Toni, There seems to be a good bit of info on the Congressional Cemetery web pages, _http://www.congressionalcemetery.org/_ (http://www.congressionalcemetery.org/) On the far left just click on Genealogy, then Interments/Obituaries, then B. Select the "Bea" option at the top of the screen that appears, scroll down until you find Beasley. It appears all Beasleys listed are related as they are all in range 81, sites 61-65 and range 82, sites 61-65. If you click on the underlined Beasley names it will take you to two obituaries in PDF. One is for Joseph Beasley which indicates his funeral takes place from his son-in-law's, George Compton. You can always request lookups from the MLK Jr. Library based on the burial information provided for the other family members. It gives their dates of interment.
