Linda, What a generous offer to do lookups in the Mercer Co. books. I have looked at them both at one time and seem to remember seeing something in one of them and when I returned home discovered I hadn't written it down. Looking for the parents names of Oren Hubert Beckett. I know there is an article about his son Leonard in one of them-that may be where I saw it. Oren was married to Edna Keatley. Also wonder if there is anything about another Beckett-a Thomas Allen who was married to Pauline Roles. They are both buried in Walnut Grove Cem. in Bluefield. Would be interested in Thomas's parents names or any children he and Pauline had. Thank you for your time!
