: I'm looking for a lead to follow-up an
: interesting Beall family story. Sometime in
: the 1750's, this man John Beall, took up
: with a woman who was not his wife. It being
: Maryland and Catholic (presumably) with no
: divorce available, John Beall simply allowed
: all his subsequent children take the surname
: of his 'new wife', which was Wooden. Oral
: tradition in the family has it that John
: Beall's father and grandfather were both
: named John Beall, and that while his father
: was born in Maryland (Baltimore?), his
: grandfather was born in Scotland.
: Anyone with any info on this man is
: repectfully asked to share that info with me
: and I promise to do the same with all the
: 'downstream' info I have. Email directly at
: : cgordon622@dejazzd.com Thanks, Charles
