HOMEPAGE

Welcome to the Homepage of some of the heirs of "Samuel Jerome Beard Sr."

You are visitor number       Since May, 2002

I AM BEGINNING TO GET SOME INFORMATION OF DADDY'S SIDE OF THE FAMILY. WHAT I DO HAVE WAS GIVEN TO ME BY JOHN KEATH.  HIS GREAT GRAND-FATHER WAS BAMPAS' UNCLE.  I WILL ADD TO THIS PAGE AS I GAIN INFORMATION.   ANYONE HAVING CONTACT WITH JOHN SHOULD PASS ON OUR GRATITUDE FOR THIS INFORMATION.

I HAVE VISITED THE GRAVE SITES OF BAMPA'S MOTHER, HIS TWO SISTERS AND A NIECE.  I HAVE ADDED SOME FURTHER INFORMATION TO SOME OF OUR ANCESTORS.
