I am a descendent of the Bealmear family that
settled Howard and Macon counties well before the Civil War. We have some
great documentation, including a memoir written in the 1930s and dealing
with pre-Civil War events. We also have about 37 letters that were written
between family members in Western Kentucky and Macon County starting in the
1840s. (Many of the letters were from the Atlanta, Mo., area). The family
settled in Howard County in about 1821 or 1822 and then some of them moved
up the Chariton Valley where they homesteaded. Have you any records or
information about the Bealmears? From the information I have, I believe they
farmed land about a few miles south of Atlanta. The family is actually somewhat
historic...dating back to the 1750s or so in Maryland, where one of them
reputedly served with Lafayette. In Mo., they are the subject of a court
case that made state law regarding wills. My maternal grandfather, Russel
Bealmear of Chicago, sued and broke his father's (Alfred's) second will in
the late 1940s. The case was tried in Adair County. I'd be interesed in anything
you might know. Thank you. Tom Dolan

Researching TETER and DAY
movement from Pendleton County, West Virginia. Absolom DAY, b1795 Married
Leah Teter, b1799 in WVA. They moved around the 1830's to Macon Co. MO. Their
son, Annanias DAY, b1825, married his first cousin, Mary TETER, b1827 [her
parents were: Phillip TETER, b1799 and Rebecca Graham, b 1805]. I'm trying
to connect up Absolom with his brothers back in West Virginia. Some moved
to Missouri but went back and others stopped at Ohio. Also would like to
connect to Rebecca Ann Day (Annias/Mary's daughter) marriage to Jacob Lewis
McDANIEL. Have no record of the marriage, only
approximately. What's puzzling about this one is that Jacob previously married
an Elizabeth DAY, daughter of an Edward DAY, which I do have a record of
but can't find any connections between either the families or locations (he
must have just liked the surname, the first wife died suddenly after the
marriage).
Would enjoy hearing from anyone that connects into these families.
