DNA FINDINGS 11/15/09, rev.11/25/09, rev.7/17/10, rev.10/24/10

First DNA Test--a Match---In August 2008, we discovered a DNA match between my George Beale (code 130) and with a William Beale (code 701) from Charles Co, MD.
See my DNA posting of 8/23/08 for details & family chart.
This William was thought to be the son of Thomas Beale (1700-1777). Thomas owned land called Carrot Bed in Charles Co, MD.

Second DNA Test----a Match---we discovered (11/25/09) the family of Robert Bealle (code 702) of Waldorf, MD is also a match to George Beale (code 130) and William Beale (code 701). Both code 701 & code 702 share the same ancestor Thomas Beale (1700-1777).
As you can see below, code 701 and code 702 only differ by one marker. George Beale differs by 2 markers from code 701, and 3 markers from 702 (out of approx 37 markers). Click below and look for codes 130, 701 & 702 (about 1/3 way down, data in brown background):

Since we know code 701 and code 702 share a common ancestor (Thomas Beale 1700-1777) and differ by one marker out of 37 markers, we can assume George Beale links to the same family also (differing by only 2 or 3 markers out of 37 markers).

Third DNA Test----no Match---we discovered (July 17, 2010) that Beales (code 136) descended from Jane Beale (died 1733) in St Marys County, MD are NOT related to neighboring Bealles of Charles Co, MD. See new data below for more details.

Fourth DNA Test----no Match per initial results 24 October 2010. We tested a Virginia Beale, descended from Thomas Beale who arrived VA in 1640. DNA does not support grandfather's thesis that VA Beale was our family!

Data we found on Robert Bealle (code 702)

I searched census data for Charles County, MD. for Beale and Bealle (Geo Beale has DNA link to Charles Co Bealles).

1800---Penelope (Ford?) Bealle (wife Chas), Ann (Penn?) Bealle (wife of Wm Bealle), John F. Bealle
1810---Penelope Beale, Ann P. Beale
1860---Allison Ford Bealle b 1823, Elizabeth Bealle age 73 b 1787 with son George Bealle age 42 b 1818
1880---John age 50, Charles A. age 31, A. Ford age 56, George F. age 63
1900---Charles A. age 48, son Geo. W. age 15, Allison F. age 49, John W.F. age 55, son Geo. F. age 12
1910---Charles A. age 63, son Geo. W. age 25, A.F., J.W. age 65, son Geo. F. age 22
1920---Mary T. (widow Charles A.), son Geo. W. age 33, John F. age 75, son Geo. F. age 31
1930---Sallie C. (widow John F.), Geo. F. age 42, George age 44

NOTE---Multiple GEORGE BEALLEs born in this Charles County family back to 1818.

I conducted a ZABASEARCH and found multiple Bealles living in Charles County, MD. and got phone #'s.

I called Robert Bealle of Waldorf, Charles Co, MD who told me:
1)- This Bealle family moved to Charles County from Prince George County ca 1740-1760.
2)- They were originally from Maidstone, Kent, England.
3)- They bought estate Carrott Bed Enlarged (this agrees with my research).
4)- The family currently still lives on this property in Charles County, MD.
5)- Many Bealles buried in local Episcopal graveyard.
6)- George Ferdinand Bealle was a WW1 vet, had no kids, lived to 90 years.
7)- Robert's wife Bernice has a family chart and other papers with much data (which they will share after she returns).

Robert & Bernice Bealle sent me extensive family data which states:
1)- William Beale from Maidstone, England, a Patentee of Wolf's Den (Prince George Co, MD). Patent issued Nov. 3, 1722, "by the Grace of God and King Charles II"--317 acres begining at a white oak standing on the East side of the NW Branch of the Potomack River, etc. (*outlined in red--See research below)
2)- William's son was Thomas Beale who married Mary Edgar. The Beale "clan" moved into Charles Co June 3, 1742 when Thomas Beale acquired a 40 acre tract known as Carrot Bed Enlarged.
3)- Thomas Beales children were Thomas Jr., John, Charles (died Jan 12, 1793, mar. Penelope Ford 1756-Oct. 28, 1840), Sarah, Martha (mar. John Barker), Ann, Mildred, Esther (Jan 13, 1759-Aug17, 1819, married Samuel Richards 11/5/1762-6/2/1801).
Data on 3 (Thomas Beale) mostly agrees with our findings, as our DNA match William (code 701) was thought to be the son of this same Thomas Beale (1700-1777).

We have just completed our DNA search on Robert Bealle of Waldorf, MD.
Findings just in indicate a match between Robert Bealle (code 702) of Waldorf, MD, our George Beale of St Croix family (code 130), and our previous match of William Beale of Charles County (code 701).
To add to the excitement, Robert Bealle of Waldorf, MD continues to live on the land Carrot Bed Enlarged bought by his ancestors in the 1700's.

* Research on Wolf's Den---not our family.
1)- In 1718, William Beall patented "Wolf's Den", 317 acres.
Nearby, William Beall's uncle James Beall patented "Drumeldry", 225 acres.

2)- James Beall, bapt. Scotland Feb 5, 1652, uncle of William, owner of "Drumeldry", is the son of Alexander Beall of Scotland.

3)- James Beall born 1652 is code 414 on DNA research. As you can see on the DNA markers, we are NOT related to this James Beall born 1652.
