  • Notes 
    • Could this be the same person as "Wm. M. Beckett", born Apr 1860 in Virginia, who was living with wife Ann Beckett and children in the Lee District of Mingo County, WV at the 1900 census? Wm. Beckett and Ann were reported as married nine years (approximately 1891). No children were reported in the household. Other residents were Don Vinson, brother-in-law, born Dec 1868, and Mollie Blevins, divorced, born Sep 1875.
