Update: Caroline's mother's name was Eliza Texana Ryan and not Mary. Caroline had
a brother named Arthur Beckham and a sister named Lavinia Beckham. Caroline and Nathaniel
Lewis Cady had the following children: John Franklin (1899-1970), Willie Blaedon (b.1903),
Nathaniel Joseph (1897-1986), Arthur Lewis "Pete" (1901-1963), Margaret Leora
(b.1908), Mamie Claudie "Babe" (b 1910), Orville Malone "Jack"
(1912-1972), and Mary Texana.
The name O'neil that I have found listed as part of Caroline's name is probably
the name of the family that took her in when her mother, Eliza Texana Beckham, was
institutionalized. Other sources say this family was either the O'Neils or the
McNeils. Does anyone have more information on this family?
