John Beal was issued a land patent 8/20/1838 for land in Sec 26 Township 24N Range 11E.
The county on this record says Blackford. Other possible members of this family from Land
Patent Records are Issac Beal Sec 29 24N 11E, James Beal Sec 10 34N 11E,Frederick Beall
Sec 7 23N 11E, and George Beall Sec 15 25N 11E. The family seems to of came to migrated to
Indiana in the 1836-1839 period. I have traced John Beal to Richland Twp, Madison county,
Indiana, but these records are earlier. There is also a Rachel Beal, a woman filing for
land and got a patent on 8/20/1838 but in Whitley County. I am also trying to find info
for her. Are there any early Bio Sketches for Blackford County that might list this
family?
