The RAY - BEEMAN Genealogy Lines

The Ray Family Crest The Beeman Family Crest

My thanks and appreciation goes to my late Aunt, Edna 'Chafin' Lawson for giving me the final nudge to start this work and providing me with a great deal of information about my family lines and who they were. To Edna Ruth 'Howell' Lawson, Aunt Ednas daughter, who got Aunt Edna started in Genealogy research and is continuing to do research, who has shared with me the results of her many hours of research. To two others who have shared their research efforts with us are Pamela Alice 'Beeman' Droney and Patricia Lou 'Beeman' Morton, my wife's cousins. Appreciation and thanks also goes to The Society of Genealogy of Durkee for providing us with people, dates, places, and stories about these people.
To all those who have shared, I am especially grateful, without their help this genealogy data would not be here. To those I have named and the many I haven't named, my heart felt thanks for your support.
