Rick, Sorry about calling you "Frederic" by the way. I saw that on the post but failed to notice how you closed. As for "tradition," I am not just talking about old family trees based on research but also the family story that may have been handed down, not on paper, to the direct descendents along the way. Of course, that is un-proveable. The other part of the "tradition" that I speak of are the many published works declaring Samuel's wife to be Sarah Beall, albeit I do not have any readily available in front of me right now dated from the 1900's or earlier. I am still playing "catch-up" on this particular issue myself and will let you know what I come up with, if anything. JD
