Beulah M. (Woodruff) Becker was the daughter of Lural L. & Rose L. (Mathis) Woodruff, the granddaughter of Henry Clinton & Eva Lucina (Cantonwine) Woodruff, the great-granddaughter of David & Eliza (Elson) Cantonwine, the great-great-granddaughter of Michael and Catherine (Myers/Myres) Cantonwine, and the great-great-great granddaughter of Charles and Mary Magdalena (Scholl) Cantonwine.

Charles, the patriarch of the Cantonwine family, immigrated to America from Prussia in 1806, arriving in Philadelphia, Penn., aboard the ship Orlando. The ship's passenger list shows "Chr. Kuntentwine, single man." The name Kuntentwine later evolved to Cantonwine, and Charles appears to be the only surnamed Kuntentwine/Cantonwine to immigrate to America. Eight or so years after his arrival in Philadelphia, in about 1814, Charles married Mary Magdalena Scholl, daughter of Charles Jacob & Margaret (Fuhr) Scholl, in Bedford county, Pennsylvania.

Beulah married John Becker May 8, 1965 in Fresno, California. John died Jan 4, 1985 in Clovis, California.
