2. Martha Ann Florence was born on March 3,1834 in Buncombe County, North Carolina. When her father, Josiah, settled in Benton County, his land entry was just South of a two hundered acre entry granted to a William F. Beasly. This was in 1832, under the Provision of the Homestead Law in Tennessee. Martha Ann met and married James Calvin Beasly on Febuary 7, 1858 in Benton County. James Calvin Beasly was born circa 1836 in the town of Humphreys, Tennessee. His parents were Barney F. Beasly and Francis McGill, and was the grandson of William F. Beasly. James Calvin Beasly died on October 12, 1868 when he was shot to death by a neibor in a dispute over the neighbor's cattle getting loose and grazing on James' property. Martha Ann, pregnant with twins, dragged her dying husband into the house. She miscarried both children as a result. James C. Beasly was buried in the family cemetery on October 15, 1868. The twins are buried in tiny caskets above their father in the same grave. The Beasly family burial ground contains about 28 graves in a small, unkept cemetery surrounded by a barbed wire fence. Martha Ann stayed on the family farm and raised their five other children by herself.
