Great grandson of Richard and Martha (Cook) Beasley
Grandson of Robert and Katherine Beasley.
Son of Henry and (Orpha Ann) Opie (Collins)* Beasley
*Some folks think she (Opie) is William Collings' daughter because William's son Micajah was the bondsman for her marriage. However,
Micajah's wife was Martha Beasley, so the closer connection could have been through the Beasley family. Any documentation is welcome. The marriage license of Opie's son, Robert, seems to read that her first name was Alpha.
Father of:
1. Velina Beasley - born Jul. 20, 1878
2. Franklin Beasley - born Feb. 8, 1880
CO. I 24 VA. INF. C.S.A.
(married Martha (or Mary) Jane "Sis" Mitchell, 8th child of George Washington Mitchell, Sr.)

"Robert M. Beasley is in my family tree. He was the son of Henry Beasley and Orpha Ann Collins. I have in my records that he was born in 1838 at Patrick County, Virginia. I thought you might like to know. Robert was the brother of Lockey Beasley Terrell."*
*If one uses Robert's marriage license to calculate his birth date, he was born in June of 1841...I believe June 9th.
