Mary Beulah or Beulah Mary or just Beulah?
Beulah is in all the old Quaker records in the 1700's as just Beulah. Beulah was the mother of my Great Great Grandfather Ebenezer Haines. Ebenezer's son, Nathan Haines, was my Great Grandfather. Nathan wrote, and/or, spoke it to someone, his knowledge of the Haines family tree. I believe one of his children was the one that wrote it down? I base that on the fact that the transcribed copy I have of that written history, "Written by Nathan Haines", has information added to it of things that happened after Nathan Haines died. In that story it refers to Beulah as Mary Beulah Andrews. Now did Nathan remember wrong and got mixed up by what he had heard in the past with someone else and possibly somebody else told him her first name was Mary when it actually wasn't? Or was her first name really Mary?
If there were some record that would prove that it was Mary, it would help, but, all the old Quaker records, including the record of her marrying Joseph Haines, ALL, say her name was just Beulah.
I don't think many people in the 1700's had middle names did they?
According to studies done in a blurb on Ancestry.com, only about 5 percent of Americans born during the Revolutionary War era had middle names.
