V.6 Brashears/Breshears Families of TN, MO, etc Tapa dura - 2004

Información de la editorial

This book is about Basil and Middleton Brashears and their (possible) Brashears, Breshears, Beshears, Boshears, and other descendants in Lawrence Co, Tennessee; Benton, Polk, and neighboring counties, Missouri; the Boise area of Idaho; the Okanagan Valley in Washington; eastern Oklahoma; and a few other places. The family story is that when a group of brothers, cousins, and nephews left Lawrence Co, TN, in the 1830s, each of them changed one letter in their surname. The sons of John Brashears, Sr (married Mary Berry) kept the old spelling. The sons of Henry Brashears, Sr (married Eleanor Hardin) changed to Breshears. A brother who moved to Arkansas, William Arthur Brashears (m. Anna Etheridge) changed his surname to Breashears. A nephew in Arkansas, Berry Brashears (married Anna ____) changed his name to Boshears. The three cousins in Benton, Polk, and Hickory County went by Middleton Brashears, Nathan Turner Breshears, and Alexander Brashears. Some of the descendants of the oldest brother, Basil Brashears, Sr, used Beshears, Boshears, and Brashears as their surname. Visit my website WWW.CharlesBrashear.com for a complete table of contents.
