I'd been holding on to this to transcribe on rootsweb and finally got around to doing it. This will supports a few things. First, it supports that David Beckwith is the father of Susannah Beckwith married to Allen McLain of Muskingum Co Oh. It also supports my contention with supported documention that David's wife was Catherine Justice, daughter of John Justice Jr of Frederick CO MD.

Regards,
Terri McLain
