Searching for the first two wives of Asa Lott Warren Veal. b.6/14/1841 in Madison Co.,GA. d. 11/15/1910 in Wise Co.,TX.
With first wives had at least six children: James, Emma, John Thomas (who was my g-granddad)Eddward, Lee and George. The oldest boys were born in Mexia TX. Asa's third marriage was to a Mrs. Nancy A. Beazely in Dallas Co., TX. on 1/28/1886. They had three more children: May, George and one called "bunk" (possibly Walter). Just for record, this is not the Asa Veal that married Matilda bird. That Asa was the brother of my Asa's father,Alexander "Sandy" Veal. My Asa's son, John Thomas married a women named Jimmie Isabelle Kennedy. They lived in Lawton, OK. Their children were, John Thomas Jr.(Johnney boy), William (Bill),Asa/Acie Bernard (Barney)Vernon (my grandfather) Matthew and Mary Irene. They had another daughter, Clara Gwendolyn that died young from smallpox. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

The Asa Lott W. Veal you wrote about is the Great Grandfather of my husband, Louis Monte Veal, who died in 1999. According to our family records (i.e., a letter from Asa Lott's brother John O. Veal) his parents were Alexander Veal and Sarah J. Velis. When I last saw this letter, it was in the possession of my father-in-law, Houston Lee Louis Veal, in Fort Worth, Texas. Houston told me that his father was Asa Edwin Veal, and that his grandparents were Asa Lott Veal and Nancy Slaughter, a woman of Indian Decent. I have no other information about her. For the record, I have one daughter, Lisa Marie Veal Lines. She lives in Boston with her husband, Mark Genest. My name is Mary Lou Veal, and I live in Greensboro, NC.

Could you please supply the source of your information about Asa Veal's birth and death? My husband's great-grandfather was also named Asa Lott W. Veal and was born in Madison County, Georgia in 1841.

I believe it is the same Asa. I have Asa Lott Warren Veal born: June 14th 1841 in Madison Co. GA. Died November 15th 1910 in Wise Co. Tx. He was the son of Alexander "Sandy" Veal and Sara Jane Godfrey.
"Sandy" had a brother named "Asa" and he married a women named Matilda Bird. The two Asa's are often confused because they lived in the same area of Texas for awhile.
Asa Lott Warren had 11 siblings (I have most of their info if you are interested) and he had 8-9 children, the last three with a widow named Nancy Beazely (they married in 1886)The only info I have on Asa's first wives is some census information from Navarro County Texas in 1870 and part of a letter (not in my posession) written from "Sandy" Veal to his son Asa in Texas, mentioning a wife "leaving a child"???
If all this helps I have more and would love to exchange info with you.

I married Louis Monte Veal in 1966. He is the son of Houston Lee Louis Veal, son of Asa Edwin Veal, son of Asa Lott Veal. This geneology work is for my daughter Lisa Veal Lines, who lives in Boston. I'd love to exchange information with you. Have information from Asa Lott's discharge papers and several letters.

Carolyn, Asa Lott Warren Veal (6/14/1841 - 11/15/1910) is the son of Alexander "Sandy" Veal (9/16/1808 - 3/24/1892) and grandson of James Veal (5/19/1779 - abt. 1857). This Alexander lived his entire life in the Madison Co., Ga. area. He is listed as the head of his household on the 1840, 1850, 1860, 1870 and 1880 Madison Co., Ga. censuses. Alexander was married to Sarah Jane Godfrey (8/31/1821 - 3/17/1882) on 12/5/1839 in Clarke Co., Ga. and they had 5 sons and 7 daughters of which Asa was the oldest.

The Alexander Veal (abt. 1800 - 7/19/1882) who lived in Paulding Co., Ga. was distantly related, but was NOT the same man. The Alexander Veal in Paulding Co. is from the Dekalb/Putnam Co. Georgia line of Veals. The Alexander Veal from Paulding Co., Ga. had no sons, only daughters (11 of them). He is listed on the 1840 Newton Co, Ga. census and the 1850, 1860, 1870 and 1880 Paulding Co., Ga. censuses.
