Bio

Ananias was buried in the front yard of his old home place. My first visit to the site was in Jan 1979 along with my father Bobbie Lewis, my uncle Hancel and my son Michael (Mike). It was a bitter cold windy day but we were able to cover the grave site with a 4'w x 6'l x 4" thick cement slab. We also placed a small cement marker that looked like it had been inscribed with a nail on the slab and a stainless steel marker inbeded in the slab with "Ananias Beckworth, 1814-1874" stamped on it. In 1994 James Maxwell Beckworth, a great-grandson of Ananias' second wife, Jane Davis' branch of the family, and myself, placed a permanent marble head and foot stone at the site. We felt something a little more permanent should be put there instead of just the cement marker inscribed with a nail. There has always seemed to be some question about his exact date of birth and death. Everyone agreed on the Month and Year so those were all we put on the marble. Allison Beckworth
