Rachel Beaman married Elias Hicks in Owen County, Indiana, on December 22, 1831.[1] This family appears adjacent to other Beaman and Hicks families in Owen County in 1840.[2]
Rachel appears to have died before 1850. Sometime between 1840 and 1850, Elias relocated with their children to McNairy County, Tennessee, where they appear without Rachel in 1850.
Research Notes
The death date is a rough estimate based on the fact that Rachel appears to have been in this household in 1840 but does not appear with the family in the 1850 census. The unsourced details in this profile came from the original GEDcom file upload and the original sources are unclear.
