Peterson C. Beall was born in Georgia according to later census notations for the State of Texas. Y-DNA testing of a descendant shows that he matches Alexander Bell b Feb 1848, which represents a large cluster of BELL men. This haplotype differs markedly from the Classic BEALL Haplotype. From this, we can conclude he is not a Beall, in the genetic sense.
