"Besides John White, it is thought that another of Mary White Brownfield's children by her first marriage was Lydia White, who married Jacob Beeson in 1790.  Lydia White Beeson died in 1801.  She was the mother of General Henry White Beeson, a prominent citizen of Uniontown in the early 19th century."

Leonard's widow Mary White Brownfield often visited Henry White Beeson, and members of the Brownfield family recalled that she referred to General Henry as a relative.."  Source: Nixon Family Memorials by Jean W. Cox, 1970

"Between lots Nos. 24 and 26 was a space of one hundred and twenty-two and a half feet.  Next west of lot No. 24 was a fourteen and a half foot alley, then a space of 35 feet through which the original mill-race ran diagonally, then came lot No. 25.  John Wood purchased 63 feet frontage of the lot immediately west of the alley, June 23, 1791, including the old mill-race.  After many conveyances, this lot came into the possession of Jonathan Rowland, who on January 13, 1794, conveyed it to Jacob Beeson, son of Henry Beeson, the founder of the town.  He was born April 3, 1769.  His first wife was Lydia White to whom he was married November 30, 1790, and by whom he had four sons and one daughter, viz: Henry White, Jesse, Isaac, Mary, Richard.  His second wife was Judith Ann Broughton, to whom he was married November 30, 1806, and by whom he had six children, viz: Jacob, Wiliam Broughton, Lydia Ann, Job John, Strother McNeal, and Phebe S.  His first wife died February 27, 1801, and his second wife died at Niles, Michigan, in 1869."
