I82386: Thomas BEALS (14 Mar 1719

Notes

This is a hypothesis, with some speculation that they are brothers as they are in the same place at the same time. I added this extra Seth to account for the Seth, who is an adult in 1828. Natchez, Mississippi, Adams County Sexton Records, October 4, 1825 - September 30, 1908: LNAME FNAME DATE RACE AGE DISEASE PHYSICIAN BUR COMMENTS: BOMAN MARY JUL 19, 1828 24 YRS DIED IN CHILD BED MR. SETH PURL.

Seth Purl: Found in 1830 census in Natchez, MS. with 6 males 30-40; one female 15-20; 2 males under five; one male 15-20 and one male 20-30. Perhaps he had a boarding house. He left Natchez, settled on Bayou Sara in West Feliciana, LA. (I have not found this census record).
Seth 1830 Census: one male 50-60; one male 15-20; one female 20-30; one female 15-20; two females 5-10. Infers he had several daughters; possibly three sons, Joseph, Seth W. & James L. These 3 sons migrated to Bayou Sara, W. Feliciana Par. LA, a very active shipping port, and are shown in the 1840 census there.

"The Purls had property at "Natchez Under the Hill". This parcel of land has sloughed off into the Mississippi River." I need to see some original plats to locate this property; deed records in Adam Co. MS court house. I Have copy of deeds where Seth Purl and Mary Monroe sold some of this property.

VA.Ohio.........Wh.1830.Seth.PURL... (perhaps this Seth or a relative?) How do we know, if indeed the father was named Seth, I really don't think he came South. I think this Seth is in northern Virginia, now WVA, and Ohio at that time. He is even listed on one of the censuses of WVA or OH. See this Seth's record.

Seth PURL I is in Natchez, MS in 1828 of age; Adams County MS Sexton Records, October 4, 1825 - September 30, 1908, say Seth I is 21 in 1828 then he would be b in 1807 and could not have had a son Seth II b abt 1811 KY (age 39 on LA 1850 Census); say instead that Seth I m. at age 21 and Seth II born 1811, if father of Seth II and m. in 1810 the age of Seth I b 1789, living in Natchez in 1828 & on census there in 1830. If Seth I is also father of Joseph b 1808 in PA, then Seth I would have m. by 1807 at age 21 so would be born 1786 and lived in PA then KY then Natchez MS by 1828.

If this is Seth I on 1830 Census Natchez MS: one male 50-60; one male 15-20; one female 20-30; one female 15-20; two females 5-10. Seth I age 50-60 b 1770/80. say PA where Joseph was Born, then went to KY between 1808-1811 where Seth II was born. Infers he had several daughters; (is Joseph a brother? if so then John Cunningham Purl of MO is too)

Seth Purl II: in 1830 he would now be age 19 if b in 1811: if he is the Seth Found in 1830 census in Natchez, MS. with 6 males 30-40; one female 15-20; 2 males under five; one male 15-20 and one male 20-30. Perhaps he had a boarding house. (these two census Natchez, MS are from my cousins research 50 years ago and in her book McCants Wall-I have not found these two census records on the internet yet.)

Joseph Purl b abt 1808 PA: (LA.West.Feliciana..1850.Joseph 1808.PA); d. bet. 1850-1859. owned a steamboat Ellen built in Louisville, KY in 1846 and enrolled Mar 29, 1849 with owner and master Joseph Purl of West Feliciana Parish. Joseph m.Elizabeth Jane Wilson 14 Jun 1831 W. Feliciana.

James S. Purl b abt 1814: m. Permelia Garnhart in 1837. Died intestate abt 1840-1841. Records show his residence was about six miles above the mouth of Bayou Sara. A slave, Dick, was bought at probate sale for $480 by Seth W. Purl. In 1841 Permelia Purl was appointed tutor (guardian) of James S. Purl, minor. James listed on 1840 census W feliciana p. LA 210 No Township Listed. She m. Andrew McWilliams in 1842 lived in St. Mary's Parish, LA. She m. 1st as 2nd wife of James H. Monroe, of Winchester, Fredricks Co. VA & 1830 Cincinnati, OH & Natchez, MS & Baton Rouge, LA (Catherine Craig mother of Mary who m. Seth W. Purl in 1837).

Seth W. Purl b abt 1811 KY: 1840 & 1850 W. Feliciana Parish, LA census.
shows age 39 b.in KY. he m. Mary M.C. Monroe 7 Jul 1837 W. Feliciana Parish, LA. Assumed son because of the similarity of names, compatible ages, and he named a son Cunningham, a family name. (my grandparents, they lived in Pike Co. MS)

KY.Carroll..1850.John.C..PURL....1825.KY
John Cunningham Pearl b 19 dec 1824 Carrol Co. KY d. 1892 Bentonville, AR: according to Bernard Harold Pearl, 69622 Park Street, Richmond, Michigan 48062 313-727-9630, WFT Vol 2 Submitter Tree 4386 Code 6670220. 12/98 followed boating on the Mississippi lived for several years with his brother Joseph in Louisiana. John C. was the son of John Cunningham Purl b 1762 m. to Elizabeth Coghill. He lived in Kirkville, Adair Co.MO and was a C.S.A. vet, his son Henry Boswell Purl practised dentistry at Kirksville, Mo. and moved to California.

CONFLICT: shows Seth W. I as son of Coghill, 2nd wife. Shows Seth I wife as Mary M. Monroe and son Seth II m. to unk with dau Julia Muse Purl. No Seth III. Says came to Kentucky in 1835-36 moved to Bayou Sara. La a few years later came with Joseph and James had a dispute over property, he then moved to New Orleans, La, later he moved to Magnolia, Miss in 1859. (this info is flawed in several places!)
