This lady is my third great grandmother, married to Jonathan Beckley sometime between 1807 and 1812, probably between 1810 and
1811. They were residing in Canaan Twp, Litchfield County, Connecticut by 1814, from wence they left then for Athens County,
Ohio.

Looking at the Barbour Colection, there are two women of the correct age to be this lady. One was the daughter of Joseph Collins
and Grace Brown, born in Somers, Tolland County, Ct., listed as Sarah The other listed as Sally, as she subsequently signed her
name on legal documents in Ohio, was born to Nathaniel Collins and Rachel Walling of Barkhamsted in Litchfield County. ... These
choices of course assume that no one else moved to the area to be a candidate.

Sally and Jonathan had two children while still in Connecticut, H. Nelson and Charlotte.

Does any of this look familiar to anyone. You can reach me at , Thanks, Mike Beckley
