Notes:

The Devin Family, page 39 states that the unnamed husband of Susan Devin was the son of Philip Beck; who had married her sister, Elizabeth Devin. KLV thinks that the husband of Susan Devin is the son of Philip Beck by a prior marriage. JNT in an email dated 04.October.1998, says father of Susan Devin's husband is George Beck; a cousin of Philip Beck.

He was from Salem, IN. (Washington Co.)

Rowan County, North Carolina became Davidson County, North Carolina. Andrew Beck moved with his parents to Washington County, Indiana Territory in 1808. [Beck & Tittle Footprints; 19981001]

When Susan died, Andrew had the responsibility of a new born baby, a son, Alexander, eighteen months old, and four young daughters. He must have had help from other family members where they lived at Beck's Mill. Andrew M. Beck remarried two years after Susan died to Rebecca Barker. [JNT email 04.October.1998]. They moved to near Terrell, Kaufman County, Texas in 1854.
