      Notes 
      • George and Elizabeth left Rowan (now Davidson) County, North Carolina in 1807 and settled in Indiana Territory and with their older sons, John Jacob, George Jr., and Andrew M., they build Becks Mill south of Salem, Washington County, Indiana. The old mill, rebuilt in 1864, still stands at the mill stream near Becks Hill, and was the first grist mill in the 30-50 mile area. This is still printed on some maps and atlases. -JNT email 04.October.1998 at 14:48.

        Many stories of the Beck's are written in the Washington County, Indiana history. [Beck & Tittle Footprints; John Charles Beck biography prepared 19981001].
