Wonderful information, Tim. Thanks for sharing. We presently have 8 different DNA lines for Beasley's (I use that as the generic reference to all spellings because it is statistically the largest). Of these, only one line has a Beazley participant. He is from a long-standing line of Beazley's who settled in Nova Scotia. It also includes a UK and Canadian Beasley and several US Beezley's (not related to my line.) Where do you live and where have you identified confirmed relatives? Do you know of any male Beazley relative of your wife who would be willing to participate in the DNA study? Would you be willing to collaborate with others finding more linkages and history of the "Beasley" surname?
