Greetings to L23.
This is my first day on RootsChat.
I am tracing Becks in Dumfries. I have screeds of data from IGI and Census.
Sorry I could not see how to directly message you. So I am replying to your most immediate posting.
I assume you are linked back to the Alexander Becks of Johnstone (born 1709, 1734 and 1757).
Of special interest is the genetic factor Huntingdon's Chorea in my Beck ancestry. James Beck, son of Alexander, bn Johnstone, 1782 seems to have been a carrier.
I believe I am linked to the family of John Beck and Elizabeth Sloane of Cummertrees, married ca 1799, through their son William (bn 1800).
I have not linked this family to the Johnstone family yet.
Do you know of any HD in your Beck ancestry?
Thanks,
Paul
