Not sure what you think this information proves? The information regarding a "Thomas Beall" has been around for a long time but note that the name is Beall, and not Beale, so absolutely no possible way of confirming this assumed identity. At best an interesting sidebar.

As for the old Robert Morris info, not sure what you think this info is really doing for you in regards to establishing that the grand adventure ever took place? But another interesting sidebar all the same.

Question, do you think the author of the Beale papers misspelled Morriss on purpose? Or do you think the information source simply misspelled Morriss?

Well, he did spell it two different ways. The census people also misspelled it in most of the census, though not all.

This is from the same diary, printed and a copy of the original passenger list from the boat going down the Mississippi in 1816 .

"Besill"....:laughing7:...."CTJBBB3" Besill, Beale, Beall......Jean, can you not see what your own fascination is allowing you to manufacture? You're clearly using the identities of at least three different people to form one imaginary character history. Maybe you should step away from the mystery for a while. :thumbsup:
