"It was in the month of January,1820 while keeping the Washington Hotel, that I first saw and became acquainted with Beale"
"In person he was about six feet in height, with jet black eyes and hair the same color...but his distinguishing feature was a dark and swarthy complexion, as if much exposure to the sun and weather had discolored him...He was a model of manly beauty favored by the ladies..." THE BEALE PAPERS

It is apparent from the above "authentic statements" description that this "distinguishing feature" was permanent and not a temporary condition like a sunburn.
...and the "unknown author" strongly pointed out this "distinguishing feature" for purposeful reason.

Nov, Dec Jan, Feb, March.......all great months for maintaining a dark and swarthy tan in Virginia! Tourist flock there all the time in the dead of winter for just that reason...:laughing7:

...and how many railroad locomotives existed during the 1820's in St Louis or the Spanish southwest?

The method of transportation is never mentioned in the Beale Papers, the use of wagons is an assumption.

Three members of the Beale Party walked into Buford's Tavern, and a round of ale for all.
Pascal Buford asks these strangers how they intend to pay for this, and the elected captain of the Beale party produced a leather bag, pouring jewels on the bar top.
My name is Beale, and I believe these will cover several rounds.
Pascal quickly scooped up the jewels while asking from where they all came.
Beale's two companions replied in unison-
"He went to Jareds"!

I think you have a warped idea of what the history of the time being talked about truly was.
He was a model of manly beauty favored by the ladies. What ladies? This would tell us a lot! The idea that 6 months in the sun working and a few weeks on a horse back to Virginia was just a sunburn is a stinker!

This man was a German by his name. Possibly we should start there if one wishes to look at originality of family!

You reckon he slipped away from Morriss' Washington Hotel to visit Buzzard's Roost on Commerce Street a street over?

All this time I thought he was British? The first Captain Thomas Beale was sent over to Virginia by King Charles. Which country was he King in?

Beale is definitely an English name, derived from Anglo-Saxon, Old French, and Old English, the meaning "fair handsome man". Very reminiscent of "model of manly beauty" description of Thomas J Beale in the Beale Papers.

Americanized spelling of German Biehl or BĂŒhl (see Buehl).

Amazing, you guys don't know this!

Or was it just a few people who stayed one night at a time going to and from somewhere a few times a month. Like tavern's were set up for.

Not even close, not in any current or extinct dialect of German.

https://www.ancestry.com/name-origin?surname=beal

Old English beag ‘ring’, here probably used in the sense ‘river bend’, or an unattested personal name Beaga derived from this word + halh ‘nook’, ‘recess’. French (BĂ©al): topographic name for someone who lived by a mill race, from the Lyonnaise dialect term bĂ©al, bezale, bedale (of Gaulish origin). Americanized spelling of German Biehl or BĂŒhl (see Buehl).

OK, nothing at all to do with German.
