About the last name of Dismuke or Dismukes. The use of the "s" at the
end of the name can be considered correct. The omission of the "s"
could also be considered correct.
If you are doing research, use both variations of the name in your search.
Documents found, may use both variations of the name within the same branch
of the family. Even in cemeteries, the same family will use both
spellings. Instead of fighting over which spelling is correct, just
accept that both spellings are correct unless you have original source
documentation that can track the specific usage of either spelling over a
period of time.
Regarding the first name Beth------. Variations of this name are
Bethania, Bethenia, Bethinia, Bethena, Bethany, Betheny
OR.....perhaps Beth-- ia was just a nick name for Eliza----beth.
There are no print records which show any consistent spelling. The
Macon County, Alabama marriages records indexed her first name as Elizabeth.
So there is the possibility that her name was just Elizabeth and the Bethany
part of the name was just a nickname derived from Elizabeth. On the
other hand, the 1870 Census has her initials as "B E". So it could
very well be Beth---- Elizabeth |

1886 - 1887 - Both Bethania and John
Stewart pass away during these years. The dates given in family trees
are very exact. However, they do not provide the source of the death
dates. I suspect they came from a family's bible or personal family
trees. Texas did not keep records of deaths during this period nor
have there been any grave markers found. |
