I am currently researching my grandmother's family on my father's side. Surnames of focus include COX, BEAMAN, JOHNSTON, & FREEMAN. My Cox ancestors made there way to Oregon from North Carolina through Indiana and Missouri. I have found some evidence, most of it concrete, that goes back at least through seven generations. I have not been able to prove anything beyond that.

I also have fairly good evidence regaurding the Johnston family line. Most of my problems have been tracing my Beaman and Freeman ancestors. Much of the information found on these two families has not yet been proven and some of it is speculation. My Beaman ancestors seem to have come from Massachusetts in the 18th century. They moved through Iowa to Oregon. My Freeman Ancestors are traced back to Douglas County Missouri and seem to be linked to the Aaron Posey Freeman family. It is likely that my great-great grandmother was the daughter of either H.P Freeman (thought to be Humphrey P. Freeman) or Samuel Posey Freeman. Any help would be greatly appreciated, whether it confirms my theories or disproves them. Please feel free to email me.

Thanks much!
