I too have a John Beard married to a Jane Ann Carter but he was born in 1818 in IN (father born in TN, mother born in VA, names unknown), married Jane (b. 1831 in KY from Carter-Vincent family,raised in Posey Co IN by her uncle, Edward Dyehouse after her mother Sarah died and father remarried) in 1847 in Posey Co IN, moved to Davis Co IA, then to Schuyler Co MO where they are both buried in the Coatsville Cemetery with a number of their children. Their daughter Mary Jane (b. 1863) was my Grgrandmother.
Do you have any male Beard that fits this info? I know first hand the first names can fool you. The man Mary Jane married, my Grgrandfather was called Oscar Lowe by everyone and that name even was on some birth and marriage certicates of his children, only to find out his real name was Young Oswell Lowe.
