According to a family member, John Thompson Beasley married Emma Leonard in 1908, adopting her son, Paul David, whom she'd had from a previous relationship. However, in an obituary, it is stated that William Beasley (JT's elder brother) was her husband. In any case, Emma died in 1919 after a surgical procedure (according to obituary) or while giving birth to a child who also perished (according to a family member), leaving behind both men and little Paul David.
In 1922, John and Lucy Wareing-Cauble married. Lucy gave birth to Orpha Ruth Beasley as a result of that union.
