    Notes:

    The 1920 and 1930 census instead list her place of birth as Alabama.

    Beadie was very young when her mother died. She spent much of her youth in the households of various relatives, virtually as a servant. After her father died, she went to live with her Aunt Hattie McMillian. They lived on the right just as you enter the fairgrounds in Fayetteville. She had no real home of her own. Probably because of this, she became extremely serious, frugal and hard-working. She would work in the cotton fields with the men, then come home and prepare a large meal. She was an exceptionally good cook. She was a beautiful young woman, intelligent and hardworking. She went from nothing to having a home, family and money. Yet, because of childhood scars, she was never to feel secure and life was always a bleak place for her.
