Frederick and Eve Eulice Rose's daughter Zilphia married Leonard Beckham and their son William married Leonard's sister Elizabeth Beckham. Zilphia and Leonard Beckham moved to Missouri between 1834-1837 based on the census information about the birth places of their children. I did not find any records for Leonard Beckham in Hardin County, Tennessee.

I found this note written by Henry Beckham:
