Beckham Family

This page deals with the Beckham (Beckum) family connection to the Arrick/Orrick Family.

This microfilm image contains these marriages:

J. R. Arrick to Minerva Harrison - 27 Nov 1884 - Hardin Co, TN
J. C. Arrick to M. F. Beckum - 27 Dec 1877 - Hardin Co, TN
Sarah Arrick to John Smith - 26 Dec 1879 - Campbell, TN

J.R. Arrick is definately John Riley Arrick.

Sarah might be connected with the Campbell Co Oricks. Still working on that.


The 1880 Census in Wayne Co shows this Arick Family:
They are transcribed incorrectly in most databases as Arick.

Arrick, James - 27 (b 1853) Farmer
Arrick, Mary F. - 20 (b 1860) Wife
Beckham, Jane - 44 (b. 1836) Mother-in-Law

Wayne county is right next to Hardin. See the TN county map for a closer look.

For the rest, see the James C. Arrick page.


There's another Beckham/Arrick connection:

William Arrick, James' son, married Birdie Beckham - 1916 Picture

They are in the Hardin Co, TN census in 1910, then move to Evansville IN.
