Will Book:1, p. 1 Wellsburg, West Virginia:
Ninian's will mentions only seven children--Bethann, Nancy, John, Bazalees, Benjamin, Eliza and Samuel, and Codicils, mention George, Mary and James.
Witnessed by Cornelius Gist, James Gist and Giles Brookes.

Marriage. On Mar 7, 1780 in Frederick Co, MD m. Anna Maria Stricker, later referred to as "Mary" b. Frederick Co., 27 Jan 1763 and d. Feb 1843, Brooke Co, VA/WV, daughter of George Stricker, b. 25 Jun 1734 and d. bef. Dec 1810 in Ohio Co, VA/WV, and his wife Catherina Springer.
Frederick County, MD, census of 1790, Ninian Beall and Anna Maria had 3 boys under 16 and 4 girls. Two houses away was brother, James Beall, with 2 males 16 or over, 2 under 16, and 3 females. Move West: Within a year of father James' death (1795), his family moved west. On 12 Apr 1796 Basil Beall, Ninian Beall and Samuel Beall of Frederick Co, "which Samuel is the eldest son of the said Basil Beall who was the eldest son of James Beall, deceased, conveyed to Martin Waltz, for £513/5 shillings, 40 a Boiling Spring and 50 a Mistaken Rival, "part of the tract heretofore conveyed by Fielder Gaunt to Matthias Pooley for 100 acres" plus 6 3/4 a Fathers Lecture. "It is not clear why Basil and Samuel signed the deed or why James did when he was not a party. The brothers apparently had made some agreement among themselves. "Ninian already had land grants of 1,385 acres on Middle Island Creek, Ohio County, VA/WV in 1786; sister-in-law Elizabeth Stricker and father-in-law Col. George Stricker also had Ohio County land grants at that time. Middle Island Creek appears to be south of Wheeling, perhaps near McMechen's, where George Stricker settled (Jefferson Co, Ohio).

His father was James Beall and Mother unknown. James died 1795 in Frederick County, Maryland.
