I'm not sure if Mr. Beauchamp was born into slavery as the 1937 interview only indicates he lived in Eufaula, Alabama for 50 years, that would be since approximately 1887. He indicates his father was also named Nathan. His mother was an Indian girl named Mimi, she died 5 years after freedom, approximately 1870. There is also another Nathan Beauchamp 1908 - 1969 buried in Antioch Cemetery in Eufaula.
