Answer 1

I suspect you mean "THEIR religion was PENTACOSTAL".

Normally I don't correect people's grammar, but your next line, "Aaron Beard in1800 started the family " means that Aaron Beard was born about 1780, raised as an orphan, given the name Beard, married 1797 - 1799 and had his first child named Beard in 1800. Samuel Rowell did the exact same thing. I suspect that isn't what you meant.

The fact you were not clear in your first line makes me suspect you are not clear in your others.

People who are not related and do not know anything about the Rowell or Beard families may help you, but you have to give them some clues.

There are no Samuel Rowells in La or Ms in 1880 in th eLDS 1880.

There are none there in 1850.

There are no Samuel Rowells in the USA in 1800.

has some Samuel Rowells b. MS before 1900, but LONG after 1800. They must have been hiding for the 1880 census.

Those lookups are as much as I'm willing to do on a wild goose chase. Others may want to trump me. If they do, you are lucky.

If they do not, please edit your question, or delete it and post another, with

Samuel Rowell's birth date, birth year or birth decade

Samuel Rowell's spouse's name

Samuel Rowell's death date, death year or death decade

The same for Aaron Beard.

Answer 2

Go to Ancestory.com & see if there are any Beards and/or Rowells looking for contacts.  People post there asking for relatives, etc.  You can see who else is searching for those names. You may also be able to see some family trees if they're open to the public - some are & some aren't.
