Some Thoughts on Captain Thomas Beale/Beall

[TN_Guest1523]

Here's a question for you guys....who "exactly" was this Thomas Beale?

This is only the lower part, as I have seen this recently and the Thomas Beale was under the probate sale of property that was above his name.

Do we think it's more likely that Pierre Lafitte simple used the name of a New Orleans acquaintance (Thomas Beale), or that he actually WAS Thomas Beale, using an alias to evade capture? Wasn't both Thomas Beale and Pierre Lafitte arrested/imprisoned in New Orleans? Were they the same person?

And I think that is what exactly happened; "TJB"... THOMAS "Jean" BEALE (Sr.). Pierre used his brother's name, too.
