McCuin Family
Narrative
John Luther McCuin married Mildred Catharine Beaumont, the daughter of James Beaumont and Frances Buckley Beaumont. The Beaumont family moved to Prince William County from nearby Loudoun County in the late 1860's and settled on two parcels of land totaling 55 acres on the north side of Catamount Branch, a mile north of Catharpin. Their farm was bounded on the east by a 160 acre tract owned by James Buckley, the brother of Frances, and on the west by what is now Sanders Lane.
After their marriage in September 1873, John and Mildred McCuin lived on the northern end of the Beaumont family farm and raised 7 children there. In 1885, after the deaths of her parents, Mildred inherited the northern most 8 1/3 acres of the Beaumont farm and her two brothers owned the remainder. John and Mildred lived on the 8 1/3 acre tract until their deaths. In 1909 the McCuin children, as heirs to the property, sold the tract to their cousin William T. Beaumont. Today that tract is GPIN #7400-72-3718 and part of GPIN # 7400-71-3692.
John and Mildred McCuin and a child are believed to have been buried in the McCuin Family Cemetery. The location of the cemetery site has not been found but it might be on the 8 1/3 acre parcel where they lived their lives. At this time, the exact location of the McCuin Family Cemetery is not known.
