- Veda (Roberson) McBeth
- She was born in Utah to William E. and Isabel (Luts) Roberson. The 1900 US Census record shows her living in La Sal, Utah at the age of one. By 1910 the family was living in Moab, where her father was a sheep rancher. Sometime in her teens or twenties, the family moved east to Mack, Colorado, where her parents owned the general store. The family lived together in a home directly behind the store and Veda worked as a sales person. The 1920 US Census shows that she later boarded with Dick and Beida Stewart. She married Raymond Lester McBeth, a sheep rancher and machinist, in Grand Junction on June 19, 1921. They homesteaded together in Westwater Canyon, in rough country about forty miles from Mack. She later ran the Mack Store with her brothers.
