I think it is prudent to merge both Thomas Beloat and Joseph Merrill (sheriff) into The United States of Lyncherdom. The individual pages contain little to no information of use outside of the original article for the essay. It seems excessive to create multiple pages for subjects that are adequately covered as is.
