Same as Beale Street in San Francisco....Edward F. Beale, a Lieutenant in the Navy (which is unusual in itself) in 1848 war with Mexico. most famous as an engineer and surveyor for building the Beale Road across the southwest to California from New Mexico using Camels in one part of it ( now old route 66) ...also was the first to send word back to Washington D.C. of the Sutter gold mine strike in California of 1848-starting the gold rush of 1849. Had amazing political and family connections at that time. May have tie-ins with the legendary Beale Treasure Code out of Virginia, but unknown. In fact all of this is " unknown", since most stories about Memphis Beale street say it was named after a forgotten or unknown Mexican War hero---but this is the only Mexican War" hero " out there named Beale, and was obviously well known in his day.
