The Rameys had two publications in the field of genealogy: Cleveland County Marriages and 1850 Cleveland County Census.

Professionally, Beatrix was affiliated with the National Education Association, the North Carolina Association of Educators, the Association of Teacher Education, the National Society for the Study of Education and the National Education Association of Higher Education. She is listed in Who’s Who Among American Women. In her retirement, Bea continued her genealogy hobby and her membership in professional organizations.
