1-2-4-7-5-5. JONAH BECKWITH

                            [George-5, Phillips-4, Jonah-3, Matthew-2, Mathew-1]

                           Jonah was born c1765 [c1772] probably in Bristol CT, apparently died 1840-50 OH [Ancestral File gives death date as c1844 Lake Co. OH]. By 1790 he is in Farmington CT and by 1800 he is in Berkshire Co. MA. He is said to have married in 1787 [Ancestral File gives location as Rocky Hill, Hartford Co. CT] to Hannah DEMING, daughter of Giles DEMING and Hannah WRIGHT of Bristol CT. She was born 15 Nov 1767 Rocky Hill, Hartford CT [Linda Radcliff states baptised 15 Nov 1767 Suffield CT].

     In 1790 Jonah bought land in Farmington CT; his sureties were Benjamin BECKWITH and George BECKWITH of Bristol CT. That same year in Farmington CT Jonah served as executor of the estate of Benjamin BECKWITH with Benjamin’s widow Mehitabel. Is this the  Mabel BECKWITH in Farmington in 1790 with family 0-2-2? If so, then the George BECKWITH of Bristol CT in 1790 with family 3-3-6 must be the George BECKWITh who was a surety in the land transaction of that year. Surely there must be a family relationship of some sort here!  He is named in the distribution of George’s estate as a child (and heir).

     I find a marriage at age 15 in MA at this time period less likely than one at age 22, hence the difference in birth years for Jonah. Not all of the children listed below are proven to be those of Jonah, but based on proximity (from census) and from information received from Hubert S. Beckwith and Virgil Huntley, I believe the males are correctly placed.

     Ancestral File gives names of two other children as a daughter Caroline and a son Roswell born 1811 MA.

1-5-2-8-1-2. PERRY GREEN [PEREGRINE] BECKWITH

                           (Peregrine 5- Elijah 4- Joseph 3- Joseph 2- Mathew 1)

                        son of Peregrine and Lydia, born 1760-1770 [30 Mar 1768 Lyme CT], will proved 21 Mar 1843 Ashtabula Co. OH [died 1842 Ashtabula Co. OH]. Married 23 Feb 1791 to Polly CHAPMAN, perhaps daughter or niece of Capt. Edward CHAPMAN and Molley HUNTLEY. She was born 1 Sept 1774 CT, died 1852 Ashtabula Co. OH.

     Paul Beckwith in The Beckwiths identifies this “Perry Green” as son of David BECKWITH, the Revolutionary War Veteran who died in Attica NY 1834. David’s son William W. BECKWITH moved to Bronson, Huron Co. OH. Also in Huron Co. OH is a Perry Green BECKWITH born c1795 CT. That Perry Green BECKWITH may be the son of David, not this one who was born 1760-1770. In 1830 OH “Parry BECKWITH” born 1790-1800 (son of David?) is in Ridgefield Twp., Huron Co. OH. There are “P.G. BECKWITH” (born 1760-1770) and “P.G. BECKWITH Jr.” (born 1790-1800) in New Lyme, Ashtabula Co. OH in 1830. P.G. is not there in 1840, but “Perry G.” (born 1790-1800) is. He is also there in 1850 (aged 50y). Based on this census information, and not finding any other Perry Green (or whatever spelling) BECKWITHs of the same time period, I am placing Perry [Perigreen] BECKWITH in this position as son of Elijah.

     VIrgil Huntley gives names of two additional children: Phillips of Colebrook OH in 1870, and Adelia who was deceased.

Married 2nd to Naomi TILLITSON(?), probably daughter of John TILLOTSON and Naomi HUNTLEY. She was born 13 Nov 1771 CT, died 18 Aug 1855 age 84y 9m 5d, buried Dodgeville Cemetery. She remarried to David HOWARD.

     I have some apprehensions about placing Wheeler as son of Titus. However, this Wheeler is the only one of his generation with that name, at least as far as I have been able to find. So here he is placed.

     Wheeler is named as heir of Elizaeth Beckwith HOWARD, wife of David HOWARD and mother of Wheeler, should she die before her husband David HOWARD. According to the Huntley Genealogy, John TILLOTSON who is buried in Free Baptist Church Cemetery in Sherburne NY named daughter Naomi BECKWITH in his will.

1-7-1-7-2-2. SAMUEL BECKWITH

                           son of Samuel, born 30 Sept 1785 [1 Oct 1782 according to descendants, based on handwritten copies of a supposed family Bible. The Bible has been “lost”. However, the dates for later children match up, so this is a likely date of birth. His place of birth is in question. As seen on census records of his children, it is one of the following: CT, MA, NH,  or NY. One descendant believes it to be England or Scotland.] He died 14 Jan 1846 Marshall Co. IL. No grave is marked for Samuel. There is no empty space next to his wife, however, there is one empty space in the plot belonging to his son Zera(h) in Putnam Co. IL.

     Samuel married 14 July 1810 Oran, Onandago Co. NY [Cazenovia, Madison Co. NY?] to Lydia GRIDLEY, daughter of Asahel GRIDLEY and Elizabeth Percival. She was born 12 Mar 1793 [25 Feb 1793] at Ballston, Saratoga Co. NY [or Oran NY?], and died 30 Apr 1862 McLean Co. IL. She is buried in Cumberland Cemetery, Marshall Co. IL.

     The first reference found that definitely applies to this Samuel is the marriage record from the “family Bible”. In 1816 he moved his family to what was then Dearborn Co. IN, settling in T3N R2W (Indiana Survey) in the NW 1/4 of Sec 3. Samuel BECKWITH (BECKWORTH) and Joshua SCRANTON bought the land on 30 Jan 1816.

     He is placed here based solely on circumstantial evidence: Proximity to Fosdick BECKWITH in Clermont Co. OH in 1820, and the first name Fosdick. Ezekiel and Fosdick could be brothers, but their ages make them at least 20 years apart- not impossible, but less likely than father and son.

1-7-2-3-1-2? EZRA BECKWITH

                             [Jesse Jr.-5, Jesse-4, Oliver-3, John-2, Mathew-1]

                             son of Jesse Jr. and Esther, born 5 May 1779 Lyme CT, died 27 Mar 1857 Omro WI, buried at Omro WI. Married 30 Mar 1807 to Parnell HURLBUT, daughter of Matthias HURLBUT and Clemence KELLOGG. She was born 16 Jan 1787 Richmond MA, died 30 Aug 1864. Omro WI was first called “Beckwith Town”.

      [The Beckwiths says he moved to Bloomfield NY and died in WI. He is said to have married to Parnol CRANE of Rochester NY. She would have been born 1780-90 (probably closer to 1780), and died 1830-40.]

     On the same page in Franklin WI in 1840 is Nelson BECKWITH (Reuben-5, Asa-4, Joseph-3, Nathaniel-2, Mathew-1). Reuben had no son Ezra. It seems strange that two BECKWITHs from different lines would be enumerated in the same town on the same page.

     Enumerated with Silvanus’ grandson, Edwin W. Beckwith (son of Walter G.), is Edwin’s aunt Sarah D. SULLIVAN born May 1820 NY. Could this be the female #2 listed below? Or is she a sister of Lydia GOOLD?

     Is Lydia actually the Liddie BECKWITH who died 13 Sept 1875 Silver Creek, Cass Co. MI age 89y 11m 2d. This woman was widowed, born CT, dau of Reuben and Rebecca PEGG.

                               son of Caleb and Joanna, born 4 Nov 1788 New London CT, died 2 Mar 1860. Married to Hester [Sally?] BEEBE. If Sally, she was born c1798 CT.

     If John lived to 1860, he should show up on the 1850 CT census. The only fit is John BECKWITH of Waterford. However, his age is listed as 49. This may have been a misreading on my part. This John is also enumerated on the 1860 census which was taken 6 Sept 1860 (after his death date!). The age in 1860 is given as 66 (born c1794). Until proof to the contrary, I am including the following as his children.

     Waterford Vital Records Book 2 p112 has an entry for the death of John L. BECKWITH who died 26 June 1864 (day and month hard to read) age 71 farmer  born Waterford, of Waterford, of paralysis. On p126 is an entry for the death of Sally BECKWITH who died 3 May 1871 age 76 housewife born and of Waterford of congestion of the lungs. Are these John and Sally of this family?
