          Married to Cor. SPRINGSTEAD. He was born c1850? OH.

            a. Richard H. SPRINGSTEAD  born c1874 OH.

            b. Adelina R. SPRINGSTEAD  born c1879 OH.

 

     I show Perry Green BECKWITH as a possible son of David BECKWTH (1754-1834) who married c1793 to Abigail WHITING or WHITNEY (c1757). If these are his parents, then his line is  of CT. In the 1850 census his children are Charles (24 OH), Perry (21 OH), Ira (17 OH) and Lovina (14 OH). In 1860 he is living in the household of his son Ira (26 OH). Also in the household are Lovina (24 NY- sis of Ira) and Delia (60 NY- Perry’s wife?).  If Delia is Perry’s wife, then she obviously didn’t die in 1857!

     [Could this be J.R. BICKWITH age 40 CT (born c1810) in Division #910, Berrien Co. MI in 1850? His wife was Lucinda H. c1809 VT, with kids Edgar R. c1834 NY, Edward A. c1835 NY, Mary F. c1838 NY, Maud F. c1839 NY, John T. c1841 NY, Olive E. c1843 NY, and Almira L. c1846 NY.]

     The only “untraced” Jacob BECKWITH I find in 1840 is in LaSalle Co. IL p120 with the following family:  00001001-0000001. These ages do not fit with the 1850 MI census as listed above. But the ages fit better with the marriage date. This Jacob is not in IL in 1850.

     I have no proof (and very little evidence) that Samuel is the son of Holmes BECKWITH. Beckwith Notes lists two sons for Holmes: George Chipman and Samuel. George Chipman BECKWITH (c1817 NS) appears in Ellsworth ME in 1850. In the same town is a Samuel BECKWITH (c1806 NS). This seems to me too much of  a coincidence.

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

            son of Jonah and Hannah (DEMING) BECKWITH, born c1790 [1785], died [10 Aug] 1852 [Saybrook OH]. Married [pre-1819] to Abigail BABBITT, [daughter of William BABBITT and Lydia BISHOP].She was born c1800, died 21 Feb 1867. They are buried in Bates Cemetery, Ashtabula Co. OH.

     Buried in Bates Cemetery, Ashtabula Co. OH are the following:

Chancy BECKWITH  62y-19 Aug 1852

Artagas BECKWITH, wife, 67y-21 Feb 1867

Luther BECKWITH  15 Oct 1823-6 Dec 1890

Josephine L. BECKWITH  8m 10d-15 Aug 1845  d of L.&E.

Amos BECKWITH  21y-17 Feb 1862 Somerset KY  Co G 1 OH Art

  Are these this family? Is the wife’s name Abigail or Artagas? Was Luther a son?

     I am assuming that Seymour BECKWITH and William R. BECKWITH of Saybrook, Ashtabula Co. OH are sons of Chauncey because they are the only BECKWITHs in Saybrook in 1850. IF Roswell was son of  Chauncey, he apparently married and settled in in the Mentor, Lake Co. OH area before his father moved on to Saybrook.

     Ancestral File identifies two other children as Luther (15 Oct 1823 Saybrook, Ashtabula Co. OH) and Sarah (1822 Saybrook, Ashtabula Co. OH). This seems unlikely based on census records. Also listed is a possible child Charles born 1840.

     I have placed Harvey and Erastus in as children of Thomas and Hannah simply based on name similarities and location. Beckwith Notes lists two of thier children as Erastus and Harvey, and Harvey had a son Flavel. Thomas, the father, had a brother Flavel. Erastus and Harvey are living near each other in 1830. Lots of circumstantial evidence, but it would seem a logical placement.
