Amazingly, I think there was even one more branch of the Beebe tree that passed
through IL. In my family tree there was a David Beebe, b,Abt 1776 and his wife
Rebecca Dupee migrated from NY to Quincy, in Adams County. David died there.
His son, David Franklin Beebe migrated from IL to AR and on to CA. I am not
sure, but suspect that some of the family remained in Adams County.
1850 Federal Census: Algonquin, McHenry Co., Illinois: John Beebe, age 45,
farmer b. NY; Abby age 46 b. Conn.; Abel age 21, no occupation b. NY; Margaret
age 14 b. NY; Clarissa age 10 b. NY; George age 6 b. Ill. I believe that the
above John Beebe is a sister of Clarissa (Beebe) White who also lived in the
same place and time, and also a sister of Hezekiah Beebe (1790-1850) who is my
gr-gr-gr-grandfather. Would like to exchnage ideas and data. Don Beebe,

Dear Don...I saw your recent message on the Beebe boards.I'm seeking info on Milo Beebe, who married Nancy Mortland of Hardin, Ill. and St. Louis, Mo. in mid 1800's.I believe Milo was born in NY and moved west, though Ohio. (I did find a Milo Beebe in Ohio, but he was younger than mine, and could have been a nephew, or perhaps a grandson)Is there any chance that you'd know about this mysterious Beebe of mine?Thanks...

I'll reiterate as we have more information coming in:
Would like to add additional info about Daniel Beebe. He left NY but it is known
where he lived there or where he was born. He married Cynthia Woodworth, unknown
where or exactly when. Arrived in Cook County where he eventually died in 1845.
Cynthia Beebe moved to Kane County, IL and went on to marry Alexander Comstock
(reference her use of the name as Bebee for the transcribed IL web marriage
record). Daniel and Cynthia had several children: Corintha Adelia (mar. Robert
Varty and three children), Daniel (who married Martha Minerva Haskins Beebe),
Henry Beebe (who may have married Louisa Peck on 13 Jun 1857 in DeKalb, IL),
Mrs. Eveline Beebe Hunt (mar. 22 Oct 1849 Dekalb, IL from the name of Bebee a
William R. Hunt), and son Selva (b. 1842+-, mar. Laura Beardsley and moved to
Ellsworth County Kansas) with his last name spelling changed to Bebee in the
1910 Federal Census. I am a direct descendant of the Daniels mentioned above.
Seeking all information that might lead to the !
origin of Daniel the elder, also information on his wife Cynthia Woodworth (Beebe)(Comstock).
The John Bebee line, sadly, is floundering to find a link to the clan. We have a
good record of his wife's line (Sarah Clark/e) but nothing more on John other
than he was born in CT (where? to whom?) 28 Feb 1788, married Sarah Clark in
Jefferson County, NY, 1 Jun 1817 "by William Case." He moved his brood from NY
to Illinois with his son-in-law Horace Haskins (mar. to "Polly" Maria/h Bebee)
and his family on a sail boat they built together. The family seat is in
Sycamore and all contemporaries of these two branches are tied to DeKalb, IL and
Kane, IL.
I have found three new Beebe/Bebee cousins and we are all researching, adding
and compiling a more complete record which comes together and grows each day.
The record is much to much to delineate here so email me if you are interested
in receiving a copy when it is brought up to date.
We would appreciate any information on Daniel Beebe the elder and John Bebee's
origins. They are both elusive. Also, please note that at various times and in
various records John Bebee appears as John Beebe. Daniel's offspring sometimes
records as Bebee instead of Beebe.
Please email me at mrspsp@dc.rr.com if you
have any information on these lines. We like to share.
Hi
I just looked up Abel Beebe and in 1850 he was living with his wife and
parents in McHenry Ill. The parents were listed as John and Abby Beebe. Did
Margaret and Abel have a lot of children? He is the only Abel listed and his
date of birth is given as 1829 or1830.
Hope this helps a little.

Trying to find the parents of Abel Beebe who is my 2nd great grandfather.
He married Margaret Hannas who was born June 16, 1831 in Schenedaday, NY.
any help will be appreciated.
I don't know if related but Polly Maria Beebe and her father
(John Beebe mar.Sallie Clark of John Clark) b.17 Jun 1820 in Loraine, Jefferson
County, NY married Horace Haskins (b.17 Nov 1820 Jefferson County, NY, son of
John Haskins and Mary Tolman Haskins who d. 28 Aug 1783). Horace and John Beebe
built a ship in Henderson Harbor and left with their families to Chicago in 1844
and settled in DeKalb where Horace became a wealthy farmer and businessman
(reference John Deere fame). Horace and Polly had Mary Elizabeth and Martha
Minerva Haskins. Martha Minerva mar. Daniel A. Beebe having several children
including Willard Beebe (whom we call Senior on this end) who in turn married
Mabel Rich twice and had Willard Beebe (Junior)and John Beebe. Junior
mar.Florence Wade and had Nancy Beebe (mar.Geshner) and Willard Beebe (III).
Might your Beebes be part of the John Beebe from NY above? I am seeking Mabel
Rich (my GrGrandmother) who was treated badly and tossed out by Willard Beebe !
Sr. shortly before he tossed out Willard Beebe Jr. because he "looked too much
like her." Mabel may have died in Oregon (mother is Carrie Rich). If connected,
email mrspsp@dc.rr.com. Hope it helps,
even if to eliminate extra names in your lineage research.
My files show Jane as Rebecca Jean Beebe. She had a sister
Elizibeth Beebe who married a gg... grandfather of mine named Arathiel Snell.
Jane and Elizabeth's parents were Joseph Beebe and Rebecca Peterson. I'm showing
that Jane and Henry had at least one child named Matilda Lena Haskell born
2/1860. Elizabeth married Benjamin Woods in about 1867 a few years after
Arathiel died and they also show up in the 1870 census in Richland County IL -
right next door to Henry Haskell and Rebecca J. I'm certain we're talking about
the same people. Most of my info comes from a fellow researcher whom I'll direct
to this board.

Hi LuAna, and Audrey too,
Your 6th great grandfather William is my connection to the Beebe line and
my name is Joan Beebe Meddaugh.
So here goes my connection to William
I will start with his parents Samuel and Mary Keeney, since you
already have the earlier relatives all sewn up.
As you stated Samuel and Mary had a number of children in fact, If I have
it figured right, our William's brother Thomas married a Ann Hobson, they
had a daughter named Agnes that married Azariah Pratt. Agnes and
Azariah had Seth Pratt who married Abigail Tully.
Seth and Abigail had Ezra Pratt. He married a Martha? Ezra and Martha
had Fanny who married a John Kneeshaw. They had a daughter named Esther.
Esther married John B. Smith and had Ralph Smith. Ralph married Esther
Roe daughter of Horace and Zilpha A. Jackson. Zilpha's parents were D P
Jackson and Rachel A. Bower. They had another child they named Ethel L.
Jackson. She married my husband's grandfather Frank Meddaugh. They had
4 children. Preston, Elmer, Catherine and Rachel. It is Elmer that
married Evelyn Green that is the father of my husband Larry.
And now for my Beebe line from William. William married and had a child
Ezekiel, he married and had Zadock I, Zadock I and his wife had Zadock
II. Zadock II and his wife had a child named Cyrus who married a Rhody
Chesebro. After she died he married her sister Phoebe C. Palmer. They
had no children only Cyrus and Rhody had children.
There were two boys and at least one girl. The boy's names were Cyrus and
Judson. It is Judson that my line extends from. He married Susan
Blanding and they had 3 children as well. Hiram was one of them and is
my great grandfather. He married Ellen Amelia Hills daughter of James
Hills and Chloe Clark Hills of Brookfield, NY.
Hiram and Ellen had 3 children William L, Lela W.Beebe Smith and James H.
Beebe who was named after his grandfather James Hills.
William is my grandfather. He married May A. Payne daughter of Olive
Damon and Truman Payne of W. Eaton, NY. Later after May died in Feb. of
1922 in Candor, NY Tioga Co. he married Anna Personeous daughter of David
and Sarah Snow Personeous also of Candor.
William and May had two children. Susan born Aug. 20, 1894 and my father
C. Arthur Beebe born May 6th, 1889.
Sue married Lionel Stevens and had a son Karl born about 1916.
Karl married Dorothy Knapp and had two children Kay in 1946 and Chuck in
1950.
Both are married only Kay has any children and she has three
grandchildren.
My father married Dorcas S. Beebe of Ulysses, Potter Co. Pay in June of
1920. I am their only daughter Joan born in Dec. 15th, 1945
I married Larry Meddaugh May 1, 1965 in Candor, NY He isgrandson to
Frank and Ethel Jackson Meddaugh whose son Elmer married Evelyn Green.
We have two children Ami born in March of 1968 in Mesa, Ariz and James P.
Meddaugh born June 12, 1971 in Portland,Or.
Ami is single and lives in Portland. Jim is married to Kirstie and has
three children on of which was from a previous marriage and lives with
his mother and stepfather who have legally adopted him.
Hope you enjoy this bit of history and if you would like more info out
this line/lines let me know.

Great GReat + great granddaughter to Willima and hi
Hello,
My great-grandfather, Warren Beebe, (1837) was from the Geneva, (Kane County)
area of Illinois. He and my great-grandmother (Amelia Sheldon-married May 1865)
left Illinois (1870) for Iowa in a covered wagon when my grandmother (Carrie
Beebe--third born) was one year old. In 1880 he was in Webster T wp, Webster,
Iowa and had three more children born there. His children's names were:
Aurelia, Lyle, Carrie, Herbert, Amelia, and Hattie.
William Beebe, Warren's father, had six children and it is thought that
William is the brother of John Beebe who also moved to Illinois. Hope this
helps. If you know of any connection, please let me know. Alice Ertel
