(II) Samuel, son of John Beebe, was baptized at Broughton, England, June 23,
1633. He came to New England and settled at New London, Connecticut, where
land was granted him December 2, 1651, and afterwards. He married (first)
Agnes, daughter of William Keeney. He married (second) Mary (Keeney) (???),
born 1642, sister of his first wife, She lived in Colchester, and was a
widow. On May 8, 1716, she conveyed to Samuel Fox, of New London, land
granted originally to William Keeney, her father. Samuel Beebe probably
moved to Plum Island and died there early in 1712, as administration was
granted on his estate, April 6, 1712, to his widow Mary and son Samuel, of
Southold, Long Island. Children: Samuel, born about 1660; Susannah, about
1663; William, about 1665; Agnes, about 1667; Nathaniel, about 1669; Ann,
about 1672; Jonathan, mentioned below; Mary, about 1678; Thomas, about 1682.

BEEBE is in both my maternal and paternal lines -- Drake and
Davis -- they
connect at Samuel Beebe and Mary Keeney, so my paternal Drake and maternal
Davis lines are the same untill I get to their sons William and Jonathan.
I haven't verified it all so it's subject to changes, additions, or
deletions:
My Drake and Davis line the same:
...10th G-Grandparents Thomas BEEBE/BEEBY born about 1535 in Addington,
Northamptonshire, England & Elizabeth born about 1535 in England

England & Alice born 1574 in Broughton, Northamptonshire, England
...8th G-Grandparents John BEEBE born about about 1600 Addington,

DRAKE, brings me to my maiden name "DRAKE" and to my "DAVIS" connection.
My maternal BEEBE line on the DAVIS side is the same from my 7th
G-Grandparents Samuel BEEBE and Mary KEENEY on up. Their sons, Jonathan and
William are the brothers that married into each side of my family. Jonathan
BEEBE (my Drake side) is my 6th G-Grandfather and his brother William is my
6th Great Grand Uncle who married my 1C7xR, Ruth Rogers (my Davis side).
Anyone researching this BEEBE line?
