Elizabeth Beckwith
Noted events in her life were: • Family: From The Ancestry of Emily Jane Engle, Dean Crawford Smith, 1992, page 228. ELIZABETH, born circa 1647 (age 10 on 15 February 1657[/8] [Winthrop Medical Journal 1:379] and age 17 in deposition of 1665, [Crimes & Misdemeanors, III:200]); died after 1 September 1719 (division of last husband's estate, Hartford Probate #372); married first circa 1665 ROBERT GERRARD, born say 1640s, living in Rhode Island 8 October 1674 when his wife was granted a divorce (Lacy, p.45); married second between 8 October 1674, the date of her divorce decree (ibid.), and probably September 1678 when her first child with second husband was conceived, JOHN BATES, born say 1640s, died Haddam, CT 15 January 1718/9 (Hartford Probate #372). • Family: From Beckwith Note 6, by Albert C. & Edward S. Beckwith, 1907, Page 2. ELIZABETH, was married to JOHN BATE, who died Jan'y 15, 1718-9, she being then living. Their daughter, Elizabeth, was married before Oct. 1688 to John Bailey. ELIZABETH, by misreading record, has appeared as "sister Cate " (probably written "sister bale.") The true reading makes it needless to guess that her brother JOHN had a daughter Elizabeth, or to doubt that her brother MATTHEW' S daughter was Mrs. James Birchard. This correction is owed to N. Eng. Hist. Gen. Register, Jan'y 1907, in " John Bailey of Haddam, Conn." Elizabeth married Robert Girard. Elizabeth next married John Bates in 1678 in Connecticut. (John Bates was born about 1665 in Connecticut.) |
