Notes

Many claim he (John Beach, Jr.) died in 1712, but the BEACH FAMILY MAGAZINE, Vol. II, No. 2, p. 156, says that his will, dated 1705, was probated in 1711, such that he died well before 1712. The will names his second wife Phebe, brother Nathaniel, and children Ebenezer, Mary, Mehitable and Hester. The fact no mention is made of a daughter Ruth suggests he had no such child, contrary to claims found in older genealogies.
