(Note for Susanna Beeson if there is some info regarding her I can't find it. The only one that comes close has her being married to Richard the same time is Susanna Brown herself. The children they say are Susanna Beeson are Susanna Brown's children. There doesn't seem to be any marriage info for Susanna Beeson other than others trees. Maybe Susanna Brown was married before to X Beeson. If so where is the info? There is solid info for Susanna Brown for Susanna Beeson there is not. vlb)
