264. Joseph Beebe422,423,716,717,718 was born about 1681 in New London, New London County, Connecticut.188,423,717 "Beebe Family" says he was born about 1684. He died on 4 Dec 1756 in New London, New London County, Connecticut.423,717 Said to have died about age 70. However, he was probably younger and may have been born earlier than 1681. Clarence Beebe thought that he was the son of John (3) but it is now thought by many that he was the son of John (2) and brother of John (3) which appears more likely. A confusion exists as to the name of Joseph's first wife. The New London record says that "Joseph Beebe and Elizabeth Graves were married 26 Dec 1706" while the wife's name is given as Mehitable in record of the childrens birth and baptisms. However, a history of the Graves Family, in preparation in 1895, confirms Elizabeth's marriage to Joseph. Elizabeth died in April 1730 and he married (2) the widow Elizabeth (Camp) Fargo. All four of his children by Elizabeth Camp were baptized in New London, CT on 26 Oct 1740. Mehitable: Is should be noted that Mehetable would have been about age 57 at the time her youngest children were baptized. She was the daughter of Benjamin and Mary (Hoar) Graves. Elizabeth: Widow of Moses Fargo and the daughter of William and Abigail (Willoube) Camp. Moses is probably the Moses Fargo that died, according to information in Automated Archives CD 100, about 1726 in New London, CT. His father's name is given as Jason Fargeau. Joseph Beebe and Mehitable Graves were married on 26 Mar 1706 in New London, New London County, Connecticut.422,423,716,717,719 also listed as 26 Dec. 1706.
