 Abt 1635 - 1724 (~ 89 years)
-
| Name |
Nathaniel Beebe |
| Birth |
Abt 1635 [1, 4] |
- "First Settlers of New England, Vol. 1., page 153" has his birth date about 1631. In keeping with assumption that the children were baptized not long after being born, I think Clifford Beebe's dates are a better fit.

| Notes |
- In 1657 he owned an estate of 250 pounds, and in 1669 he was made a freeman in New London. Later he signed an agreement for the settlement of Norwalk, CT and by 1670 he was a resident of Stonington, New London, CT. He was a soldier for many years, and in 1676 he participated in various campaigns in the King Phillip's War. At one time he was in command of seven men sent to Montauk Point to tend a warning against a possible French attack. On another occasion the General Assembly directed that he and certain others be allowed to take to themselves some guns that they had in their possession, as part of wages owing to them. For his services in the war he was awarded a land grant.
Nathaniel settled in Stonington, CT. His land was absorbed in the large estates of his neighbors the Denisons. In the will of William Denison (1715) he disposes of the Beeby land, but adds "I order my executors to take a special care of Mr Nathaniel Beeby during his life and give him a Christian burial at his death." His gravestone is near the Denisons and states that he died December 17th 1724, aged 93. There is no record that he ever married or had children.
