John BECKWITH

Abt 1639 -

• Name	John BECKWITH  [1]
  	John Beckwith, second son of Matthew (1st), was born about 1639, and appears to have been living as late as 1723, in which year he was of New London, and in that year gave to Joseph a deed of his share and proportion of his father Matthew Beckwith's right in the third part of the fourth division - (Lyme). There may be uncertainty as to which of two or three Josephs was grantee, but probably none as to which of at least as many Johns then living was the grantor. That he had a son John is undoubted, and that he had a daughter Elizabeth, who was wife of James Birchard, of Norwich, is fairly probable. That he had other children is at least possible, and if this can be shown, it may explain some of the mystery of the fourth generation.he was neither the patentee of New London in 1704, nor a centenarian at Niantic in 1740.
