<< According to page 85 of Trowbridge's Champion genealogy, Joshua (Joshua,

Elisheba Beckwith, born 4 Feb 1723 in Lyme, CT and died 6 August 1809 in
North Chatham, NY. There are some Beckwith sites on the web who show the
marriage, but have a second marriage for her to a "D. Peck" Does anyone
else
know anything more about her, especially her ancestry?? Karen Hahn >>
Karen,
The book "The Beckwiths" by Paul Beckwith, pub. 1891, tells about
Elizabeth Beckwith's ancestry. (This book has her name as Elizabeth rather
than Elisheba, but it's the same person.) The Family History Library in Salt
Lake City has this book on film so you can order it from your local Family
History Center. By the way, the Family History Library's catalogue is now
available to search online at:
www.familysearch.org
You can also search the International Genealogical Index and the Ancestral
File at this same site.
