Author: MBrook1926 Surnames: Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.beckwith/599.2.1.1/mb.ashx Message Board Post: I am looking for help with a family will from 1816-1818 in Great Barrington, MA with Captain George Beckwith, administrator of the will (a probate judge is also part of the paperwork plus the justice of the peace.). Do any of you know this George Beckwith? He must have been a close friend of Isaac Van Deusen, the relative who died. It sounds as if "captain" relates to the Revolutionary War status.
