Don't know how but it seems that all of a sudden I am getting all kinds of email messages about the Beebe name and I have not signed up for anything and have not been into the rootsweb files for several weeks... I know I can unsubscribe but any idea as to how I ended up being on the list??? Another subjest... You mention your 3rd Great Grandfather Moses Beebe being a son of Nathan... What time period was this??? My GGGrandfather was Nathan Beebe... Believed to have been born in Otsego County New York in 1809 and came to Trumbull county Ohio where he married and lived the rest of his life... His oldest son, William, then came to Iowa about 1848 where I grew up... Any connection that you can envision??? DuWayne Beebe
