Hi Jack, Your dates come in too late for the Vitals look-up. The book only covers 1777-1834 and it does not cover Births, only marriage and deaths. Sure wish it did cover births. Would help a lot. Now, unfortunately, I could not find anyone with that surname, BEEDE/BEEDY, in either the Vital Records book or the History of Clinton and Franklin Counties.
