I come from a difficult to trace family. I have a Lyman Beebe born abt 1825 to parents both from Vermont. He may or may not be born in Vermont as well. the census goes back and forth on his state of birth listing both NY & VT. I dont have parents names. He spent most of his time in Stark/Starkville NY and later Springfield Center, Otsego County, NY. I first found him in NY in 1850 in Canajoharie, Montgomery, New York. He was a poultry farmer most of his adult life. The hard part is all through his life time the darn counties & townships were changing time & time again. I have him as married to a Elizabeth (Betsey)(unknown surname)born 1832 in NY state. They had the following Beebe children. Lucinda 1854 Lemuel 1857- 1932 Elizabeth 1858 Oliver 1816-1944 Lyman J 1862- 1899 Janette 1864 Amelia L 1870 Victor 1871 Dorr 1875 any info would be wonderful!
