Email address: shaffer@kearney.net Here is the info I know about the BEEMAN families in & around Prescott, Ont; (about)1790-1870.: In the marriage Registers of Johnston Dist., Ontario, 1799-1863 is Ebenezer SHERWOOD to Rebecca BEEMAN, both of Augusta, Rev'd Heck. Wit. Hugh McIntosh and William Beeman. (date not stated, returned to the clerk 4 May 1836). {This would be the 2nd marriage for both Ebenezer and Rebecca unknown. Ebenezer SHERWOOD was married to1st) Ruth ? and then 2cd) Rebecca unknown BEEMAN. Rebecca was married to 1st) Zebra BEEMAN. So how is William BEEMAN the wit. related? Hugh MCINTOSH was also a witness on Eben SHERWOOD's will. We know that Hugh MCINTOSH was married to a Phoebe BEAMAN, dau of Uriah BEAMAN & Phoebe SHERWOOD. Who & how are these BEAMAN/BEEMAN's connected? (I wonder if Sebra/Zebra BEEMAN and Uriah were brothers?)
