Second Generation

2. Thomas BEEBE (*) was born about 1535 in Great Addington, Northamptonshire, England.^1,2 "Thomas lived in Great Addington, Northamptonshire, England and is mentioned in records in 1551, 1559 and 1561. On 19 May 1551 he is cited in a list of 11 names in a Manor Court Roll as a Manorial tenant and serving on a Manorial Jury. On 10 May 1559 he witnessed the will of Alexander Bolney of Great Addington. And on 21 Jul 1561 he witnessed the will of Agnes Bate of Great Addington.

While no proof has been found that he is the father of Alexander, John and Mary, he certainly appears to be the most likely candidate. Most of the information that follows for the first four generations of the family in England is based on research of documents on file in Northampton, Leicester, Warwick and London, England."
