4911 Her children are shown as Joseph's step-children, however, the females are listed as Gajewski's in the Cuyahoga County Marriage License Index. Did Joseph adopt them, or had Katherine been married to a another Gajewski? Her entry in the marriage index seems to suggest that she was. Also, death certificate for Anton Gajewski lists the same parents for him as for Joseph, so it looks like Joseph married his sister-in-law after his brother died.

ID: I1
Name: John Beecher
Sex: M
Birth: 28 MAR 1594 in KEN, ENG
Death: 1637/8 in New Haven, New Haven, CT
Note: From Dictionary of Ancestral Heads of New England Families by Holmes: "Hannah, widow of John
BEECHER of Kent, England, came to Boston in 1637 with her family, the only son being Isaac who became
identified with New Haven, CT."
Note:

James Shepard, The New Haven (Conn.) Potters, 1639. in "Genealogies of Connecticut Families from
The New England Historical and Genealogical Register" Volume III (Painter--Wyllys), selected and
introduced by Gary Boyd Roberts. Genealogical Publishing
Co., Inc., Baltimore, 1983, pp 150-155:
"1. Hannah [Potter] Beecher was the mother of the New Haven Potters, who appeared early in New
Haven as a widow with sons: i. John, ii. William and iii. Isaac Beecher, the ancestor of Rev Henry
Ward Beecher. Her first husband, Potter, died in
England, where she married a Mr. Beecher."

Note:

"It is generally supposed that her husband was John Beecher, one of the seven whom Eaton sent to New
Haven in advance of the colony and who died before the colony arrived. She has been considered to be
the mother of Isaac Beecher, for she calls him
her son in her will and gave him one third of her property; but recent investigations, it is claimed, show
conclusively that Isaac was only a step-son, the son of her second husband by a former wife."

Note:

"There was in New Haven, says G.F. Tuttle, as early as 1641, a widow Hannah Potter, known as
widow Potter the midwife. In 1643 she had two persons in the family, thirty pounds estate and twenty
and one quarter acres of land. She is called "sister
Potter the midwife," in seating the meeting house in 1646. She is supposed to have been a kin to the
other Potters, but there is no record to show it. She has often been confounded with the widow Hannah
Beecher, but the records clearly show that they
were two different persons."

Note:

Donald Lines Jacobus, "Miscellanea" The American Genealogist, vol XX (2), October 1943:
"[Kept in a locked cabinet in the Town Clerk's Office is a small old book which was used in the period
between 1660 and 1700 for miscellaneous purposes. It seems to have been little used by genealogists. A
digest of a few of the records is given
below. The Beecher entry is of interest because it bears on the question of whether Isaac Beecher was
actual son of the Widow Hannah Beecher, formerly Potter, as the present writer has always believed, or
only a step-son, a theory favored by other
students of the family....]"

Note: "[Part2,p11.] Isaac Beecher senior haveing for many yeares past stood in the quiett possession of divers
parcells of land without claime or prosecution doth now record them to himselfe, his heyres or assignes for ever."
Note:

"The homelott whereon he dwelleth, conaineing 3 acres more or less...
"Alsoe halfe a piece of meadow land ....
"Alsoe some parcells of upland...[and two other parcels]...
"Alsoe land at ye first that was his mother Beechers (viz) Three acres & halfe in the subbarbs quarter....
"Alsoe one parcell of meadow that at ye first belonged to bro: Jno Potter & passed over to him the sd
Beecher at a court in the 4th Decembr 1655: containeing three acres.
"Alsoe six acres of upland that was also his Bro: Jno Potters & alienated at the aforesd court....
"Alsoe the second division belonging to his sd bro: Jno Potter passed in ye court aforesd...fourteen
acres ....
"Alsoe a parcell of land graunted him against the end of a lott he bought of Eleazer Beecher neare
Chesnutt hill....about 9 acres....
"Alsoe two acres one quarter twenty foure rod of land in the necke which at first belonged to Wm Potter,
bounded westward by the mill river....which land of his on the South belonged at first to his mother
Beecher.
"Alsoe one parcell more in the necke which at first belonged to his bro: Jno Potter [4 Dec. 1655]
"Nathaniell Potter son of Wm Potter appeared the 9th day of June 1684: & acknowledged those lands
mentioned before that did belong to his sd father Wm Potter were passed over to his unkle the sd Isaac
Beecher....
"Entered 9 June 1684 before Wm Jones Assist, John Nash Recorder, John Alling Townesman.]"

Note: further below in the abstract is noted "[Part 2, p. 40.] William Pringle conveys to son Joseph Pringle 3 Jan
1688/9. Joseph Pringle, planter, conveys to 'my Lo: brother Eleazer Beecher of Newhaven' 6 Jan 1688/9."
Note:

Reference: "Saints, Sinners, and the Beechers" by Lyman Beecher Stowe, copyright 1934
(Bobbs-Merril) Pages 17-19:
"1637/8 John Beecher arrived in Boston, from Kent, England in a company of 50 men and 200 women
and children. The company was led by Rev. John Davenport and Theophilus Eaton. They came on the
ship Hector and her sister ship (name not cited). Rather
than settle among the arguing Pilgrim colony, they moved north to Quinnipiack, Long Island Sound
(where New Haven, CT is now). John Beecher died during the first winter, before his wife Hannah and
son Isaac arrived the following spring. She was
allowed to remain on John's land and accorded the title "Goodwife" as she happened to be a midwife,
an occupation sorely needed!

Note:

"John, Hannah and Issac were the first of the Beechers in America. They came to this country from Kent,
England, in 1637, with the company led by the Reverend John Davenport and Theophilus Eaton who had
been Ambassador to Denmark and Deputy-Governor
of India. This company crossed the ocean on the ship "Hector". The ship after a two months voyage,
dropped anchor in Boston harbor 26 June 1637, seventeen years after the "Mayflower" had landed the
Pilgrims at Plymouth Rock. The company consisted of
fifty men and two hundred women and children. But they found they had come in the midst of a quarrel,
about religion. Not wishing to buy into a quarrel, they decided to seek another area to settle in. They sent
out a reconnoitering party under the
leadership of Theophilus Eaton, which hit upon an old indian village of Quinnipiack on Long Island
Sound, the site of the present city of New Haven. Here they built a rude hut and left an unfortunate group
of seven men to hold the post for the winter,
and prepare for the arrival of the remainder of the company in the spring."

Note:

"John Beecher was one of the seven. He failed to survive the rigors of his first New England winter
because he and his companions had such inadequate protection. When Hannah Beecher and Issac arrived
in the spring, she found her husband already
buried in a unmarked grave. One hundred and twelve years later, in 1750, when David Beecher was a
boy of
twelve, workmen who were digging a celler for a house at the corner of George and Meadow streets in
New Haven came upon human bones which were believed to be those of John Beecher."

Note: "Since Hannah Beecher was the only midwife among them, she was given her husband's allotment of land
upon which she and her son settled."
Note:

"These colonists had their social distinctions marked by dress, address and manners. Clergymen,
college graduates, planters of good family and members of the General Court were gentlemen and were
entitled to use the prefix Mr. before their names.
Persons of reputable character who owned land, including laborers and tenant farmers of the better
class, were called yeoman. A yeoman was addressed as goodman and his wife as goodwife or goody.
John Beecher was not a gentleman, but a yeoman; his
wife was not a lady, but a goodwife."

Note: Reuben Beecher Hughes, in his book, quotes (p.3-4) the following letter he received from Rev. Luther Fitch
Beecher, D.D.
Note:

Brookline, Mass, Feb. 3, '98
R. B. Hughes:
"The Beecher" name can be traced beyond the "Isaac, 1623, of your list." Not to speak of the Beecher of
King David's time in Jewish Military History. My first record takes me back of the emigration to
America in 1637, to Speldhurst, County of Kent,
England, where we find them living in "Chancellor House". Having the right to display a
"Coat-of-Arms," and in after years connected, through several generations, with the Army or the
Government Service. Three "Tablets," commemorative of their name
and services, are now found in the North Tower of the Speldhurst Episcopal Church, certificate copies
of which are in the possession of Mrs. Gaston, copies of which are among my records. I have a copy of
the letter from the last owner of the estate,
written to Gov. Gaston some four or five years since, and or all of which are at your service if they are
of any interest to you.
I have, also, a history of much interest of the Beechers, located for many years at "Castle Martyrs," in
the south-west part of Ireland, occupying three large estates, of which "Castle Martyrs" is the largest.
Miss O'Neil, contemporary with Edmund Keene and Mrs. Siddons, was on the London stage then, under
the management of the Kendalls. In 1819 she was married to Sir William Beecher, an Irish member of
the British Parliament.
Sir Henry Wrixon Beecher, baronet, now occupies the estate, having two hundred tenants, and much
more of like history and biography, much of which must be new and of interest to you.
No published "Beecher Genealogy" exists, so far as I know......
Very sincerely,
LUTHER F. BEECHER

Note:

In his book, Reuben Beecher Hughes, adds,
The Mrs. Gaston referred to in the above letter was the wife of Gov. William Gaston, of Mass., the
daughter of Laban Beecher, (now Boston), who was the son of Benjamin Beecher of New Haven,
(familiarly called "Capt. Ben."), who lived so many years on
Chapel street. He was "town agent, and had care of the poor."
The motto inscribed on the "Coat-of-Arms" which the Beechers were "given the right to display" was
"Bis vivi qui bene" - "He twice lives who lives well."v 		John BEECHER
