Quote from WFT V 07 # 0285: It was in such an environment of social and political upheaval th
at in April, 1650, the time of the "Great Immigration," witnessed the departure from England for America of John Beebe and his family of children. Whatever other inducement controlled him in this bold move, it surely was a propitious time to escape from the tumult and confusion of Civil War and seek the peace and comfort which the American Colonies offered. The journey from Mid-England to the distant sea coast by crude conveyance, and the still more uncomfortable and dangerous voyage of many days on a small craft in treacherous seas, were probable sources of fear, tempered by bright hopes of future days and novelty of the adventure.
= Virkus,: First Families, Vol. IV, 1930, page 142: "John Beebe, III (d. 1650), d. at sea o n his journey from England to America. m. Rebecca Ladd, from England, 1650, settled at New London CT."
= from American Ancestry, Vol. 8, page 25: John (Beebe) of Broughton, England, died while enr oute for America, May 18, 1650; husbandman; name spelled Beby as far [back] as 1403; m. Rebecca; son of John (q.v.)
= Alan D. Henry: "He was called second son in his father's will in 1622. In an Indenture (162 /361) on 17 Nov, Charles 5th year (1631) John Bebye of Broughton (and his wife Rebecca) sold land in Great Addington to his elder brother James of Islip, both referred to as sons of John Bebye, deceased. John died 18 May 1650 while on his way to America. He left five sons and two daughters. He left England in April or May 1650 and was accompanied by his five children [Rebecca b 1630, Thomas b 1633, Nathaniel b 1635, Mary b 1637, and James b 1641]. Two sons, John and Samuel, preceded him to America and his daughter Hannah [b 1640] and wife Rebecca probably died before he started. His will (below) was written and signed on shipboard on the day he died, at which time his eldest son was twenty-two and his youngest child eight [or nine - LPM]. He appointed William Lewis and John Cole executors of his will. The immigrants reached their destination in the latter days of May 1650 and it is probable that the ship reached a port in the neighborhood of Cape Ann, MA, for it is recorded the Rev. Mr. Blinman administered to the spiritual interests of this Colony and that he, with a party including the Beebes, had moved to New London, CT by March 1651, where they were prominent in the early settlement of that place."
During voyage to America.
