Biography
John was the son of Robert Beville and Mary Saunders. He was born on 6 January 1611/12,[1] probably in Huntingdonshire where his father lived, and was said to be 6 in 1618. His older brother Matthew died in his father's lifetime, leaving John his father's main heir.[2][3]
John married Mary Clement, daughter of John Clement (Rector of Chesterton and Woodston, Huntingdonshire) on 15 April 1638 at Chesterton.[2][3][4] They had two children:
In 1663 John was fined for keeping horses on common land without permission.[2][3]
John had property at Chesterton and Stanground, Huntingdonshire.[2][3] He is recorded in the Hearth Tax list for Stanground, Huntingdonshire in 1666, so he was alive then.[2][3]

Not sure if the sources are up to Wikitree standards, but here are the links.

I looked at all the online trees you attached above. None of them are properly sourced. The immigration index you mentioned calls her Joan Ray and gives no indication of who her parents were. WikiTree has strict sourcing requirements, particularly for pre-1700 profiles, and we don't consider unsourced online trees to be valid sources. However, if legitimate sources were attached to those online trees, we would definitely give them consideration. So, from what I'm seeing, Joan's parents are unknown. There is a WikiTree profile for her here: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/UNKNOWN-59799
