   1. ) The Captain inherits a brave and intrepid spirit from worthy ancestors. His grandfather, Timothy Beebe, a native of the town of Lyme, New London county, was a descendant of one of five brothers who dared the perils of the deep, and the still greater perils of an unknown land, when they sailed from their home in far-off Wales for uncivilized America. Timothy Beebe was born in 1760, and when a young man located in Vevay, Ind. In 1789 he married Rachel McIntosh, of that State, where she died, and he removed to Kentucky, where he married one of the Todd family, a relative of Mrs. Abraham Lincoln and of Col. Todd, of Libby Prison fame. Mr. Beebe's death occurred in 1841. He was the father of the following named children: Guy M. (the father of our subject), Sylvester, Dudley, Maria, Annie Maria, Clarissa Maria, Nelson, Edwin, Frederick, Elizabeth, and Cynthia.
