Biography

Enoch Beckwith was born in 1779. He was the son of Worden Beckwith and Martha Steadman.[1] He was in Westmorland County, New Brunswick in 1808, when he petitioned the government for land.[2]

In 1851, Enoch and his wife Caroline were living in Salisbury, New Brunswick with Enoch Jr and his wife and children.[3] The census states that he was French, but this seems doubtful.

Enoch was born about 1779. He passed away about 1851. [4]
