Biography

Isaac Beach born 16-Apr-1746^[1], married (1) Mary _____, married (2) Elizabeth Berry, married (3) 31-May-1782, in Cornwallis, Kings County, Nova Scotia, Eunice Bliss, born 15-Jun-1758. Isaac died after 1789, Kings County, Nova Scotia.The BEACH FAMILY MAGAZINE, Vol. II, No. 1, p. 114, suggests he died 28-Dec-1775, but this is in error. His wife Mary probated his estate at Wallingford, Connecticut, in 1781, claiming he had been absent for 10 years. Research by Mahlon W. Beach, BEACH IN CANADA, pp. 117-121, shows that Isaac (5) abandoned his family in Connecticut and moved to Cornwallis, Kings County, Nova Scotia, where he married twice more and died sometime after 1789.
