Adin Beebe (b 1761) settled near Niagara on the Lake; since he was an officer in Butler’s Rangers, he would have received a sizable land grant. He married Dorothy Crysler (whose father Philip Crysler served with me in the Rangers) in 1790, and their children were born: Amasa 1791, Lucretia 1793, Solomon 1798, Asa 1801, Joshua 1796, and Drusilla 1795.

Upper Canada Land Petition: Upper Canada Land Petition of Edin Beebe dated at Newark (Niagara-on-the-Lake) on 20 Jul 1795. “That Your Petitioner served His Majesty in Col. Butlers Corps of Rangers during the American War as a non commissioned Officer…” Certificate of Ralfe Clench dated at Newark (Niagara-on-the-Lake) on 23 Aug 1797 attached to the Upper Canada Land Petition of Eden Beebe. “The Bearer Eden Beebe was a Sergt in Butlers late Rangers…”

"Joshua Beebe (b 1795), who married Dorothy Hare (the daughter of another Ranger, b 1798 d 1884). One of their sons was Horatio Nelson Beebe (1824 – 1892), a dentist in St Catharines. He married Susan Gould around 1849 and she died in 1852 about a year after their daughter Susan Adeline Beebe was born.

Aunt Marjorie seemed to think that Loretta Beebe took care of Susan, but Loretta was Susan’s half sister from her father’s second marriage and born in 1868 (when Susan would have been 17) so that caregiving isn’t possible unless there was another Loretta, who was Horatio’s sister. And according to the family tree, Susan Adeline had two siblings — Adin and Emma." ^[1]
