Origin of the surname “Beebe:”

 

"The name Beebe is of great antiquity, being found in various forms of spellings, as far back as Bebi, an Egyptian king of the Second Dynasty, 3000 years B.C.  Richard and William de Beebe were of the Royal Guard of William the Conqueror and passed over to England with him and wer granted manors in Warwickshire where the family lived up to the close of the Commonwealth.  At East Farndon, England, John Beebe was pastor of the church of St. John the Baptist, prior to 1411.  John Beebe (1), from Northamptonshire, migrated to America about 1650.  The line runs, Samuel, Thomas, Edward, Thomas T., Thomas William.  Thomas T. served as ensign in the Revolution.  In the thick of the fight at Bunker Hill, he secured a fine musket which dropped from the grasp of a mortally wounded English soldier.  The gun is now in the possession of a descendant in Albany, and also a bugle used in the battle and a saber used by Ensign Thomas T.

After the Rev. he went to Albany Co. and engaged in farming.  He married Olive, daughter of David B. Hall, A. M.  Thomas William Settled in Guilderland [NY, between Albany and Schenectady] and devoted himself to agriculture.  He and his wife are both buried at Voorheesville, Albany Co."
