Nov 19, 1851: "Mr. William Allen Beebe married to Miss Ann Adams by the Reverend George Lovesee, near Wards Mill."
From The "Oquawka Spectator"
My 2-g-grandfather, William Allen BEEBE, and another son of Levi's, David, joined the Army together out of Biggsville, the 84th IL Volunteer Infantry. David was killed in the campaign against Atlanta. William shot his thumb off during guard duty in Louisville KY and spent the remainder of the war serving as an ambulance driver. His pension file for disability is fascinating reading...several of the Adams and Henderson County neighbors he had wrote affidavits for him attesting to his inability to work after the war. He returned to Henderson County after the war and lived there until he moved to Schuyler County in 1886 or 1887, then on to Kansas and finally Oklahoma.
