Notes |
- Thomas was made a freeman of the Colony in 1666. His homestead descended to his son Thomas, by whom it was conveyed in the latter years of his life, to his nephew, William Holt.
In the spring and July of 1651 he was granted land in New London, Conn. In 1662 Jun 28 a warrant was issued for his appearance in court on the first Thursday in July to answer the complaint of John Lewis regarding a debt of ten shillings. A bark of twelve to twenty tons, named the "Speedwell" was built for him by Mouls and Coit circa 1662. In 1669 he was made a freeman, and in 1673 was appointed a jury-man for the year, and again in 1677. In 1675 Jun 4 he was confirmed as Sergeant of the Trainband at New London with his brother Samuel Beebe, and again in 1678. In 1675 when the Indians were attacking and burning several villages in and around New London, he was one of seven men appointed to set up fortifications against them. He also served in the King Phillips War with the rank of Sergeant. In February of 1677/8 he was a part of a building committee set up to build a new meeting house at the site of the old one. In 1683 Nov 19 he was part of a committee to seek a replacement minister who had passed away. In 1690 he was assigned the job of finishing the interior of the new meeting house. The same year he succeeded his brother John Beebe as Sergeant of the Trainband. He was prominent in church affairs.
