Mary Beamer (Cir 1770 - Bef 1851) - a 3 x Great-grandmother
Mary Beamer (Cir 1770 - Bef 1851)
Mary Beamer, one of my 3 x great grandmothers was born cir 1770 in New Jersey. Died before 1851 in Canada West.
Mary Beamer married Noah Force about 1787, Sussex County, New Jersey.

6. Mary Beamer (b cir 1770) - Sussex County, New Jersey (m Noah Force)
7. Henry Beamer (b cir 1730) - Netherlands (m Lena Blenkenberg)
The Beamer family probably traveled overland by wagon in New Jersey, to the Hudson River, and then New York, where they took shipping on a boat up the Hudson River to Albany. They probably went overland from Albany by wagon to Schenectady, where they would have taken shipping on a boat along the Mohawk River. They would have proceeded by boat to the Carrying Place near Fort Stanwix, crossed along Wood Creek to Oneida Lake and then across the lake to Oswego on Lake Ontario. Here they would have hired another boat to take them to the Niagara River or further west to where the Beamers were settled near 20 mile Creek, west of present day St. Catharines. This trip would have taken them about 6 weeks.

Additional research is still ongoing into the land records of Lots 11, 12 and 13 concessions 3 and 4 of Burford Township, Brant County, Ontario, around Forces Corners or Woodbury. The land records (copy books) for Burford Township are located in Brantford, Ontario.
I do know the following:
Henry Beamer had a Crown Patent on Burford, conc 3 lot 12 dated May 13, 1805;
Levi Lawrence had a Crown Patent on Burford, conc 4 lot 12 dated April 24, 1805.
Both of these lots are on the east side of the Burford Township middle town line right at Forces Corners.
Beamer Lore:
From the booklet "Beamer Lore" compiled in 1928 by Miss Nancy Beamer, historian for the Beamer family of Louth Township, Lincoln County, Ontario, Canada. The booklet was compiled to present to family members attending the Beamer family reunion which at that time was held annually in Niagara, Southern Ontario.
As the title indicates, this is "Lore". Much of it cannot be authenticated.
Pioneer settler in Louth Twp.,Lincoln County,Henry Beamer was born in Holland, about the year 1730. His father, Benjamin, a millwright by trade, and an officer in the army, resided on the river Rhine. He had a large family. In those days each son was obliged to serve seven years in the army.Tto escape this rigorous system many young men left their native land and came to America to seek their fortune.
Henry Beamer was one of them. It is said that he applied to his father for money to pay his passage, but his request was refused. Apart from any other consideration, it would have been a serious offense for any army officer to assist his own son to escape. Left to his own resources, Henry with seventeen other lads, made an agreement with the Captain of a vessel about to sail. They were about six months reaching New York, then called New Amsterdam, and on their arrival the Captain sold the boys for three years to pay for their passage. About 1752, Henry married and settled in Sussex, the most north-westerly county in New Jersey. It is not positively known what his wife's name was, but in the baptismal records of the old Dutch Reformed Church of Mahackamack, under date May 29, 1766, this entry appears: Sarah, daughter of Hendrick Beemer and Lena Blenkenberg, baptized. In all Canadian records Henry's name is spelled with "ea" not "ee" as in this entry; but the fact that Henry had a daughter Lena, that her second marriage is recorded in this same church, that the names "Sarah" and "Lena" appear frequently in succeeding generations, that the date fits into Henry's history, and that the spelling of his first name bespeaks recent arrival from the old land, and that no record this "Hendrick" having remained in USA has been found, all seem to point to him as being the "Henry" who came to Louth.
Henry Beamer had lived in America over thirty years, and was the father of sixteen children, eight sons and eight daughters, when he "pulled up stakes" and again "took the toilsome road of exile", as did so many other Loyalists after the American Revolution. For six weeks they plodded on Pennsylvania wagons. The year of his arrival in Canada is uncertain**, but his son Adam, born in 1774, was but a small boy when the journey was made, and the weary miles he trudged through the woods left a lasting impression on the little fellow. Evidently some of the older children, who were married, came later at intervals. History informs us that between the years 1783 and 1792 the influx of Loyalists by way of Niagara was so great that the surveyors could not lay out land fast enough to accommodate the exiles seeking new homes.
{Donna Cole, year 2000}
No grants of land were made in Louth Twp. previous to 1795. Those who came before the land was surveyed settled where they chose.
Henry's first location was somewhere in the "Smoky Hollow" section of Louth, which proved an undesirable locality. In 1804 he obtained a grant of one hundred acres on the top of the "mountain", and in 1808 another hundred acre grant lying between the properties already granted to, or bought by his sons (Christopher and Adam).

Noah Force (Cir 1768 - Bef 1851) - a 3 x Great-grandfather
Noah Force (Cir 1768 - Bef 1851)
I posted most of this item on August 22, 2014, but decided to post again with some additional information.

2. Lorne Bernice Kipp (b Sept. 3, 1901) - Gobles, Oxford Co. ON, Canada

5. Resiah Force (b Feb. 12, 1788) - Sussex County, New Jersey (m Elizabeth Schramm)
6. Noah Force (b cir 1768) - Sussex County, New Jersey (m Mary Beamer)
[Manning Force is a possible father of Noah, but proof is required.]
7. Manning Force (b cir 1730) - Morristown, Morris County, New Jersey (m Lucretia Winchell)
8. Obadiah Force (b cir 1691) - Gravesend, Long Island, New York (m Joanna Manning)
9. Thomas Force (b cir 1670) - Gravesend, Long Island, New York (m Hannah Smith?)
10. Matthew Force (b cir 1645) - Europe (m Elizabeth Palmer)
I have decided to include the parents of Noah Force as Manning Force and Lucretia Winchell. I am doing this for several reasons. They all came from New Jersey. Noah and Mary (Beamer) Force named one of their sons William Manning Force. Also, Obadiah Manning Force a son of Manning Force ended up settling in the same general area of Michigan as some of the descendants of Noah Force.
Please note that this still requires some proof.
The first mention we find of Noah Force is in New Jersey, where he is found on a 1793 tax list, Sussex County, Wantage Township. He is also listed on a militia list in 1793, same location. After discussion with local historians at the Mayholme Foundation, in St. Catharines, we may conclude that Noah came from New Jersey to Upper Canada between 1800 and 1813.
He probably travelled overland by wagon in New Jersey with his family, to the Hudson River, and then New York, where they took shipping on a boat up the Hudson River to Albany. They probably went overland from Albany by wagon to Schenectady, where they would have taken shipping on a boat along the Mohawk River. They would have proceeded by boat to the Carrying Place near Fort Stanwix, crossed along Wood Creek to Oneida Lake and then across the lake to Oswego on Lake Ontario. Here they would have hired another boat to take them to the Niagara River or further west to where the Beamers were settled near 20 mile Creek, west of present day St. Catharines. This trip would have taken them about 6 weeks.
Noah was settled in Louth Township, Upper Canada by mid 1813. He was listed on two Upper Canada Militia lists in Jacob Ball's 1st Regiment Lincoln Militia, dated April 20 to May 29, 1813 and Sept. 19 to 24, 1813. His name appears on a map of Grantham and Louth Township dated December 24, 1814. Checking the land records indicates that Noah did not own the land (Louth Township, conc. 8 lot 14). It was owned by Henry Beamer, his father-in-law.
The Burning of Newark (Niagara-on-the Lake) by the American forces took place on December 10, 1813. It could be that Noah was somehow connected to Joseph Willcocks and his Canadian Volunteers, who wrecked vengeance on the people of the Niagara area in 1813. In November and December of 1813 Canadian militia took prisoners of many suspected traitors in the province. Noah was taken prisoner on December 11, 1813, by Ensign Lewis. All prisoners were sent to the York Gaol to be tried in the court.
He appears on two Petitions of Confined Prisoners dated January 9, 1814 and February 14, 1814. He then appears on a List of Prisoners at York dated March 13, 1814. On all three of these lists he appears along with another prisoner named Levi Lawrence from Burford.
The Bloody Assize trial of 1814 took place starting May 23, 1814 in Ancaster, Upper Canada. The trial lasted until June 21, 1814. Of those held, 19 were found guilty and 8 were hanged. Noah Force and Levi Lawrence were not on the lists of those found guilty or who specifically had there lands confiscated. The remaining prisoners were probably let go. I could not find a reference as to when all prisoners were discharged, but it was probably after the trial in 1814 and maybe even early 1815.
Noah Force appears on an 1824 voters list for Burford Township, Upper Canada, along with Levi Lawrence, Beamers and Kipps. So when he was in Gaol at York, he must have had discussions with Levi who persuaded him to move his family to Burford Township, Brant County, Upper Canada. The Forces were considered to be among the first settlers of Force's Corners or Woodbury, Ontario. [Just south of my hometown of Princeton, Ontario.]
The next interesting item about Noah is found in the War of 1812: Board of Claims for Losses, 1813-1848, RG 19 E5A, Library and Archives Canada. Noah is claiming for the loss of 8 large hogs 3 goats and one bee hive. Date of Affidavits was January 11, 1816. Two claim summaries are found in the American Loyalist Claims, 1776-1835 on Ancestry.com. The National Archives of the UK; Kew, England. Noah appears along with Henry Beamer Sr. and Levi Lawrence. They all made claims for losses that took place during the War of 1812. They all received some payment. For Noah the amount recommended was 22 12 6 33 1/3 p Cont. Currency paid out was 7 10 10 on March 7, 1834 to G W Whitehead attorney for Noah Force.
Noah appears in the Historical Atlas of Oxford & Brant Counties, 1875. Burford Township. Force, Noah, Con 3 lot 13. Settlement date 1845. Farmer. [This is where Woodbury is located!]
We do not know exactly when Noah was born. Since he was on a tax list in 1793 he must have been at least 21, so he was probably born before 1772. We do not know when he died either, but we can suggest it was after 1845 and before 1851. He does not appear on the 1851 Census of Upper Canada.
I need to look at the land records (copy books) for Burford Township. They are located in Brantford, Ontario.
I do know the following:
Henry Beamer had a Crown Patent on Burford, conc 3 lot 12 dated May 13, 1805;
Levi Lawrence had a Crown Patent on Burford, conc 4 lot 12 dated April 24, 1805.
Both of these lots are on the east side of the Burford Township middle town line right at Forces Corners.
William Force (William Manning son of Noah) appears on Burford, conc 3 lot 14 in a land transfer dated Aug. 31, 1839.
Thomas L Force (Thomas Lamport son of Noah) appears on Burford conc 4 lot 13 in a land transfer dated Nov. 23, 1872.

9) The Bloody Assize of 1814. On May 23, 1814 in Ancaster, Upper Canada the trial of 19 men charged with treason began. The trail lasted until June 21, 1814. Of these, 19 were found guilty and 8 were hanged. The remainder of the men were exiled. The other men in the list of Prisoners at York were probably let go. (Assize is an historical term referring to courts that periodically administered civil and criminal law)
10) Noah was discharged from the York Gaol July 15, 1814 or 15 - lack of evidence.
[Cannot find this reference.]
We did some searching in the Archives of Ontario but found no references to Noah.

20) Elizabeth Force who married Benjamin Kipp
I have been thinking about Elizabeth Force for a while and considering who was her father.
As far as I knew there was nothing documenting who her father was. However, if we look at the children of Resiah Force we find there is a time slot between the birth of Charlotte in 1816 and John H in 1820 where Elizabeth Force would fit.
The birth date I have for her, March 19, 1818, came from the tombstone in the Princeton, Ontario Cemetery. I found a copy of a document I have on file, which came from Phyllis Davidge.
It is titled Birth Record of Resiah Force and Elizabeth Force and their children. Elizabeth is listed there.

I posted most of this item on August 22, 2014, but decided to post again with some additional information.

5. Resiah Force (b Feb. 12, 1788) - Sussex County, New Jersey (m Elizabeth Schramm)
6. Noah Force (b cir 1768) - Sussex County, New Jersey (m Mary Beamer)
[Manning Force is a possible father of Noah, but proof is required.]
7. Manning Force (b cir 1730) - Morristown, Morris County, New Jersey (m Lucretia Winchell)
8. Obadiah Force (b cir 1691) - Gravesend, Long Island, New York (m Joanna Manning)
9. Thomas Force (b cir 1670) - Gravesend, Long Island, New York (m Hannah Smith?)
10. Matthew Force (b cir 1645) - Europe (m Elizabeth Palmer)
I have decided to include the parents of Noah Force as Manning Force and Lucretia Winchell. I am doing this for several reasons. They all came from New Jersey. Noah and Mary (Beamer) Force named one of their sons William Manning Force. Also, Obadiah Manning Force a son of Manning Force ended up settling in the same general area of Michigan as some of the descendants of Noah Force.
Please note that this still requires some proof.
The first mention we find of Noah Force is in New Jersey, where he is found on a 1793 tax list, Sussex County, Wantage Township. He is also listed on a militia list in 1793, same location. After discussion with local historians at the Mayholme Foundation, in St. Catharines, we may conclude that Noah came from New Jersey to Upper Canada between 1800 and 1813.
He probably travelled overland by wagon in New Jersey with his family, to the Hudson River, and then New York, where they took shipping on a boat up the Hudson River to Albany. They probably went overland from Albany by wagon to Schenectady, where they would have taken shipping on a boat along the Mohawk River. They would have proceeded by boat to the Carrying Place near Fort Stanwix, crossed along Wood Creek to Oneida Lake and then across the lake to Oswego on Lake Ontario. Here they would have hired another boat to take them to the Niagara River or further west to where the Beamers were settled near 20 mile Creek, west of present day St. Catharines. This trip would have taken them about 6 weeks.
Noah was settled in Louth Township, Upper Canada by mid 1813. He was listed on two Upper Canada Militia lists in Jacob Ball's 1st Regiment Lincoln Militia, dated April 20 to May 29, 1813 and Sept. 19 to 24, 1813. His name appears on a map of Grantham and Louth Township dated December 24, 1814. Checking the land records indicates that Noah did not own the land (Louth Township, conc. 8 lot 14). It was owned by Henry Beamer, his father-in-law.
The Burning of Newark (Niagara-on-the Lake) by the American forces took place on December 10, 1813. It could be that Noah was somehow connected to Joseph Willcocks and his Canadian Volunteers, who wrecked vengeance on the people of the Niagara area in 1813. In November and December of 1813 Canadian militia took prisoners of many suspected traitors in the province. Noah was taken prisoner on December 11, 1813, by Ensign Lewis. All prisoners were sent to the York Gaol to be tried in the court.
He appears on two Petitions of Confined Prisoners dated January 9, 1814 and February 14, 1814. He then appears on a List of Prisoners at York dated March 13, 1814. On all three of these lists he appears along with another prisoner named Levi Lawrence from Burford.
The Bloody Assize trial of 1814 took place starting May 23, 1814 in Ancaster, Upper Canada. The trial lasted until June 21, 1814. Of those held, 19 were found guilty and 8 were hanged. Noah Force and Levi Lawrence were not on the lists of those found guilty or who specifically had there lands confiscated. The remaining prisoners were probably let go. I could not find a reference as to when all prisoners were discharged, but it was probably after the trial in 1814 and maybe even early 1815.
Noah Force appears on an 1824 voters list for Burford Township, Upper Canada, along with Levi Lawrence, Beamers and Kipps. So when he was in Gaol at York, he must have had discussions with Levi who persuaded him to move his family to Burford Township, Brant County, Upper Canada. The Forces were considered to be among the first settlers of Force's Corners or Woodbury, Ontario. [Just south of my hometown of Princeton, Ontario.]
The next interesting item about Noah is found in the War of 1812: Board of Claims for Losses, 1813-1848, RG 19 E5A, Library and Archives Canada. Noah is claiming for the loss of 8 large hogs 3 goats and one bee hive. Date of Affidavits was January 11, 1816. Two claim summaries are found in the American Loyalist Claims, 1776-1835 on Ancestry.com. The National Archives of the UK; Kew, England. Noah appears along with Henry Beamer Sr. and Levi Lawrence. They all made claims for losses that took place during the War of 1812. They all received some payment. For Noah the amount recommended was 22 12 6 33 1/3 p Cont. Currency paid out was 7 10 10 on March 7, 1834 to G W Whitehead attorney for Noah Force.
Noah appears in the Historical Atlas of Oxford & Brant Counties, 1875. Burford Township. Force, Noah, Con 3 lot 13. Settlement date 1845. Farmer. [This is where Woodbury is located!]
We do not know exactly when Noah was born. Since he was on a tax list in 1793 he must have been at least 21, so he was probably born before 1772. We do not know when he died either, but we can suggest it was after 1845 and before 1851. He does not appear on the 1851 Census of Upper Canada.
I need to look at the land records (copy books) for Burford Township. They are located in Brantford, Ontario.
I do know the following:
Henry Beamer had a Crown Patent on Burford, conc 3 lot 12 dated May 13, 1805;
Levi Lawrence had a Crown Patent on Burford, conc 4 lot 12 dated April 24, 1805.
Both of these lots are on the east side of the Burford Township middle town line right at Forces Corners.
William Force (William Manning son of Noah) appears on Burford, conc 3 lot 14 in a land transfer dated Aug. 31, 1839.
Thomas L Force (Thomas Lamport son of Noah) appears on Burford conc 4 lot 13 in a land transfer dated Nov. 23, 1872.

Brant County Museum, Brantford, Ontario and Princeton, Ontario - October 2014
Last weekend we drove to southwestern Ontario to attend a wedding. Along the way, I managed to fit in a few hours of research at the Brant County Museum in Brantford, Ontario. This museum is run by the Brant County Historical Society.
My main reason for being there was, that they have recently made available for public use the older Land Registry Copy Books for Brant Count, which includes Burford Township, where many of my ancestors settled and lived.
We were able to photograph the first two concessions of the copy books for Burford from the Crown Grant to about 1900 for lots 1 to 24. We also photographed various lots along the middle townline of Burford. That would be specifically Concession 3, 4 and 5 from lots 10 through 15.
I noticed lots of entries for my families of interest, Kipp, Link, Rathbun, Ryder, Force, and Beamer.
It will take a few days to read them and pick out the information I want.
I also found time to visit my hometown of Princeton, Ontario.
The main reason was to look at a Schultz tombstone in the local cemetery. It has been there for a number of years and had no names on the stone. Either side of the stone there are three markers. One say Mother 1873-1952, the second says Father 1867-1939, the third reads Wilfred 1903-1937.
In reality Mother and Father are Elizabeth Kipp and Charles William Schultz, my 1st cousin once removed and granduncle respectively.
At the September 2013 Schultz reunion, it was decided to add their names to the stone. This was approved at the 2014 reunion and completed. The lettering looks great and now it is easy for relatives to know who rests there.
