No, I don't have Anna's maiden name. We only have the Birth and Death dates from the Oldroyd-Beckwith Bible. This gives dates only.
Anna Beckwith died May 18th 1837, aged 85 years and five months.
Silas Beckwith died August 3, 1834, aged81 Years 11 Month 27 days.
This would make Anna born about 10 August 1752, and Silas born about 28 December 1752.
I believe the censuses give their state of birth as Connecticut.
Apparently, there were two Silas beckwiths in the Elmira are for a while, so which is which?
