Nathaniel Beckwith lived in the Hadlyme Parish, a section of East Haddam, CT, now known as the Fourth Parish. He died on 17 March 1716-17 and had to be interred in the Second Yard which was closer by. The distance from Hadlyme to the Old Cove Burying Ground is about 8 miles while the Second Yard was just a mile or so away. His wife Sarah [Brockway] Beckwith died on 9 January 1739-40 and was interred in the Second Yard where her simple fieldstone marker may be seen today.

Dr. David Patterson quoted in his note-book that the fieldstone marked "N B 1717" was taken from the Old Cove Burying Ground. This is incorrect as he should have said the Second Yard. It appears that he was misinformed to some degree.

He most likely was born in the old Beckwith house built c. 1645 in East Lyme, CT still standing on Bride Brook Road, near the Women's State Prison in Niantic. The main house with a large center chimney was added c. 1750 with the earlier house attached. It is a beautiful piece of property with the house sitting on a knoll, set way back from the main road.

The bond was posted on the estate of Nathaniel Beckwith by his widow Sarah Beckwith and William Brockway of Lyme on 7 May 1717 [Probate file #401]. The inventory was taken by Isaac Spencer and John Willey on 3 April 1717. The distribution of the estate took place on 5 November 1718. The probate files make it very clear that the appraisers and distributors of the estate all lived in the Hadlyme parish [4th Society] and were neighbors as well.
