2	From Ancesry.com: Massachusetts Soldiers and Sailors in the War of the Revolution (Records 11,250-11,274), Pg. 840 Beal, Abel, Hinghan or Cohasset. Private, Capt. Peter Cushing's Co., Col. Solomon Lovel's regt.; pay roll for 3 days service in Aug., 1777, at Hull. Abel was an American Revolution soldier and inlisted in 1775 in Lieutenant Obadiah Beal's detachment of guards. He was listed on a roll made from December 12, 1775 to April 3, 1776 - three months and 24 days. The detachment was stationed at Hull Beach, Mass. On December 14, 1776 he enlisted as a Private in Captain Peter Cushing's Company of Colonel Solomon Lovel's regiment. This company assembled at Hull, Mass, and served four days. Private Beal was also on the payroll of Captain Thomas Nash's Company of Colonel David Cushing's regiment for three days of service in August, 1777, again in Hull. (Boulder Genealogy Society, Vol 10 A3, Aug 1978) Abel's will was dated March 2, 1805 and proved May 14, 1805. It provided for his wife and unmarried daughter, Deborah. His wife's name was shown as Elizabeth. (This can not be a third wife because his widow, Susannah, lived until 1810. Perhaps it was an alternate name for Susannah since he also had a daughter with that name). Daughters Susannah received $5., Ruth $15., Anna $10. and Abigail $10. His oldest daughter, Celia, received land and was responsible for paying these amounts to her sisters. Three of his sons also received cash: Stowers $15., Micah $20 and Abel $2. (Dose this small amount reflect the fact that the first born son left home in his early 20's and went to live in Nova Scotia?). The remainder and bulk of the estate went to his son Seth. An inventory of the estate established a total value of $2,438.30 which has the purchasing power of $40,400 in today's money.	Abel Beal, Sr.

39	Jeremiah Beal, the seventh child of John Beal, was known as "Lieutenant" having been commissioned to the rank in the Hingham Train Band May 20, 1683. He was Constable in 1672, a Selectman in 1671, 1673 and 1684 and a Representative in 1691, 1692 and 1701. He and his family lived on Bachelor (Main) Street near the meeting house of the First Parish. He was a blacksmith and a cabinet maker and had a cabinet shop in the nearby town of Cohasset. In 1690 he built a house for his son John on East Street near Hull Street and in later years lived there with his son and family. That house still exists though it has undergone many alterations and additions. And Jeremiah still lives there too .... as a ghost. The present owners (1980) of the house from time to time have felt his presence.	Jeremiah Beal

43	When John, the tenth child of Edward Beales, brought the name to North America he changed the spelling to "Beal". It wasn't until he had reached the age of 50 that he took up the challenge of leaving his homeland to become a pioneer in a strange new country. He came from Hingham, Norfolk Co., England and arrived at Boston on the vessel "Diligent" on August 10, 1638. He brought with him his wife, Nazareth, five sons, three daughters and two servants. One of the servants may have been his brother Edmond's son also named John. They settled in Hingham, Massachusetts which is a few miles southeast of Boston. John was no doubt well aware of the new settlement. Ralph Smith had come from Hingham, Eng. in 1633 and founded Hingham, Mass. Additionally John's wife's parents and family had arrived in Charlestown, Mass. the same year and her brother, Rev. Peter Hobart was the first minister of Hingham. Not long after arrival John Beal became a landholder obtaining a grant of six acres for a house lot on what is now the south side of South Street west of Hersey Street. On the 13th of March, 1639 he was admitted to the freedom of Massachusetts Colony and thus became a "freeman". He was deputy of the general court in 1640 and 1659. He was a shoemaker, a trade that seems to have been passed down to succeding generations. John Beal died at the age of 100.	John Beales Beal
