     Judge Daniel Beede Esq was born on 21 July 1729 at Kingston, Rockingham, NH, USA.¹ He was the son of Eli Beede and Mehitable Sleeper.¹ Judge Daniel Beede Esq married Patience Prescott on 5 February 1750 at Kingston, Rockingham, NH, USA.¹ Sandwich became an entity in the minds of a few people when Oct. 25, 1763, Gov. Benning Wentworth divided a certain tract of land into 72 shares for the following purposes
1. 2 shares (500 acres) for the Governor.
2. 1 share for the propagation of the Gospel in foreign parts.
3. 1 share for the glebe of Church of England.
4. 1 share for first settled minister.
5. 1 share for schools.
The remaining 66 shares—1 share each to 66 individuals who became proprietors of the new town. As the time was limited, the proprietors immediately set about to find a leader of the band of Settlers, and they decided that Daniel Beede of Gilmanton was the best person to become father to the enterprise.
He was 38 years old, and his life haved that he possessed the characteristics which they desired: Executive qualities in a large degree, sound judgement, great prudence, sterling integrity, unfailing hospitality. on 25 October 1763 at Sandwich, Strafford, NH, USA.² Judge Daniel Beede Esq moved in 1767 to Sandwich, Strafford, NH, USA; In 1767, he was called to settle Sandwich. As an inducement to come to Sandwich, he was promised 100 acres of land for each of his children—tradition says each of his sons.
Leaving his farm in charge of his second son, Daniel, Jr., he and his wife, Israel Gilman and his wife, fifteen laborers, and Mary Wells, a hired girl, came to Sandwich in Nov., 1767.
We suppose that they came across Lake Winnepesaukee from Gilmanton to Clark’s Landing in Moultonborough Falls. Then they climbed Red Hill that they might decide upon a location for the first house. They decided that what is now know as Wentworth Hill was the most desirable spot, and journeyed thither through unbroken forests, and mires, and swamps. The very same day they reached the top of the hill, they built a log house. Snow fell that night. Daniel Beede took cold and had a fever, and through that long illness, he was cared for by Dr. Rogers of Plymouth, who came across country, his only guide being spotted trees.
We are not told that Daniel’s son Nathan came with the party, but Nathan, himself, claims that he felled the first tree cut in Sandwich. The fact of Nathan’s presence here may explain why Daniel, Jr., a lad of fifteen, was left to attend to the Gilmanton farm.
Five log houses were built in the autumn of 1767, as follows: Daniel Beede, Jeremiah Hilton, Jeremiah Page, David Bean, and John Prescott—all on high land within a comparatively short distance from the present Wentworth hill location. Others were built during the winter. The next great piece of work, after sites were chosen and log houses were built, was the building of roads from house to house.
Then the town must be surveyed, and this was done in 1769 by Daniel Beede. The territory was divided into 4 short and 13 long ranges. A short range contained 6 lots, and a long range from 29 to 31 lots. A plan was drawn, and the town accepted this plan in 1771. This plan is not now in existence—only an imperfect copy.
The first town meeting was held in 1772 in Daniel Beede’s house. He was elected Town Clerk, and served in that capacity twelve years—until 1794. He was elected on the first board of selectmen and served nine times., the last term ending in 1792. He was the first Justice of the Peace, 1775, holding that position until his appointment as Judge of the Court of Common Pleas for Stafford County. He was Representative with some interruptions for 1775 to 1795. He was Judge from 1795 to 1799, when he resigned to take effect upon his seventieth birthday. In 1775, he was a delegate to the 5th Provincial Congress at Exeter, and a delegate to the first Constitutional Convention in 1791-92. He served the town during his entire life in Sandwich—1767 to 1800. All town meeting were held in his house from 1772 to 1792. Then the town meetings were held in the church, which stood where [omitted in copy].
Daniel Beede built the first mills in town (saw and grist) at the lower end of the village where the ruins now remain. His son Cyrus, and later his grandson Stephen, lived in the house nearby. He had many fights with wolves as he journeyed from his home to these mills. The wolves continued to be a menace to the inhabitants until the "Great Wolf Hunt" in 1830, when "800 warriors of all ages" led by Gen. Johnson D. Quimby killed some, wounded many, and the remainder of the pack fled to the mountains never to return to Sandwich or Tamworth.
When he came to Sandwich in 1767, he brought with him a helper in the housekeeping, Mary Wells. Mary married Benjamin Blanchard, one of the fifteen laborers who came with the party. Later, Dorothy Scribner agree to come to help Mrs. Beede after Daniel promised her that she should marry one of his sons, and the record reads, "Married—July 15, 1770—Nathan Beede and Dolly Scribner.²" The Association Test—which was really a declaration of independence and preceded the National Declaration by some months—was sent by order of the General Congress to the inhabitants of New Hampshire, April 12, 1776. If the cause to which these patriotic citizens pledged themselves had been defeated, they would have been hanged as traitors. 8199 persons in New Hampshire signed it—773 refused to sign. Some of those who refused to sign were Tories; some were Quakers; some had not the courage. Of the 46 voters in Sandwich, 38 signed it. Among that number were Daniel and Daniel Jr. Nathan and Aaron were Quakers and refused to sign.

     Eli Beede was born in 1699 at Isle of Jersey, Channel Islands, France.¹ He immigrated in 1713; He was filled with a great desire to see more of the world than the little island could show him, and so, in 1713, when he was fourteen years old, he hid himself away in the hold of a sailing vessel and came to America.
In due time the little ship sailed, and in due time he was discovered and brought before the captain. When the captain, who was prepared to be very stern and severe, saw the boy, he relented and set about to find a task by which he should earn his food. He saw that his grimy fingers were delicate and had be trained to work "the most refined." He had among the articles for the colonial trade, large boxes of stockings knit by English dames. These stockings had become moth-eaten, and the young Eli soon proved that he could mend them to be as good as new. So he paid his passage, and landed safely—tradition says in Boston and tradition says in Portsmouth. He loved the country, and immediately set out to find employment on a farm. He went to Hampton, apprenticed himself to a farmer, and lived with this same farmer until he was 21. Tradition says that his indenture paid whatever remained of his passage money. He had gained a knowledge of farming and decided to go to Kingston, then East Kingston. There he went to work to make a living, and make a living he did.² He married Mehitable Sleeper, daughter of Aaron Sleeper and Elizabeth Shaw, in 1720 at Kingston, Rockingham, NH, USA.¹ Eli Beede was church member on 14 March 1742 at Kingston Church, Kingston, Rockingham, NH, USA.¹ He died on 8 May 1789 at Kingston, Rockingham, NH, USA.¹ He was buried on 1 June 1789 at Kingston, Rockingham, NH, USA.¹
