This page is devoted to all of the documents and records collected for the Charles Beaujean family. He was a soldier in the American Revolution. He was known as Pierre Charles Beaujean in Guadeloupe and seemed to split his time between New England and Guadeloupe. He died in 1799 in Guadeloupe reportedly of Yellow Fever. He left two wives and two families. Charles married Anna Kimberly in 1779 and had 3 children. She is the person who eventually claimed his Revolutionary War pension. Anna raised the 3 children and moved the family to New York. She eventually moved to Mayville, NY to be near her son Moses. She lived until 1844.

 

Charles married Lucy Snow in 1784 and had 4 children with her. There is no evidence he had contact with his first family after his second marriage. He spent his remaining years shuttling between Newburyport, Massachusetts and the island of Guadeloupe.
