Michael Moses Beaujean & Antha Peck Family

 

This page is devoted to all of the documents and records collected for the Moses Beaujean family. Michael Moses Beaujean was the oldest child of Charles Beaujean and Anna Kimberly. It is unlkely he knew his father who abandoned the family in 1784 and started a new family with a new wife. Perhaps because of this, Moses was attentive to his mother. When he left Roxbury Connecticut for New York he made arrangements with the town officials for the care of his mother. Eventually he moved her to New York where he settled.

Michael M Baujean and George R Beaujean Life Estate Agreement

 

This agreement passed the estate of Michael Moses Beaujean to his grandson George while Michael was still alive. It provided for care of Michael and wife Anthy. This document bypassed Michael's children in favor of his grandson. George's father Charles was apparently very unhappy with this arrangement. He left his son George out of his own will when he died in 1878.
