BEDDOE, EARL PERCY (1822-1876). Earl Percy Beddoe, pioneer civil engineer, was born on January 30, 1822, in eastern Tennessee, son of Philip Tolbert and Catherine (Parr) Beddoe. He married Martha Caroline Hembree on October 12, 1843, in Tennessee, and they had nine children. In 1845, after an education in civil engineering, Beddoe moved to Texas, lived in Marshall, where he built a tanyard, then in 1850 settled in Sabinetown, where he established a saddle and harness business. He served for a while there as school principal; he was named county surveyor of Sabine County and laid out the town of Hemphill as the new county seat in 1859. Beddoe acted as a courier during the Civil War , and as a civil engineer he figured in the planning of fortifications at Sabine Pass in 1863 (see SABINE PASS, BATTLE OF ). He helped plan and execute the embankments or breastworks fortifying Sabinetown in 1864. In 1869 or early 1870 the family moved to Sabine Parish, Louisiana, but soon after 1871 they moved to Navarro County, Texas, where Beddoe died on November 27, 1876, in Chatfield.

Virgie Speights writes, in OLD TIMERS OF SABINE COUNTY, that he established a tan yard, taught school and put in a stagecoach inn. He was also a surveyor and surveyed the town of Hemphill in 1858, when the county seat was moved from Milam. As many people objected to this move, the surveying was begun in the middle of the night. (p. 35).
There was an article featuring a photograph of Earl Percy Beddoe in the October 2, 2013 issue of The Sabine County Reporter. The article was a story about a recent Civil War reenactment at Sabine Pass, during which the William Henry Parsons Camp #415, Sons of Confederate Veterans honored Earl Percy Beddoe, and early resident of Sabine County, whose family later moved to Chatfield, a community in Navarro County, Texas, where the Parsons Camp is located.

4. | Phillip Tolbert Beddoe was born on 19 Jul 1790 in England, United Kingdom; died about 1861 in Sabinetown, Sabine County, Texas; was buried in Sabinetown Cemetery, Sabine County, Texas. Notes:
Philip Tolbert Beddoe was Malvina Parr Beddoe's grandfather. He was the head of the American branch of the Beddoe family. On your page, you list him as being born "before 1802" and dying "yes, unknown." He was actually born in England on 19 July 1790 and he died in 1861 in Sabinetown, Texas. He is buried in Sabinetown.
He married Catherine Parr on 10 February 1820 in Moravintown, NC. [possibly Wachovia, North Carolina, settled by Moravian around 1753]. She died in 1873. Their son, Earl Percy Beddoe was born 30 January 1822. His daughter Malvina Parr Beddoe was born 18 August 1844. She married Pedras Philip Davidson 17 September 1865.
Are you descended from these Beddoes? If so, you are descended from Welsh royalty.

Virgie Speights writes that Philip Tolbert Beddoe was one of six children born in East Tennessee to Thomas Beddoe, a son of Charles Beddoe and Lydia Nash of Withypool, England, who came to America and settled first in Philadelphia, later moving to Tennessee.
