DAR Real Daughter

Thirzah Hazzard Kinsley Beal was born on October 6, 1810, in Springfield, New Hampshire, to James Carr and Betsey (Greeley) Hazzard. She was the youngest of eleven children, and the second named Thirsah, a previous child with that name most likely having died.

She was first married to Silas Kinsley on Christmas Day, 1833. Her second husband was Colonel Selah Beal of Lyme, New Hampshire. After Selah's death, Mrs. Beal resided in Brockton, Massachusetts, where she lived with her daughter.

In 1899, she applied to the DAR and joined the Deborah Sampson Chapter, MA. She died in Lebanon, New Hampshire, on August 29, 1900, while she was visiting her sister Lucy Hazzard Emerson, also a Real Daughter. She is buried with her first husband.

Her chapter reported to the Brockton Times, "Mrs. Beal was a very pleasant woman to meet; below the minimum height with a low musical voice, wore the daintiest of lace caps and was a typical gentlewoman."

Her patriot father was Corporal James Carr Hazzard, who was born in Newbury, Massachusetts, on August 2, 1759, and died in Springfield, New Hampshire, on March 24, 1837. He served as corporal from New Hampshire with the Continental Army.
