Welcome to our
website! This is a work in progress.
The DeBeeson name is a hybrid name. My
father was born
George Dejean Beeson in Shickley, Nebraska
on May 31, 1897. After his Navy days, George
had a legal name change, joining the De to
Beeson. He Married Lillian Puckett when he
discharged from the U.S. Navy Air Corps in 1918 in
Bremerton, WA. They had two children, Beryl
and George "Bud". My father trained for the
Navy Air Corps in 1918 and flew for 20 years
afterward (including stunt flying); had a sign
business; worked in the aircraft industry;
developed an
automatic pilot; progressed with
his artwork to become an animator for Walt
Disney Studios for several years then on to Walt
Lanz and Univeral Studios; created and
manufactured an extensive line of ceramics;
painted volumes of landscapes and seascapes; built
several violins as well as played them; was a
"jack of all trades" and good at many. I
remember growing up thinking, "My dad can make
anything", and I think he could have. In
fact, we built a cello together when I was
15 that I still
play after almost 50 years. He has a
very interesting story I've already detailed in a
website called
Untold Story. He married my mother,
Opal Kampmeier in 1940 and had one child, a boy
named Max. Up to this point we have the
Beesons, DeJeans, Kampmeiers, and Eckmans.
Max married Susan Herbinaux in 1963 which connects
with Havens, Herdman, and Herbinaux. Max and
Susan had 3 children. One son,deceased with
no issue, two daughters-one with 4 children and
the other with none. That brings in the
McIsaac and Hiltz families. Some of the
items in the site are more complete than others,
but we will attempt to add information as it is
acquired. I'm a Pastor and have included
some links and resources in the Christian
realm. I'm a musician and photographer and
am including some things in that realm as
well. Check out the photo albums and links
we have listed. After many years as a
Pastor's wife and mother, Susan has drawn from her
life-long interest in people and relationship
challenges to become a published author of two
novels in a series of three. We have added a
page for Susan's books in the Journey
Series: Jennifer's
Journey, Jennifer's
Healing,and Jennifer's
Joy. I hope you enjoy our
website!--Max DeBeeson |
