Baldwinsville, N.Y., Episcopal clergyman and author of Indian names in New York (1893), Iroquois trail (1892), etc.
William Martin Beauchamp (25 March 1830 - 13 December 1925), archaeologist, historian, and Episcopalian minister, was in his time the "greatest authority on the history and institutions of the Iroquois" (DAB v. 2., p. 103-104). He was born in Coldenham, Orange County, New York but was raised in Skaneateles, Onondaga County, New York where his family moved in 1831. Beauchamp was educated at Skaneateles Academy and the Delancey Divinity School in Geneva, New York. The latter prepared him for ordination in the priesthood of the Episcopalian Church in 1863. He spent most of his career in the ministry as rector of Grace Church in Baldwinsville, New York, serving from 1 July 1865 to 1 October 1900, when he retired. Thereafter he moved to Syracuse, where he devoted much of his time to research and writing on the Iroquois. His interest in the Iroquois began in his childhood, and was increased by his friendship with Albert Cusick, an Onondaga in orders in the Episcopal Church. From him, Beauchamp gained much valuable information. Beauchamp was especially learned in the archaeology of Iroquoian implements and other artifacts and published several studies on them. He also published works on aspects of Iroquoian culture that enhanced the overall understanding of New York State history, including works on aboriginal place names in the State. He also possessed unusual skill in sketching Native American relics.
These sketches were often included in many of his published bulletins for the New York State Museum. He was also active in promoting the Onondaga Historical Association of Syracuse and was a member many learned societies. He was married to Sarah Carter of Ravenna, Ohio, 26 November 1857.
