Cannot remember the given name Pleasant in any other lineage but others would know for certain. This is the census on Andrew. Note he is next to L-9 Joseph Conley who is married to Harriet Elizabeth Beatty and a Joseph Beaty. Will track the Joseph Beatty in the next e-mail and he has a son Pleasant. There is another Andrew Beatty married to Rachel Yates and born in TN who is next to the children of Joseph and Harriet Elizabeth Beatty Conley.

From looking at the 1840 Chariton/Carroll Co., MO census, I would bet that there is an L-2 connection. Around 1800 L-2 has brothers Andrew, Alexander, James, & William living in Cumberland [later Clinton] Co., KY and the other close relatives/supposed brothers John, George, David and Pleasant just across the state line in what became Fentress Co., TN. Before at least 1777 until about 1800 the family was in the area that became Sullivan Co., TN. Records of the family have turned up in Washington Co., VA and probably will be in earlier VA counties to which the area first belonged as well.

James S. Beattie, Company "L" 210 N. Y. Infantry, War With Spain; James Beattie, Guardian (minor's certificate #508,095) On July 28, 1899 James Beattie a resident of No. 114 North 8th Street, Brooklyn, Kings County, New York filed a claim for Pension of Children under sixteen years of age. James Beattie is the guardian of the minor heirs of James Beattie who served in Company "L" 201st Regt. N. Y. in the War with Spain and who died of typhoid fever at Greenville, South Carolina on Dec. 30, 1898. He left no surviving widow. His children by his deceased wife, Margaret Silk Beattie were Nellie Beattie born Jan. 16, 1882; John Beattie born April 19(?) 1884 and Mamie Beattie born Aug. 1, 1886. James Beattie, aged 75, states in a separate affidavit that the soldier's full name was James Sylvester Beattie and was born at Brooklyn New York. He was 36 years old when he enlisted and his residence was #73 No 4th St., Brooklyn, New York. He was 5 feet 7 inches and had light brown hair and blue eyes. A copy of the death certificate of Margaret Beattie shows that she died on September 4, 1892 at the age of 29 and was buried at Calvary on Sept. 6, 1892. Her parent's birthplace is given as Ireland; they are not named. A certificate of Baptism from St. Peter & Pauls Church of Brooklyn New York shows that Helen Beatty was born January 16, 1882 and baptized January 29, 1882; Helen & Joseph Beatty were her sponsors. A certificate of Baptism from St. Vincent de Pauls Church, 167 North 6th St. shows that John, son of James Beattie and Margaret Silk, was born April 5th 1884 and baptized April 20, 1884; William Finn and Margaret Dowd were his sponsors. A copy of the marriage record for James Beattie and Margaret Sullivan, married Nov. 28, 1880 at St. Brigid's Church, New York City is in the file; William Joseph Finn and Elizabeth Fitzpatrick were witnesses to the marriage. Because the marriage certificate has a different maiden name for Margaret a Special Examination is ordered. In deposition taken Jan. 24, 1901 James Beattie states his age is about 75 and his residence is 98 Bedford Ave., Brooklyn, New York. He is the father of the late soldier James Beattie. He states "his body was sent home and buried at in Calvary." He also states "My son married Margaret Silk, about 20 years ago, can not give date. I was not home at the time, but very soon after, he was never married before. I knew his wife from childhood, knew her parents John and Margaret Silk, both dead, she had no brothers and sisters. I am positive that she was never married before, and she never went by the name of Sullivan, always knew her as Silk, she died the day before Labor day in Sept. of 1892, after her death my son did not remarry again, were never divorced, they had three children, Ellen "Nellie" she was 19 Jan. 16, 1901 you can figure the date of birth "Jan. 16, 1882" John he will be 17 in April 1901 can not give date. Mary Agnus "Mamie" she will be 15 next birth day, Aug. 1901, can not give date. All children are living. My son's middle name was Sylvester that was his confirmation name but he always went by the name of James..I am the guardian of the children and John and Mary Agnus have always been under my care, they both live with me at 98 Bedford Avenue, Brooklyn, New York. John Beattie, aged 40 residing at 194 N. 9th St., Brooklyn, New York states "James Beatie was my brother." Harriet Beattie, aged 38 states "I am the wife of John Beattie, my husband is the brother of James Beattie." Joseph A. Beattie, aged 39 residing at 98 Bedford Ave., Brooklyn New York states "I am the brother of the late James Beattie." Hannah Beattie, aged 40 states "I am the wife of Joseph A. Beattie" Mary McGuire, aged 37 residing at 179 Bedford Ave., Brooklyn, New York states "I am the wife of Dennis McGuire, the soldier James Beattie was my brother, he served in Co. L 210 NY Inf.. I am positive he was never married before until his marriage to Margaret Silk, Nov. 20, 1880. I knew her about 9 years before her marriage, her parents were John and Margaret Silk. I never knew the wife of the soldier by any other name than Silk." Pension was granted and paid until Jan. 9, 1904 until the youngest child Mary A. reached the age of 16. The following correspondence from Mrs. Mary A. Hogan is in the file: Nov. 22, 1932 Brooklyn, New York Dear Sir, I have written a few lines to the War Dept. concerning studies my children are taking up in school on all the wars in America and when it came to the Spanish war the children needed help so I sat down and wrote to the War Dept. in Washington and asked for information concerning my father. They sent me a paper to fill out and I am sending it through for you to look over. I went to his regiment where he drilled and they filled it out for me as my people never spoke of his death, the news I got of his death was from strangers that knew him. Looking over the Cyclopedia from the Literary Digest 1932 I see the Congress passed a bill of a vast sum of money for the Spanish War Veterans that died and their Dependents would be taken care of. Would you please furnish me with the information if I am entitled to any of that money. I was taken out of the home after his death. My guardians did not bother much with me. They put me to work in the ??mill when I hit the age of 15. They told me to shift for myself. Life was one struggle-now married 20 years. I am 44 -old enough to understand more. If there is more information you want me to gather for you I will be glad to do so. I thank you. Yours Respectfully Mrs. Hogan 952 Lorimer St. Brooklyn, New York P. S. Please excuse me for holding out so long as I am getting out of a sick bed and is still nerves. The following reply was sent Dec. 20, 1932 Dear Madam: This is to reply to your letter of recent date. The records show that two minor children of the above named soldier, John and Mary, were granted pension under the Act of the War with Spain, which was paid them until April 4, 1900 and July 31, 1902 when they each attained the age of sixteen years and their names were dropped from the rolls. It appears that the Mary A. was presumably yourself. There is nothing pending in the office at this time and there is no further payment due. Respectfully, E. W.

George Beatty, Company "C" 7th Tennessee Cavalry, widow Zilpha Beatty (application # 200,371) The following letter, written June 11, 1872 explains to some extent the manifestly unfair action taken on this pension: Commissioner of Pensions, Washington, D. C. Sir, Referring to your letter of 31 ultimate requesting to be informed whether objection still exists to the taking up of the "Beatty Scouts" pension claims for action, I have the honor to inform you that in view of the fraudulent claims against the Government successfully manipulated by members of that force, objection still exist to the consideration of claims in favor of any person connected with Beatty's Scouts & Guides, unless each & every claim shall be severally submitted for the examination of this office. It is therefore suggested that such Beatty Scout claims as have been presented to the Commissioner for settlements be referred to this office, as, in view of the foregoing the ultimate care is necessary in the examination of each claim. I am Sir, Very Respectfully Your obedient servant E. D. Townsend Adjutant General On November 18, 1871 Zilpha Beatty of Jamestown, Fentress County, Tennessee filed an application for a widow's Pension. She states that she is the widow of George Beatty and she was married to said George on May 12, 1852 by Joshua Owens at the house of Austin Choates; her maiden name was Beatty. [See Bounty Land Claim for Eleazor Beatty, Zilpha is his daughter-- Abeazor or Aby (also Eleazor) Beaty, Act of 55-120 Wt # 36,241; Private in Capt. Carson Co. Tenn. Mil. COPIED Excerpts: William Dabney is the guardian of Zilpha Beaty, wife of George Beaty and daughter of Abeazor or Aby Beaty who is 17 years old. State of Tennessee, Fentress County. I certify that I live about one mile and a half from George Beaty & his wife Zilphy that I have known them ever since they were small children that said Zelphy was the daughter of Aley Beaty who was a soldier in the war of 1812. I further certify that I have been intimately acquainted with Aley Beaty for thirty years before his death, that he died in Fentress County Tennessee about six or so years ago?? nine miles from me. That his wife Viney(?) Beaty deceased on Stone(?) River about 14 years ago. That he never married after the death of said Viney. That I well know all his children that they was all over twenty years of age on the 28th day of September 1850 except Zilphy Beaty who married George Beaty & she is now just turned into her 17th year of age. I married her & said George last May was a year ago. Given under my hand this 6th day of August 1853. Joshua Owen Justice of the Peace.] Zilpha had the following children under the age of 16 at the time of George Beatty's death: Mary Elizabeth born July 12, 1854 James born October 31, 1856 Margaret A. born January 27, 1858 Zilpha states that George Beatty enlisted January 1862 as a Private in Captain David Beatty's Independent Scouts and was captured by Bledsoe's Rebel Company on or about April 1, 1862 and has not been heard from since April 1, 1863. (Oct. 31, 1871) Charlotte Stephens a resident of the 4th Civil District of Fentress County, Tennessee states that she was present at the birth of James Beatty on October 31, 1856. She is a near neighbor to Zilpha and knows her other two children as well. (Oct. 31, 1871) Armilda (??) Beatty, a resident of the 3rd Civil District of Fentress County, Tennessee, states that she was present at the birth of Margaret Armilda on Jan. 27, 1858. Armilda is also a near neighbor to Zilpha. Zilpha's claim was rejected and the following letter sent from the War Department: War Department Adjutant General's Office March 20, 1874 Respectfully returned to the Commissioner of Pensions. An examination of the record of George Beaty shows that if he ever belonged to Beaty's Scouts and Guides he left in March 31, 1862 and did not there after rejoin it. It is further shown that a fraudulent claim against the Government has been successfully manipulated in behalf of Zilpha Beaty, the present claimant and Treasury Certificate # 577,346 for $910.20 awarded her for alleged service of her husband from Jan. 25, 1862 to Oct. 19, 1864 when it is positively known that he rendered little if any service to the government. In view of the voluminous evidence of fraud connected with the claims of this force on file in this office the affidavits presented with this application for pension cannot be relied on and the War Department declines to recognize or make a record of the case of George Beaty. Zilpha A. Beaty filed another claim for Pension on December 11, 1879; she is now 45 years old. She states that George Beaty died in a Rebel Prison in Saulsboro, N. Carolina of a disease not known to her. Another note from the War Department, dated May 4, 1880: Respectfully returned to the Commissioner of Pensions- The data requested in the case of George Beaty, an alleged member of "Captain David Beaty's Company of Scouts and Guides," cannot be furnished, the roll of that company (one only, being on file in this office) having been established to be incorrect and untrue. A careful examination of the Prisoner of War Records shows the following in the case: "George Beaty, citizen, Fentress County, Tennessee, confined at Salisbury, N. C., March 1863; admitted to Hospital 21, Richmond Va., March 17, 1865 and died March 24, 1865 of Diarrhea, Ch. Another notation in the same record shows: George Bady (?), citizen captured at Fentress Co. Tenn. April 1, 1862, confined in Richmond Va. March 15, 1865 and died March 24, 1865. In an affidavit dated April 9, 1889, Zilpha states: "affiant received a letter from her said husband when he was at said place (Salsbury, North Carolina) and have never heard of him since. The letter is dated in 1863 affiant has no doubt of his death." She also states that one of her children has died: "Armilda Beaty who was born on the 20th January 1859 and died on the 13th Nov. 1876." R. A. Winningham makes the following statement under oath: "during the late war he was a soldier in the Federal Army and was a member of Company B Second Tenn. ?? Infantry commanded by James Carter. That he was captured during the war and taken Saulsbury, North Carolina that George W. Beaty applicant's husband had been captured also by the Confederates and was confined in the same prison with affiant. Affiant and others escaped from the prison and left said Beaty and others in the prison. Affiant further states that said Beaty was in bad health at the time he escaped and could have got out of prison at the same time affiant did if he could have walked but he was sick and barefooted and could not have possibly left when affiant did. Affiant had been with said Beaty in prison for about one year and knows all about his condition at the time he made his escape. Affiant heard that he either died or was killed trying to make his escape at any rate affiant has no doubt but what he is dead." Zilpha filed an appeal to the Secretary of the Interior on September 18, 1891 stating the following reason for an appeal: "I think there must be a mistake or oversight in the record in the War Department somewhere. In the first place I received pay as the widow of George Beaty. When the Beaty Company was paid for their military service by act of Congress. In the second place 2nd Lieut. C. Beaty a member of said Beaty's Scouts has a copy of the original roll of the Beaty Company said copy of said roll being in the handwriting of Lieut. Clap of the U. S. Army, sent here to investigate the Beaty Company or the affairs of the same. My late husband's name is on said copy of said roll and opposite his name these words "Captured by the Rebels in March 1862." Being said George Beaty, deceased, lawful wife and he being captured and imprisoned by the rebels and died and did not return to me. I therefore ask that my said claim (line cut off)." Zilpha's claim was again denied on the ground that her husband was not in the service of the United States. In January of 1893 Zilpha Beaty, aged 57 and a resident of Fentress county, Tennessee makes the following declaration: "I am the widow of George Beaty who was a member of Captain David Beaty's Co. of Independent Scouts Tenn. Vols. In March 1862 my said husband was captured by the Rebels; and carried away from this country. I was informed that he was dead, which report I believed to be true as he never returned home. Consequently I filed claim No. 200,371 for pension as widow of said George Beaty. Said claim has been disallowed on the ground that said George Beaty's name did not appear on the roll of the Beaty Company in the War Department. I can prove conclusively by members of said Company that said George Beaty was a member of said Co. Application is hereby made to have said George Beaty recognized as a member of said Company. Said Co. was by act of Congress enrolled in January 1862 and discharged 1st June 1865." In an Affidavit dated 1893 C. Beaty states: "He is personally acquainted with Zilpha Beaty, widow of George Beaty. That he C. Beaty was 2nd Lieut. in Beaty's Independent Scouts Tenn. Vols. That he was personally acquainted with George Beaty mentioned in the above cited claim. That said George Beaty was a Private in said Company, done duty in said Company and was subject to the orders of Capt. David Beaty. That said George Beaty was captured by the Rebels in Fentress County Tenn. in March 1862 and was carried away from the County by them and never returned any more." William Tipton, Orderly Sergeant in Capt. Beaty's Company gives a similar account of George Beaty's capture. Pension is never allowed on Zilpha's claim. 1870 District #1 Fentress County, Tennessee p531 Zilpha Beaty 34 TN Mary Beaty 16 TN James Beaty 13 TN Margret Beaty 11 TN Mar Wallas 64 servant Zilpha Wallas 15 1880 District 1, Fentress County, Tennessee p 508D James Beaty, Jr. 23 TN Zilpha Beaty 45 mother TN Mary Mullenax 25 sister TN Sarah Mullenax 8 niece TN Laurel Baty, L252

Philip M. Beatie, Company "B" & D 1st KY Cavalry (certificate # 1036180); Widow Almira Beatie (application # 720, 121); widow Elizabeth Beatie (application # 556,158). [This is a very long and complicated file. I did not copy all of it.] On May 7, 1900 Almira Beatie, aged 35 and a resident of New Albany, Floyd County, Indiana filed a widow's claim for pension. She states that she is the widow of Philip M. Beatie who enlisted on March 1, 1863 in Company "B" 1st Kentucky Cavalry in the late war of the Rebellion and who died April 22, 1900. She was married to Philip M. Beatie on the 20th day of February 1892 in Jeffersonville, Indiana; her name before marriage was Almira Chandler. She has one child under the age of 16: Lillie born June 16, 1887. She states that "soldier had an application on file at date of death #508622 under act of June 27, 1890." A copy of her marriage license is in the file. A copy of the marriage Bond for Philip M. Batey to Mary F. Duggins is in this file. It was issued at Danville, Boyd County, Kentucky on December 21, 1867. The certificate of the officiating minister does not appear in the record. Almira Beatie makes the following statement, June 27, 1890: "That she is the widow of Philip M. Beatie the above named soldier and in reply to paragraph 2 of department call which is herewith witnessed she states ?? that she is unable to furnish a verified copy of the public or church record of the marriage of soldier to his first wife as the record appears to be incomplete and she is unable to find any person who was present at the marriage, neither does she know of the whereabouts of the officiating officer who solemnized said marriage and the only testimony she can give in lieu of said evidence is the testimony of Lucy Veaticle (?) who was well acquainted with said first wife and viewed her remains after death and assisted in preparing her body for burial which testimony shows that said first wife of soldier died on the 6th day of July 1890 which was prior to his marriage to Almira Beatie, the above named claimant. She also submits the sworn testimony of W. G. Dunlap the undertaker who buried the remains of said first wife of soldier showing that she was buried on the 7th day July 1890 (which was the next day after her death). Claimant was married to soldier on the 20th day of February 1892 as shown by certified copy of record which is forwarded in this case herewith." On Oct. 24, 1918 Elizabeth Baty of Whetstone P. O., Cumberland County, Kentucky files a declaration for widow's pension. She states that she is the widow of Philip M. Baty who enlisted in the 1st Kentucky Cavalry and who died around 1900 in Indiana. She states that she married Philip Baty on Aug. 2, 1865 at Livingston, Overton County, Tennessee and that her name before marriage was Elizabeth Smith. (There is an earlier filing of a claim which I did not copy) Enoch C. Smith of Cumberland County, Kentucky states that he has been acquainted with affiant Elizabeth Beaty all of her life and that she is 79 years old. He states that he knows "of his own personal knowledge that the said Elizabeth Beaty was married to the said Philip M. Beaty, affiant also states that he was present and saw the clerk issue the marriage license and saw the Magistrate perform the marriage ceremony at Livingston, Overton County Tenn. about the year 1864 and that they lived together as husband and wife during a part of the civil war, affiant further states that the said Philip M. Beaty after living with the said Elizabeth Beaty for about two years abandoned her and that she has not seen (line cut off) this claim and that he is a brother of Elizabeth Beaty but that fact would not and does not influence him in the least in making this statement." Wid. Orig. 556158 Elizabeth Beatie now Parish, alleged widow Philip M. Beatie, D & B 1 KY V. Cav. P. O. Whet Stone, Cumberland Co., Ky. Office of Special Examiner of Pensions Lexington, Ky. June 23rd, 1909 Sir: I have the honor to return the papers in the above cited claim and to submit my report thereon. Soldier was not pensioned during life, but Pension under Act of June 27, 1890 was paid his alleged widow, Almira Beatie, New Albany, Indiana, based on the fact of inability to earn support by soldier from Dec. 28, 1899 to April 22, 1900. Claim of this alleged widow was rejected, not having married soldier till after passage, Act June 27, '90. Almira Beatie is now dead. Claimant Elizabeth Beatie filed claim in 1892 but effort was not then made to determine fact that soldier was husband of Claimant, and claim was abandoned till Dec. 18, 1908. Claim was referred to S. E. Division to determine identity of husband of this Claimant with Soldier, Marriage &c. Came to me, notice waived with instructions to see Abe L. McAnelly, comrade of Frankfort, Ky., to do my best to get some clue that will enable the Bureau to get at the facts. I at once noticed that fact that Jas. Nat Williams is of List of Comrades with Claim, and as he is said to be a witness to Marriage, and his whereabouts not known to Claimant, and his address wanted, it is strange List was not read to Claimant and Address of Jim Nat Williams noted. Bailey P. Smith, of list is son of Squire Hardy Smith, said to have been the man who performed the marriage ceremony in Tenn., and the Claimant and her brothers beyond doubt knew Bailey P., or "Peyton Smith." Comrade McAnelly is I think a straight honest man, and rate him good for truth in this matter in hand. He knew these girls, Henrietta and Lizzie Smith, was taken to see them by Philip M. Beatie, and he says the Company was at one time placed to guard property of Squire Hardy Smith, in Overton Co., Tenn., that Beatie was with them, that Peyton was son of Squire Smith and there were three daughters, two about grown and one little girl. He says after the return from this detail, about Summer of 1865 the soldier Beatie was said to have run off to Tenn. and married Lizzie Smith. He recalled this well and he identified the picture as P. M. Beatie, his comrade. He knew Beatie after the war, knew of his marriage to Mary Duggins or Dugan and of her death, and he was told by soldier of marrying again in New Albany, Ind. He says he spoke to Beatie after the war about Lizzie, asked if he did not marry her and have baby by her, and Beatie laughed but evaded question in such a way, that he accounted it an admission, and he had really known it before, at least of report and admissions at time. McAnelly names those of list that he thinks can tell all about it. He says this reported marriage which undoubtedly took place as stated by Elizabeth Parish, Claimant was after May 1865, and her original statement of Marriage and birth of baby was undoubtedly correct. She believed Beatie was from Georgia, but truth is he was from Georgia by having been in service in 1st Ky., Cav., there and this before May 1865. He came from Lincoln Co., Ky. And probably from Millegeville, Ky. There seems little question that Beatie married this Claimant, and he had no idea of acknowledging her after discharge from service, but I am rather under impression that she knew more of him after the war than she admitted to Special Examiner... After taking deposition of McAnelly, in an extended talk on War times, he told me that Beatie was a great man after women, that one was never with him any length of time that he did not go off on this subject, was "daffy on it he expressed it." He told me that there was a rumor in Service, long before their Company went to Burksville Cumberland Co., Ky., that Beatie was married. He could not give me enough data or had not enough belief in report to testify to it, but this is what he told me. As he believed it was in Hancock Co., Tenn., was not far from Strawberry Plains, at about Blains Cross Roads, that Beatie got in with a loose woman, and it was reported they married, but the Company was only there a few days, and he does not think there was anything in this, but told me the talk so Bureau could have his best aid in proper adjudication of claim of Lizzie Parrish. I find that Str awberry Plains is in Jefferson Co., and Blaine in Grainger Co., both near Hancock Co., Tenn., so I would here suggest that after those above suggested shall have been seen, and fully questioned as to Smith marriage, and also this other escapade in eastern Tenn., that claim go to "Hancock, Grainger and Jefferson Co.", Tenn., in for search of marriage records for any Marriage of Philip M. Beatie to any woman, this after Jan. 1863 when Beatie enlisted and before May 1865 when he went to Burksville, Cumberland Co., Ky., where he doubtless married Lizzie Smith. Respectfully submitted, Percy S. Crowe Special Examiner Excerpts from Elizabeth Beatie Parish's deposition (June 3, 1909): "My age is 63 years..When I last saw Mr. Beatie he was not complaining of being injured or wounded in the service. When I saw him last he just said he was going to see his parents & I think he said he was coming back to me. No we didn't have any falling out; he didn't say anything about quitting me. I was always good to him & he would be good to me. I met Allen Dickens in Burkville, Ky. some time in 1865 & he told me Mr. Beatie he thought had died or got killed some where down about Columbia (??) Tenn. but he didn't say where he heard or learned it. That is the only account I ever got of Mr. Beatie after he left me in 1864 or 1865..I have none of Mr. Beatie's letters he wrote me while he was in the army. I did have a small picture of his but it got lost some way..No sir, he didn't say where he was living when he joined the army, but he left the impression on my mind that his parents lived in Georgia. No he didn't say what the given name of his parents were..I was married to Wm H. Parish must have been, now let me see, well say five or six years after the civil war wound up. Mr. Parish died about 20 years ago at my home and was buried near Whet Stone in the Old Orchard grave yard. You can see his grave -there is an old picket fence around his grave & a ?? ??? rock slab at breast of grave giving date of his death if you can make out the figures. You go right by the grave yard in going back to Burksville from here. Mr. Parish is said to have had a living wife when I married him near Henderson, Ky. but I didn't know it. Thomas Parish a son from Parish by his first wife came to see after his father died & he told me his father's first wife was then living, that neither had ever been divorced. I know Parish told me his mother took up with a man by the name of Monehan & that his father was left with the children-Thomas, William, Richard & there was a girl named Fannie. I never saw any of Mr. Parish children by the first wife except Thomas. He went from here to Indianapolis. I think Mr. Parish's first wife was Elizabeth Thrush before her marriage to Mr. Parish. I had five sons born to me by my second husband, all living -Geo B., Joseph, Dallas, ??, and John P. I only had one daughter by Philip M. Beatie, Joann. She was born about 10 or 11 months after my marriage to Mr. Beatie. She married Chas. Daniels & don't live far from me..I was born & reared within 3 miles of this place. I have never lived outside of Cumberland Co., Ky. My parents Britten & Edna Smith have been dead for many years. I had four brothers but two of them are dead. Enoch C. and Wm. M. live near me. I had seven sisters only one living, Sallie. She married a Nelson and now lives in Georges Creek Texas." [There is a great deal more in this Deposition-the story of their Courtship and marriage etc. There is quite a lot of information in Depositions by other members of Philip Beatie's unit and deposition of Elizabeth's brothers which I will not transcribe.] Excerpt from Deposition of Mrs. Hugh Coomer: "My father has two brothers living one Esquire Beaty lives in New Albany, Indiana; he knew all about my father & can tell you more about my father than anyone else. David Beaty lives at Muncie, Indiana. David is younger than Esquire Beaty. Yes the picture I show you is that of my father. He had the picture taken some years ago & it resembles my father very much as far back as I can remember. You can have the picture but please have it returned." [The picture was not in the file.] Deposition from Squire Beaty (May 25, 1909): His age is 61 years: P. O. New Albany, Indiana. I am a contractor. I was born at Somerset Pulaski Co. Ky. My parents (now dead) were William & Catherine Beaty some time spelled Beatie-my parents came from Lee Co., Va. to Kentucky years ago. There were eight of us children in all. Mary J., the oldest, is dead. Then come Philip M. & I was the third child. Philip M. & I were raised together up to the time he went off in the army some time in 1861, I think. He was about 18 years of age. Philip M. went off in Col. Woolford's regiment in Co. "D" first & then after Co. B of the first Ky. Cav. I think McClain was his Capt. & his Lieut was Cal Somme (??) Philip came home three times while he was in the army twice on furlough but I can't remember the time. When Philip enlisted we then lived on the Standford Pike about 5 miles from Danville, Ky. Philip M. came home after being mustered out of service we then lived at Shelby Co., Ky four miles from Danville. My father & Philip were teamsters for some time hauling goods & lumber or the like from Danville to Shelby City, Ky. until Philip got married to Mary Duggins at Danville & then moved to Danville & lived there till his wife died some time in 1890 & then he came to this place, New Albany, Indiana & drove a street car for some time & worked for me part of the time. Philip died on 22 day of April 1990. Philip was married the second time to Almira Chandler & she died in about 2 years after Philip died. Philip had six children by his first wife & none by the second wife. No sir, I never heard of my brother Philip M. being married to any one prior to time he married Mary Duggins.he usually told me about his secrets." Elizabeth Beatie Parish was denied a pension. There is a long document in the file reviewing the marriage laws of Kentucky and Indiana concluding "The claimant Almira is recognized by the Bureau as soldiers widow for pensionable purposes, which fact precludes the recognition of any other woman in that statue." 1860, Burksville, Cumberland Co., KY p625 Britton Smith 62 VA Edieth M.

I am searching for L-9 Andrew Beatty. We know from a Bible record he was born 12 Feb. 1796 to Sarah Wilson Whaley and George Beatty. From a deed we know in 1826 he was living in Morgan co., KY. Morgan co., KY was formed in 1822 from Floyd and Bath. An Andrew Beatty married 8 April 1821 in Floyd co., KY to Jane Maddox. In tracking this Andrew I notice he is the correct age to be the son of George. He possibly has a daughter Syrena and a son George. L-9 Andrew would have a half-sister Cyrene who married Rodney W.

George W. Batey (alias), George W. Beaty, Company "C" 43rd Indiana Infantry, Civil War; widow Elizabeth Clements (certificate # 836,203); minors Oliver P. Beaty et al (application # 490,338) [This was a long file and I did not copy all of it.] On December 19, 1890 Oliver P. Beaty (aged 22) and George W. Beaty (aged 20), residents of Ellsworth, Dubois County, Indiana filed a claim for Pension for minors under the age of sixteen. They state that they are the legitimate children of George W. Beaty who enlisted Nov. 13, 1864 in Company "C" 43rd Regiment of Indiana Volunteers in the war of the Rebellion and who died at "his house in Dubois Co. Ind. Dec. 22, 1869 of disease of lung result of measles contracted at Indianapolis, Indiana about 15 day Fed. 1865 (was at Camp Burnsides). George left surviving a widow, Elizabeth Beaty (maiden name Cox), who remarried to James Clements March 4, 1875. Oliver P. Beaty was born Jan. 12, 1868 and Geo. W. Beaty was born Mar. 24, 1870. Sarah J. Ellis and Samuel P. Dillard witness the signatures of George and Oliver Beaty. A copy of the marriage license of George W. Baty to Elizabeth Cox is in this file. It shows that they were married on January 6, 1867 in Orange County, Indiana. A copy of the marriage license of Elizabeth Beaty to James Clements shows that they were married in Dubois County, Indiana on March 4, 1875. Mary E. Landreth, aged 44 and a resident of Columbia Township, Dubois County, states in 1891 "I was not present at the birth of Oliver P. Beaty but was there the next day after his birth and he was born on the twelfth day of January 1868. I know these facts from the best of my recollection and the Family record as kept in the Bible. I remember that when my brother came home he was not able to work on the farm like he did while he was at home before he enlisted." A Special Examiner was appointed to determine whether the cause of George W. Beaty's death was Service related. The following is a list of people who were deposed in the examination (39 pages in length): Claimant (Elizabeth Clements), Levi K. Ellis, Eleazor Fentress, Mary Landreth, Reuben Cox, Lafayette Ellis, Sarah J. Ellis, James Clements, Wm. Kendall, David C. Lane, Mary A. Ellis, Harry Thompson, Alfred Painter, James M. Ellis, David Beaty, John Hays, Wm A. Line, M. D. The examiner states "neither one of the minors was seen by me as they live near Mount Carmel, Wabash Co., Ill." Some excerpts: (July 22, 1895) Elizabeth Clements, aged 46 a resident of Jasper, Dubois County, Indiana states "It was my belief that he died of lung trouble from the fact that he had a cough and looked bad when he came out of the army and he continued to cough all the time until his death.I knew him for at least 10 years before he went into the service, living about 3 miles from him and I married him soon after he came home from the army. I was married to decd soldier Jan. 6, 1867 at my father's house near Ellsworth, Ind. by Christopher Cox. There is a record in the Court House of my marriage to the soldier; Reuben Cox and his wife of Eton, Orange Co. Ind. were present at our marriage. My maiden name was Elizabeth Cox..Soldier left two children under 16 years of age at his death viz: Oliver Perry Beaty, born Jan. 12, 1868; George Washington Beaty, born Mar. 24, 1870. Both of the children named above are still living and they were under my care and custody until after they were 16. In fact I had the care of them until they were married..The only record I have of the children's births is a Bible record which was written down soon after the birth of each child by my sister-in-law Mary Beaty. Before going into the army soldier was to all appearances a stout hearty young man. He never complained of lung trouble, nor did he have any cough. My reasons for knowing are that I met him often at public gatherings, such as Sunday School, Church, Singing School and picnics, and he always acted & seemed to be rugged & stout. His father (soldier's) died of pneumonia, and his mother of lung trouble. Yes his father had trouble with his lungs or rather he had throat trouble.I know soldier always claimed that his lung trouble originated in the service from a bad spell of the measles...In a few weeks after his discharge in 1865 soldier commenced to wait upon me and I saw him every week or so, always every 2 weeks, until we were married, lived about 2 or 3 miles from him." (July 23, 1895) Lafayette Ellis, aged 45 of Ellsworth, Dubois County states: "I knew Geo. W. Beaty as long back as I knew anyone outside my home folks. I went to school with him.Soldier always spelled his name Beaty not Batey. All his relatives spell their name Beaty." (July 22, 1895) W. W. Kendall aged 56 of Jasper, Dubois County, Indiana states "I first became acquainted with claimants deceased husband Geo. W. Beaty in 1860, he at that time being a pupil of mine in a public school I was teaching. I used to hunt, play &c with him and he was a stout hearty man at that time." (July 24, 1895) Mary A. Ellis, aged 51 and a resident of Ellsworth, Dubois County, Indiana, states "Geo. W. Beaty, deceased soldier, and I were raised together. We were brother's children." (July 24, 1895) David Beaty, aged 71, a resident of Ellsworth, Dubois County, Indiana states "I knew deceased soldier Geo W. Beaty from his infancy up to his death and always lived within less than 2 miles of him.His mother said that he died of typhoid fever. That is what I have always thought he died of. His mother & a brother died of pneumonia sometime after the soldier's death..I know that she nor the brother did not die for a long time after the soldier did. It must have been at least a year after the soldier's death.deceased soldier was a nephew of mine. The correct way to spell soldier's name is Beaty not Batey." (July 25, 1895) Mary E. Landreth, aged 49 and residing 4 miles N. E. of Ellsworth, Dubois County, Indiana states: "I was a sister of Geo W. Beaty dec'd & knew him all my life while he lived. I know that the deceased soldier had the measles at home in May of 1861. We all had them at that time. I know soldier did not have the measles bad nor did any bad results follow them. He had recovered entirely when he enlisted and was a stout hearty man at that time. He came right home when he was discharged and was not able to do any work at all that summer. He had the Chr. Diarrhea and it continued to trouble him as long as he lived. His general health was bad and he had a dry hacking cough, but did not raise any matter or blood. Would cough more when he was hungry. He worked along farmed some, but taught school much of the time after he came out of the service. In the fall of 1869, soldier's sister-in-law had the typhoid fever. Soldier went and nursed his father-in-law until he died. Then he (soldier) came home & got down himself - soldier died December 22, 1869, his mother died the 12th of January 1870, and his brother died the 19 of Feb. 1870. All of them had the same disease and the Dr. (Polson) and Wellman called it typhoid fever. I wish to say that Dr. Polson alone treated the soldier and Dr. Wellman and Dr. Line, Dr. Dillard and Dr. Courtney all came & counseled about my mother & brother. Wellman called it the typhoid pneumonia, but Dr. Yannell treated me after the others had died and he called the disease putrid or typhus fever. Their tongues would turn black and crack open and it was hard to stay in the room where they were..I know his condition for I was with him all the time he was sick & helped my father & mother take care of him. I give the dates from memory & know they are correct for they are fresh in my mind as though it all happened yesterday. Every one of our family was down that fall & winter and I will always remember the circumstances..Catherine Stephens, my sister, whose P. O. address is Green Forest, Carroll Co., Ark, would know all about us having the measles in 1861 and soldier's sickness." (9-5-1895) Willis Cox of Centreville, Orange County, Indiana states "I was born in 1841. The claimant Elizabeth Clements is my sister. Her former husband was George W. Beaty. He was raised close to here...The doctor said George W. Beaty died of typhoid fever.He had typhoid fever just the same as my father and his mother had, and also one of his brothers.. They all died along in the same fall - not long apart. My father died first." (9-5-1895) Jonathan Flick, aged 84 of Centreville, Orange County, Indiana states "The claimants father and I were second cousins..I knew Baty from boyhood..His mother and father and two of the family one brother and one sister died about the same time of typhoid fever." The claim for pension was rejected. Elizabeth Clements reapplied in August 1910 stating that James Clements died Oct. 3, 1907. This claim was again rejected "under the act of April 19, 1908, she having remarried prior to the passage of said act." Elizabeth reapplied in January of 1917 at age 68, still a resident of Dubois County, Indiana. This time her application was accepted under "act of Sept. 8, 1916." She was dropped from the pension rolls due to her death April 7, 1934. She was last paid $36 per month to March 31, 1934. There is a letter from Oliver Beatty in the file: 216 Walnut St. French Lick, Ind March 6, 1933 Pension Bureau Administration Bldg Washington, D. C. Gentlemen I am informed that there is a law now granting widow of soldiers who served in the Civil War, a death benefit of $100, even though the pensioner is still living. I should like very much to know if this is true and if so what procedure is there to obtain same.

On May 19, 1879 Henry P. Beatty of near Caneyville in Grayson Co., KY filed an Original Declaration for a pension. He entered the service on October 20, 1861 as a Wagoner in Company A of the 27th Regiment of KY Volunteer Infantry commanded by Captain W. W. Brady and was discharged at Louisville, KY on March 27, 1865 at the expiration of his term of service. He was 52 years old, 5 feet 10 inches tall with a fair complexion, dark hair and blue eyes. While in the service at Elizabethtown, KY in December 1861 he contracted measles caused by exposure, which further exposure resulted in disease of the lungs at Grayson Springs, KY in the spring of 1862. At Hamburg, TN in May 1862 he was ruptured in his right side due to heavy lifting. At Mt Sterling, KY in February 1864 he accidentally, while loading a wagon, bruised his right thumb disabling it. He was treated in the post hospital at Elizabethtown, KY. He was never employed by the military after discharge in 1865. He has lived in Grayson Co., KY since the war and his primary occupation is as a farmer. Prior to his service he was in good health and is since disabled. A pension was granted and paid up to the time of Henry's death on August 20, 1893.. The documents supporting this pension application total around 75 pages. If anyone wants to see 'the rest of the story', let me know. Curt Beatty L-112
