He states that their father, Nicholas Beaty, was a Sergeant in Company “G”, 5th Regiment of East Tennessee Infantry in the Civil War.

Beaty was born Nov. 25, 1857; John F. Beaty was born April 26, 1861 and Nicholas W. Beaty was born Dec. 19, 1864. The mother of the children, Sarah E. Gant was married to Nicholas Beaty on Oct. 30, 1856 in Bradley County, Tennessee. She has since remarried. A certified copied of a Bible record filed in Greene County, Missouri in Feb. 1877 states: “Mary Adline Baty was borned November the 25, 1857 John Franklin Baty was borned Aprile(sic) the 26 1861 Nicholas Washington Baty was borned December the 17 1864 This is to certify that the above is a true and correct copy of the record of the births of Mary Adline Baty, John Franklin Baty and Nicholas Washington Baty as found in family record book of Nicholas Baty Dec’d.

That he has now present a record of their births, kept by the deponent in his own family Bible, the date & title page of which is missing.” “That it appears to be an old Family Bible –the title page in first of the book is missing, but the title page to the New Testament therein bears date 1853. In another document dated Sept. 12, 1877, James Beaty states “Sarah E. Beaty has since the death of her husband Nicholas B.

They moved here in 1821, where our subject lived on a farm with his father until he was twenty-one years old, when he married Louisa Morrow, who was born Feruary 5, 1833. Their marriage occurred January 2, 1851, and was productive of six children-Marshall, Luther, Nettie (deceased), Ella, Noah and Edith. While on the farm, he engaged extensively in agricultural pursuits and stock-raising, and in this way made a comfortable start in life. He remained on the farm until 1859, when he moved to Owensburg, and engaged in the dry goods business, in which he continued until 1861, when at the call for three years' troops to serve in the war; he raised a company (Company H, Thirty-first Indiana Volunteer Infantry), of which he was elected Captain, and proceeded to Terre Haute, where he went into camp for a short time. Then going to the front, our subject was engaged in the first fight at Fort Donelson, succeeded by the battle of Pittsburg Landing and Corinth. At the last place he was wounded, after which he resigned his position, resignation taking place in November, 1862, first enduring the hardships of a march across Tennessee and Kentucky. After returning from the war, he again engaged in farming, and also in the dry goods business in Owensburg. In this he continued about three years; then moved to his farm, where he remained seven years; then again came to town and engaged in the hardware business. Mr. Beaty is well surrounded with the comforts of life, and besides a neat residence on the main street of the town, he owns other valuable property. He owns 1,000 acres of good land, and has been identified with the growth of the town since reaching manhood. He is a member of the Republican party, has served his township as Trustee, and he and wife are connected with the Christian Church. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Obituary of Captain John BEATY [1830IN–1904IN]. Posted by Robert L. Jackson <rljfm@on-linecorp.com> on Sun, 18 Apr 1999 Surname: BEATY, HARDING, MORROW, SHORT THE BLOOMFIELD NEWS, VOL. XXVIII., NO. 35, Page 1, Column 2, Bloomfield, Greene County, Indiana, Friday, July 22, 1904, "OBITUARY-Beaty." The BEATY family is one of the oldest families in Greene and Lawrence counties. The grandfather of Capt. BEATY was Andrew BEATY, born in Ireland in 1747; married and lived in Scotland until shortly before the American Revolution when he and his wife and two or three children removed to America. He was a soldier in that war and was at Yorktown at the surrender of Cornwallis. After the war was over he emigrated to Kentucky where he resided until about the time Indiana was admitted into the union as a state, when he removed with his family to this new state. He died in 1819; his wife (Nancy) died in 1838. Their son, James, (father of the subject of this Sketch) having grown up and married Margaret HARDING in Kentucky also settled on a tract of land east of Indian creek, in Lawrence county, where he added to it from time to time until he had several hundred acres—here John (the subject of this sketch) was born January 18, 1830; died July 18, 1904; aged 71 years 5 months and 26 days. His early life was the life of all the pioneer families of Indiana–a struggle to subdue the forests, to help feed and clothe the family, to get the best education possible under adverse circumstances—John improved his opportunities and became a school teacher himself when not engaged in farm work. He united with the Christian Church at White Oak, and was always a faithful member, prompt in attendance at all the services of the church both there and after its removal to Owensburg. He was married to Louisa MORROW January 2, 1851,to whom were born six children–Marshal, Luther, Isle, Ella, Nora, and Edith. At his country's call in 1861 he raised a company of his neighbors and was elected captain and on Sunday the 25th day of August, 1861, they left Owensburg for the front, leaving wife and children, home and friends to share with his comrades the fortunes and misfortunes, the hardships and privations of a soldier's life. He was in command of COMPANY H, 31ST REGIMENT INDIANA VOLUNTEERS at Ft. Donelson and also at Shiloh, where he received two wounds, on account of which he resigned November 16, 1862 He, with his company and regiment, was in the thickest of the fight at Shiloh at that part of the field called the "Hornets Nest," and he, as one of the captains, was mentioned in Gen. CRAFT's official report for noble conduct. After Capt. BEATY's return from the army he engaged in mercantile pursuits for awhile, but owning a good farm he never lost his love for farming and most of his life since the war was devoted to farming and stock raising. He was quiet, yet forceful, man, a success in all his undertakings, a kind husband and indulgent father, a good citizen and a useful and efficient member of his church–being for many years a deacon in the church, but during the last fifteen or twenty years its senior elder. Such men are all too scarce. He will be missed in his community. These veterans are swiftly passing—only a few more remain. Amongst a large concourse of his neighbors who attended the funeral only one of his army comrades was able to be present. The services were conducted by Elder Quincy SHORT, of Springville. Interment at the Owensburg cemetery July 15, 1904. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- More About JOHN BEATTY: Burial: Owensburg Cemetery, Greene Co., IN Notes for LOUISA MORROW: Obituary of Louisa (MORROW) BEATY [1833IN-1905IN]. Posted by Robert L.

BEATY DEAD. An Estimable Woman Passes Away after a Long Illness." Louisa BEATY, daughter of Adam and Hannah (BOONE) MORROW, was born near Linton, Ind., February 5, 1833, died at Owensburg, Ind., May 19, 1905. She was married to Capt. John BEATY January 2, 1851, in Martin County, Indiana by Elder John W. FERGUSON of the Christian church, of which church she was a member-long before her marriage. Her husband died July 13, 1904, since which time she and her grandson, Louis, have been keeping house at the old homestead. By her marriage to Capt. BEATY, she had six children—four of whom are yet living—Dr. Marshall BEATY, of Cincinnati, Ohio; Mrs. Ella WHITTED, of Santa Ana, Cal.; Mrs. Nora SENTNEY, of Hutchinson, Kas, and Mrs. Edith HUFF, of Santa Ana, Cal. Luther died on Feb 26, 1884; Nettie was burned to death while a small girl. Dr. BEATY was the only child present at his mother’s death. Mrs. BEATY had three living sisters, Elizabeth DYE, Nancy GASTINEAU and Joyce SIMS. Nancy & Joyce were at the funeral; Nancy having also been for several week at the beside of the deceased administering to her wants and serving to make her last days as comfortable as possible. Elder Quincy SHORT of Springville, a lifelong friend of the family, preached the funeral sermons for both the husband and wife, whose bodies now sleep in the Owensburg Cemetery and whose spirits have entered into their reward. This is a brief outline of the history of the family, covering more than half a century. It is the same of every family—it is nature’s ways—the bud, the blossom, the fruit, the harvest. We are accustomed to the expression that death is pathetic; but after all is there not more true paths in life than in death? Can you not recount in the life of the departed the joyous youth, the happy home building, the rearing of a family, the association of friends, the helpfulness to others, the sunshine of life? But with it all came life’s sacrifices, the husband at his country’s call leaves home and wife and family the anxious hours, the sleepless nights, the heroism of the woman at home. Is not this pathetic? The children become men and women and do as father and mother did before them, they go out from the old parental roof free; husband and wife now left just as they began, two in the family, but life has not now the roseate hue it once had, there is a void that can never be filled, one is called "up yonder." Patient yet uncomplaining she bides her time, her fortitude never fills her. She has the consciousness of a well-spent life. She knows that to him that overcometh there shall be a crown. Her life should be to all of us an example of courage of devotion to duty. Death would indeed be pathetic did we not hope for a reunion inseparable, no clouds, no shadows, all joyous and bright forever more.

The day was excessively cold, yet the Grand Army in a body—the old veterans—turned out to pay their last tribute of respect to a fallen comrade, a departed patriot, a gallant soldier. The sons of veterans also turned out in a body and marched to the step of funeral notes as the body was carried to its last earthly resting place. Major HARDY was born on Feb. 6, 1820 at Glasgow, in the State of Kentucky. At the age of ten years he moved with his parents to Lawrence county, Indiana where he lived until 1868, except for a short time when he lived at Point Commerce, Greene County. On the 6th day of August 1862, he enlisted in COMPANY G, FOURTH INDIANA CALVARY, and was appointed commissary sergeant, which position he filled until the 6th day of April 1864, when he was promoted to the position of second lieutenant of COMPANY A, FIFTEENTH REGIMENT UNITED STATES COLORED INFANTY. He was severely wounded by a gunshot wound in the right shoulder and neck at, or near, Nashville, Tenn., from which he suffered during his life. He was honorably discharged on the 7th day of April 1866, and there was endorsed on his discharge these additional words: "Lieutenant HARDY is honest and of great steady habits." On being discharged from the army he returned to Bedford and entered into business at that place. In 1867 ex Vice-President COLFAX, in a tour of lecturing, deliver a lecture at Bedford. The citizens of Bedford, desiring to honor the distinguished Vice-President, appointed a committee to meet him at Bloomington to escort him to their town. Major HARDY was appointed chairman of the committee, and discharged the duty with commendable ability. Some of the citizens of Bloomfield attended the Bedford meeting and were treated with marked cordiality by Major HARDY and the committee. The Major was invited to visit Bloomfield and accepted the invitation. On his visit to Bloomfield he met Mrs. John I. MILAM, one of Bloomfield’s most estimable ladies and on the 11th day of July, 1868 they were joined together as husband and wife, since which time they have resided in our town. At the age of twenty-one, Major HARDY joined the M. E. church and after his marriage joined the C. P. church, to which his wife belonged. Thus in Christian fellowship and love they journeyed through life. One child was born to them—a lovely child—Jennie. Jennie grew to be a lovely woman and was called to the other shore in her early married life. The last request made by the Major was to be laid beside the lovely departed daughter. Mrs. HARDY survives her husband. He was a loving and affectionate husband and father. His stepdaughter, Nettie MILAM, now Mrs. Dr. BEATY, at the time of the marriage of her mother, was a child. She loved her stepfather as a child usually loves the real father. Although she was in feeble health, she and her husband, Dr. BEATY, came from Cincinnati, O., to pay the last respect to one whose conduct had always been towards them as an affectionate father. Thus one by one the old soldiers answer the final roll cal; thus day by day the "silver chords are broken. E. H. C. C. 5. ii. LUTHER BEATTY, b.

Mrs. D. F. Wade." [Transcribed 19 Nov 2000 from Bloomfield-Eastern Greene County Public Library’s IHS Microfilm Records.] Mrs. D. F. WADE died at her home in Switz City, Indiana, at 9:30 p.m. January 11th 1906, after a brief attack of paralysis that lasted about thirty-six hours. She had been in poor health for more than a year, but had improved so much in the last two months that her death came as a sudden shock to her family and friends. Roena BEATY WADE was a daughter of James BEATY, born in Lawrence County, Indiana, near Springville, June 15, 1848; died January 11, 1908; aged 57 years 6 months and 26 days. She was united in marriage to D. F. WADE, February 3, 1867, and removed to Missouri the same year, afterwards locating permanently in Kansas. In 1894 she removed with her family to Switz City, Indiana, where she resided until her death. In her early girlhood she embraced Christianity and was a faithful consistent follower of Christ until her death, being at that time a member of the Baptist church of her hometown. Unto her union with D. F. WADE were born four sons and four daughters, all of whom survive her, with her husband, except one daughter. Of her father’s family two brothers survive her. She was held in high esteem by all who knew her and her memory will always be revered by those who knew her best. The funeral was held Saturday afternoon at two o’clock conducted by the Rev. William BAKER, of Lyons. More About ROENA BEATTY: Aged: 57 ys. 6 ms. 26 ds. Notes for D. FRANKLIN WADE, M.D.: Obituary of Doctor Franklin WADE [1840IN—1918KS] Posted by Robert L.

WADE." [Transcribed from Bloomfield-Eastern Greene County Public Library’s IHS Microfilm Records.] D. F. WADE, son of Henry and Nancy WADE, was born near Owensburg, Indiana, September 19, 1840, and died at the home of his son, Frank C. WADE, in Fredonia, Kansas, May 25th, 1918, aged seventy-seven years, eight months and six days. Doctor Franklin WADE grew to manhood in Greene County, Indiana, where he obtained such education as the public schools of his day provided. He was united in marriage February 3, 1867 to Roena BEATY, whose home was near Springville, Indiana. To this union eight children were born. Those surviving are W. L. WADE, Switz City, Indiana; Mrs. Cora HUDSON, Neodesha, Kansas; Mrs. Bertha HOLMES, Yates Center, Kansas; Frank C. WADE, Fredonia, Kansas; Mrs. Stella G. EVANS, West Terre Haute, Indiana; Noble R. wade, San Pedro, California, serving in the U. S. Navy; and twelve grandchildren. Soon after his marriage, he moved to Johnson County, Missouri, and in the spring of 1868 he moved to Wilson County, Kansas, where he settled on a claim near Neodesha. He taught school in Neodesha in 1874, afterward pre-empting a claim six miles west of that place, where he lived a number of years, undergoing all the hardships of the early pioneer. In 1894 he removed with his family to Switz City, Indiana, and lived there until the death of his wife in 1906, when he returned to Kansas, making his home with his children living there. His life was one of unselfish devotion to those he loved, and to the high ideals for which he stood. He was a life-long Mason, being a charter member of the Masonic lodge at Neodesha, Kansas. His body was brought to Switz City, Indiana, by his children, May 27, 1918, where the Masons of the Switz City Lodge laid it to rest by the side of his beloved wife in the Switz City cemetery. I also have an old post from Ray to the BP-2000 dated Aug 4, 2000, regarding an Andrew Beaty (S.2989) L-2 and his Rev. War Pension file, containing a letter from Frank C. Wade, Atty, Terre Haute, IN dated June 13, 1936. The gist of it is this attorney was looking for an Andrew Beat, and the pension # cited above was the only one found in the of the Veterans Adm. according to their response. It says (all parantheses are mine): ".... The Andrew Beaty of whom I inquired and who is my great grandfather was born in Ireland, Scotch-Irish, came to America in a sail boat before the revolutionary war and located at Cow Pasture Springs, Virginia. After the close of the war he migrated to southern Indian, Monroe County (originally part of Orange Co), which must have been sometime before 1800. He died in 1819, at the age of 72 I think, and is buried about 12 miles west of Bedford (Lawrence Co), Indiana. I also know he had two sons, John Beaty and James Beaty and two or more daughters but I am not informed as to the daughters. If you can find any further record of this Andrew Beaty it will be most highly appreciated...." Ray Beaty responds: "I don't find this Andrew of Indiana in our database. There is a James Baity in the 1830 US Census from Lawrence Co (Bedford's County) Indiana who may be the James mentioned in Frank's letter. The census data shows that James was born 1791-1800 and in his 1830 household was one male under 5, two females 5-10, and one female 20-30." Freddie Spradlin, State Coord. for VA in the USGenWeb project wrote in response to my query about the location of Cow Pasture Springs: "This probably refers to some actual spring near the Cowpasture River, in then Botetort or Augusta County. The river flows into the James River in today's Botetort Co just south of the Bath Co line and flows through Bath Co, from it's headwaters in Highland Co" Children of ROENA BEATTY and D. WADE are: i.

Laurel, good for you! You won't believe this, but since the full moon is approaching again Friday, I am not surprised! I no sooner clicked off an e-mail to a researcher connected with the district library in South Bend, Indiana, where my James Lewis Beatty died, when I clicked open THIS e-mail and saw this list! Did you suspect that these were going to be in a different file? That's amazing and it is great news! I write the researcher back and sent the whole list to the him, telling him to continue looking around South Bend records, because there might be something else on my James. Last week when I received John Beatty's pension file, I didn't look very closely at the St. Joseph County, IN Cem. Inscriptions list, but now that I do, I see names of a lot more non-Beatty names. I have put asterisks on top and underneath of my James. Also, about the tenth name down is Cornelius B. name Beatty, who was also in the 128th Regiment, but in Company H. The name Cornelius is not a common name, and there was a Cornelius Beatty who lived in Fayette Co., Kentucky in 1790. I don't think I saw his name on any of the letters, but I know that James L. Beatty tried to get in touch with some of the other men in his regiment, so they could vouch for the fact that James was in good health now but , most of them had died.

Beatty cousins, One of these days I am going to drive south to the bottom of our state of Michigan, and I want to meet, personally, with my good friend Alice, who is so intrigued with all branches of my family. She explained that, because both sides of her family came from Belgium to this country in the mid-1800s, she finds my family very interesting, since all of my branches have been in this country since the beginning. In her words, it makes her feel successful, because she thinks my ancestors are easier to research and there is no Belgium language barrier. Plus, she thinks my ancestors are easier to find! I tell her that she finds ancestors and that former family historians have tried to find for the last 200 years! If anyone has any advice or tips that I can pass on to Alice, I would love to be able to help her with her family history for a change. She is very thoughtful and adds the source titles, credits, and a link if I want to see what else is on the website. If you would like to read my humorous-but-true story that centers around my friend Alice, take a look at the recently updated and growing website of our Muskegon County Genealogical Society.

Below is the interesting biography/obituary on Charles Beatty from Antrim Ireland: http://www.famousamericans.net/charlesbeatty/ Charles Beatty BEATTY, Charles, clergyman, born in county Antrim, Ireland, about 1715 ; died in Bridgeton, Barbadoes, 13 August 1772. While very young he sailed for America, and, with other passengers, was landed on Cape Cod in a nearly famished condition, the ship having run short of provisions. Making his way to the neighborhood of Philadelphia, he began peddling in the vicinity. On one of his excursions he stopped at the " Log College " near Neshaminy, and fell into conversation with its founder, the Rev. William Tennent, who, discovering that the young peddler had a classical education, and possessed the true missionary spirit, persuaded him to study for the ministry, and he was ordained on 13 October 1742. He became pastor of the Presbyterian Church at the Forks of Nesharainy, Pennsylvania, 26 May 1748. The Presbyterians were at that time divided into two factions, the "Strict" or " Old Side " and the " New Side," and Mr. Beatty joined the former. He was associated with David Brainerd! in some of his missionary labors among the Indians, and accompanied Franklin as chaplain on a military expedition to establish frontier posts in the northwest, in 1755. Franklin relates, in his account of the expedition, that, noting the punctual attendance of the soldiers when the daily allowance of grog was served out, and contrasting it with their dilatory attendance at the regular religious services, he suggested to the chaplain the expediency of serving this popular ration immediately after prayers. The chaplain thought the idea good, accepted the task, and, adds Franklin, "never were prayers more generally and punctually attended, so that I think this method preferable to punishment inflicted by severe military laws for non-attendance on divine services." In 1766 Mr. Beatty made a prolonged missionary tour through the frontier settlements of Pennsylvania. Some of his sermons were printed, and he published the " Journal of a Two Months' Tour among the Frontier Inhabita! nts of Pennsylvania" (London, 1768), also a letter to the Rev. John Erskine, advocating the theory that the American Indians are the descendants of the lost Hebrew tribes. He was much interested in raising money for the struggling College of New Jersey (Princeton), and died of yellow fever while on a visit to Barbadoes with this object in view.

Beatty Cousins, A friend sent this to me along with the link to look around some more. Who knows? It could even be my own Beatty/Beaty family! Lois Kortering Erie Railroad Biography: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~sponholz/biojwbeatty.html James Beatty, Meadville, PA >From the November, 1907 issue of Erie Railroad Magazine (Meadville News): James Beatty, the veteran engineer, had a queer experience. Stepping from his engine to enter the Dispatcher's Office, he was run into by an Italian bicyclist, thrown down and had a hip dislocated. He was taken to Spencer Hospital and is slowly recovering. During the many years Mr. Beatty has railroaded he has never had any very serious mishap, and now to be used up by a bicyclist is rather galling to Jim. >From the December, 1907 issue of Erie Railroad Magazine (Meadville News): Engineer James Wallace Beatty, who for the past 15 years has been in the fast passenger service, is dead as the result of an accident noted in the November issue of the Magazine, when he was run into by a bicyclist. Mr. Beatty was a native of Meadville, where he was born October 25, 1840. In the fall of 1870 he began his railroad career as a brakeman, serving later as a fireman and getting his billet as an engineer in August, 1872. He was one of the most careful and painstaking men on the road, as well as a popular and deserving one. For several years he served as chaplain in his lodge of the B of LE, with whose members he was most popular. >From the January, 1908 issue of Erie Railroad Magazine: "It is an old saying among the Scotch that if "ye are to dee, ye'll dee," that a man dies when his time comes and in the way it was intended he should pass out. James W. Beatty, an Erie engineer, died at Meadville Monday, from the result of a fall on the sidewalk after 37 years' service on the railroad, two years as brakeman and 35 at the throttle. Estimating his daily run at 120 miles, 300 working days to the year, he travelled at least one and one-third million miles, faced millions of signals, an error in any one of which would have meant death, read thousands of train orders transmitted by thousands of operators and faced thousands of men running on duplicates of these orders, raced over switch-points by the hundred thousand, bridges and trestles innumerable. In other words, his chances of death by accident, reasonably probable, ran into the millions, yet he died from a cause that could just have naturally happened to a cobbler who never left the town he lived in. This not only witnesses to the old Scottish saying but speaks well for the discipline, care and skill of the railroaders." Reprinted from the Greenville, PA Advance

I found an interesting Civil War pension today. It was for Michael Beaty who was born in Ireland and enlisted in the Civil War from New York (Company "C" 149 Regiment of New York Volunteers). He lost his leg and was awarded an invalid pension. He returned to Ireland, was married there to Norah (Hanoria) Leahy on the 25th day of October 1878 and had four children (William born Sept. 3, 1879, Mary born Dec. 6, 1880, John born Feb. 15, 1883 and Richard born Dec. 9, 1884). The children were born in the District of Castlemartyr in the Union of Midleton in the county of Cork. The parents dwelling place is listed as Ballymacoola. Michael's file is full of Irish birth and marriage records. His widow received a pension after his death. Does anyone claim this man? I would love to share this pension. Laurel Baty, L252
