Does anyone claim Thomas Beatty (d.6/11/1816 age 69) and Margaret Beatty (d.3/27/1825 age 75)? Both are buried in the Cross Creek Cemetery in Washington County, PA. Thomas Beatty
Yes, they are the earliest know members of BP lineage 044. Thomas was my great, great, great grandfather. If you want details I'll be glad to supply them. Marvin Beatty
Hi Thomas, Have you considered DNA testing? We have a DNA sample from Lineage 64B: William Ferrington Batey b: 1775 in Brunswick, Virginia d: December 1850 in Rutherford Co, Tennessee +Elizabeth Parham Sills b: in VA d: Abt. October 28, 1838 in Rutherford Co, Tennessee m: November 15, 1815 in Rutherford Co, Tennessee [probably connected to L64] We don't have a DNA sample from a descendant of Capt. William Batey. It would be interesting to compare your lineage with L64B. You can read about the Beatty DNA project at: http://www.beattydna.org/ One way of proving relationships between people involves studying their neighbors and associates. If you look at Capt. William Batey of Rutherford County, TN do you find similarities between his neighbors and those in Brunswick County, Virginia? Have you mapped any land owned in Brunswick County, VA and searched for neighboring land owners? You need to study all of the documents created by William Betty of Brunswick County, VA and all of the documents created by William Batey of Rutherford County and try to build a case for the relationship using indirect evidence.

I think this was lineage 5. I believe that Annie Harris of L454 is a part of your lineage. Her information along with that of lineage 183 was merged into Lineage 5 and I believe it may have been separated out of lineage 5 again. Anyway I did a lot of research on this family several years ago and have posted many items. You might try searching the BP2000 mailing list Archives for the word Venango. Here is a link to the BP200 mailing list search: http://archiver.rootsweb.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/search If you use the advanced search option you put BP2000 in the name of the list and then Venango in the Body field. I found 93 matches. A book has been written about Robert Beatty of Venango which caused some of the confusion that linked it to lineage 5.

The second wife was Lavinna Owens Edmonds, a widow. William Beaty, a son of John A(dams) Beaty married his step sister, a daughter of Lavinna Edmonds by her first husband. Then cousins married cousins and the line became very confused. Dr. Beaty's sons are, I think, the only Beaty males in John Owens' line. Will double check that. Tons of descendants but not males with the name of Beaty. And Virginia married a Poe and one of their sons married a Beaty female.

In 1812, Lord Fairfax's heirs sold Gooney Manor Leeds to James and Chief Justice John Marshall. The Marshall family sold about 8,000 acres to William Woodward in 1837 and in 1901 our great-grandfather purchased a small part of the Woodward tract. The estate comprises 212 acres of pastures and forests, and currently 14.5 acres of vineyards. It is surrounded by neighboring farms and mountain forests and to the east we share a common border with Shenandoah National Park. Our farm is recognized by the Commonwealth of Virginia as a Century Farm for being owned and farmed by four generations of our family for over 100 years. Stephen Clifton Lawson and his wife, Annie Susan Beaty bought this property in 1901. They were the first generation of our family to live on and farm this land. The only structure on the land at that time was a very nice log cabin. The Lawsons lived in this cabin while they built a larger home that is still used by our family today. In addition to the Manor home, the Lawsons also constructed a large German style bank barn and numerous other outbuildings. Most of these structures are still being used today although for different purposes and include a separator house with well porch and spring dairy, a corn house, a garage, a wood house, a meat house, a light house for generating electrical power, a vinegar house, an ice house, a blacksmith shop, a hen house, 2 brooder houses, a turkey house and other structures for maintaining livestock. This is a mountain farm and although the Lawsons grew both wheat and corn in the lower more fertile fields, much of the farm which is steeply sloped and with less fertile soils, was first planted to apple and peach orchards. It is high on these mountain slopes above where once orchards flourished that we now grow our wine. In addition to selling wheat, corn, apples and peaches, the Lawsons sold cream, butter and eggs. Everything else raised or grown on the farm was for their family's consumption. The Lawsons had one child, Ruth Ardelia, who married Raymond Hodder Rudacille. They were the second generation of our family to work and live on this land. Ruth gave birth to two children in the Manor home, a son Stuart Lawson and a daughter Anna Rae. Upon the deaths of Ruth and Raymond, the farm passed to their two children. Anna Rae married Alpheus Lee White and the portion of the farm that Anna Rae inherited is where the vineyards and winery are now established. The Whites have three sons and together own the winery business. It is managed and operated by their youngest son, Jeffrey Raymond, who developed an interest in and an appreciation for fine wines while working for a nearby Virginia winery. He established our original vineyards in 1995 and envisioned what is today Glen Manor Vineyards. 1910 United States Federal Census about Stephen C Lauson Name: Stephen C Lauson [Stephen C Lawson] Age in 1910: 49 Estimated birth year: abt 1861 Birthplace: Virginia Relation to Head of House: Head Father's Birth Place: Virginia Mother's Name: Eliza Mother's Birth Place: Virginia Spouse's name: Annie Home in 1910: South River, Warren, Virginia Marital Status: Married Race: White Gender: Male Neighbors: View others on page Household Members: Name Age Stephen C Lauson 49 head mar 10 ys VA VA VA farm Annie Lauson 49 wife 1 ch 1 ch mar once for 10 ys VA VA VA Ruth Lauson 8 dau VA VA VA Eliza Lauson 86 mother widowed 7 ch 6 lvg VA VA VA Maude Ramey 23 adopted dau single VA VA VA _____________________________________________________ Evidently, it was too big.

John Owen Beaty, teacher and author, was born to James Robert and Eula (Simms) Beaty at Crow, West Virginia, on December 22, 1890. He received his B.A. and M.A. degrees from the University of Virginia in 1913 and enlisted in the United States Army in 1917; he remained on active duty through World War I,qv then stayed in Europe and took graduate courses at the Université de Montpellier, France, before returning to the United States, where he joined the faculty of Southern Methodist University in Dallas in 1919. He married Josephine Mason Powell in 1920. The couple raised four children. Beaty completed his Ph.D. in 1921 at Columbia University. In 1926-27 he was an American Kahn fellow in Asia and Europe. In 1922 he was promoted to professor; he was selected chairman of the Department of English in 1927. He retained this position until 1940 and was honorary chairman until his retirement from the university in 1957. From 1926 to 1934 he was visiting professor during the summers at various universities, including the University of Texas. He authored and coauthored a number of articles for popular and professional journals and several books, including An Introduction to Poetry (1922), An Introduction to Drama (1927), Texas Poems (1936), Swords in the Dawn (1937), Image of Life (1940), and Crossroads (1956). In 1951 he published The Iron Curtain Over America. This highly controversial and widely criticized book contended that Jews not only were largely responsible for the success of the Bolshevik Revolution but dominated the Democratic partyqv in the United States. Beaty was chairman of the Modern Language Association's Old English group, 1938-39; president of the Texas branch of the Conference of College Teachers of English, 1937-38; and a member of the American Academy of Political Science. He also served as pronunciation consultant for the second edition of Webster's New International Dictionary, published in 1934. In addition, he was a member of the United States Army Reserve until 1950; he retired with the rank of colonel. After his retirement from SMU, Beaty and his wife moved to Campbellton Farm, which his father had established, near Barboursville, Virginia. He died on September 9, 1961, while hospitalized at Gordonsville, Virginia. He was a Baptist and a member of the Order of the White Cross, the Masonic order, and the Woodmen of the World.

In his entry for Jan. 16, 1899, for example. Scott noted that " .. . Horace Beaty died about 4 a.m. today .. .. " and the next day he reported that he " ... attended the burial of Horace Beaty at Crow. A very large concourse of people in attendance .... , And on Jan. 29 of the same year Scott's entry noted. " ... John S. Hull buried today .... Beaty, Hull and Scott were related by blood or marriage, as was often the case in those days of sparse settlement and scant population. The population of Raleigh County all told was less than 10,000 at the time and Beckley was home for only about 300 of them (the population in the official census of 1900 was only 342). The town of Crow, where only a handful of people live today, was larger than Beckley (or Raleigh Court House. as it was more commonly called) and there was some thougnt of transferring the county seat there. It waS a thriving town of 500 or so with a railroad and a busy lumber mill neither of which Beckley had. One of the reasons for it's prosperity was Horace Beaty and his brother James Robert ("Jim Bob"). They had established the Beaty Lumber co. there around 1890 and built a railroad to serve it. That Glade Creek and Raleigh Railroad stretched from Glade (a settlement at the mouth of Glade Creek on New River), where it connected with the Cheasapeake & Ohio, up the mountain and through a tunnel, thence down into Crow, from whence it followed Little Beaver Creek to Raleigh (Glen Morgan). Later it would continue up Piney River between Raleigh and Mabscott and terminate near where Institute School is now located. Horace Beaty was married to Sallie Scott, a daughter of Robert and Angeline Hull Scott, a sister of Thaddeus K., Moses E. and Douglas Scott and a first cousin of Oliver Scott whose father (James) was Robert's brother. Horace was the mechanical brains of the Beaty brothers and was the engineer on the Shay engine which powered the aforementioned railroad. His daughter in- law. Mabel Chambers (Mrs. "Jim Bob II") Beaty, a retired teacher who was an instructor at Woodrow Wilson High School for many years and now lives on North Fayette Street, recalls a story of the opening of the railroad. The Shay engine which was to pull the logging and freight trains was shipped in from Cincinnati in parts and had to be assembled. No one around had experience in doing such a job and Jim Bob I went to Cincinnati to acquire the services of an expert to put it together. But while he was gone his brother Horace figured the prob]em out and when Jim Bob and the expert arrived the engine had already been put together and was in fine working order. Mrs. Beaty notes that her husband, Jim Bob II was only a little over a year old when his father Horace died on Jan. 16. 1899. The cause of death was thought to be typhoid fever, but Mrs. Beaty is of the opinion that it was really peritonitis from a ruptured appendix. Horace was only 38 at the time of his death.

In his entry for Jan. 16, 1899, for example. Scott noted that " .. . Horace Beaty died about 4 a.m. today .. .. " and the next day he reported that he " ... attended the burial of Horace Beaty at Crow. A very large concourse of people in attendance .... , And on Jan. 29 of the same year Scott's entry noted. " ... John S. Hull buried today .... Beaty, Hull and Scott were related by blood or marriage, as was often the case in those days of sparse settlement and scant population. The population of Raleigh County all told was less than 10,000 at the time and Beckley was home for only about 300 of them (the population in the official census of 1900 was only 342). The town of Crow, where only a handful of people live today, was larger than Beckley (or Raleigh Court House. as it was more commonly called) and there was some thougnt of transferring the county seat there. It waS a thriving town of 500 or so with a railroad and a busy lumber mill neither of which Beckley had. One of the reasons for it's prosperity was Horace Beaty and his brother James Robert ("Jim Bob"). They had established the Beaty Lumber co. there around 1890 and built a railroad to serve it. That Glade Creek and Raleigh Railroad stretched from Glade (a settlement at the mouth of Glade Creek on New River), where it connected with the Cheasapeake & Ohio, up the mountain and through a tunnel, thence down into Crow, from whence it followed Little Beaver Creek to Raleigh (Glen Morgan). Later it would continue up Piney River between Raleigh and Mabscott and terminate near where Institute School is now located. Horace Beaty was married to Sallie Scott, a daughter of Robert and Angeline Hull Scott, a sister of Thaddeus K., Moses E. and Douglas Scott and a first cousin of Oliver Scott whose father (James) was Robert's brother. Horace was the mechanical brains of the Beaty brothers and was the engineer on the Shay engine which powered the aforementioned railroad. His daughter in- law. Mabel Chambers (Mrs. "Jim Bob II") Beaty, a retired teacher who was an instructor at Woodrow Wilson High School for many years and now lives on North Fayette Street, recalls a story of the opening of the railroad. The Shay engine which was to pull the logging and freight trains was shipped in from Cincinnati in parts and had to be assembled. No one around had experience in doing such a job and Jim Bob I went to Cincinnati to acquire the services of an expert to put it together. But while he was gone his brother Horace figured the prob]em out and when Jim Bob and the expert arrived the engine had already been put together and was in fine working order.

He received his B.A. and M.A. degrees from the University of Virginia in 1913 and enlisted in the United States Army in 1917; he remained on active duty through World War I,qv then stayed in Europe and took graduate courses at the Université de Montpellier, France, before returning to the United States, where he joined the faculty of Southern Methodist University in Dallas in 1919. He married Josephine Mason Powell in 1920. The couple raised four children. Beaty completed his Ph.D. in 1921 at Columbia University. In 1926-27 he was an American Kahn fellow in Asia and Europe.

He authored and coauthored a number of articles for popular and professional journals and several books, including An Introduction to Poetry (1922), An Introduction to Drama (1927), Texas Poems (1936), Swords in the Dawn (1937), Image of Life (1940), and Crossroads (1956). In 1951 he published The Iron Curtain Over America. This highly controversial and widely criticized book contended that Jews not only were largely responsible for the success of the Bolshevik Revolution but dominated the Democratic partyqv in the United States. Beaty was chairman of the Modern Language Association's Old English group, 1938-39; president of the Texas branch of the Conference of College Teachers of English, 1937-38; and a member of the American Academy of Political Science. He also served as pronunciation consultant for the second edition of Webster's New International Dictionary, published in 1934. In addition, he was a member of the United States Army Reserve until 1950; he retired with the rank of colonel. After his retirement from SMU, Beaty and his wife moved to Campbellton Farm, which his father had established, near Barboursville, Virginia. He died on September 9, 1961, while hospitalized at Gordonsville, Virginia. He was a Baptist and a member of the Order of the White Cross, the Masonic order, and the Woodmen of the World.

Raleigh Register, Beckley, Raleigh co., WV Feb. 23, 1977 Bug dust (column name) by Bob Wills SCOTT DIARY TELLS DEATH OF TWO NOTED COUNTIANS In Oliver Scott's ledger-diary for the 1895 - 1901 period, which has been the subject of this column for the last couple of weeks, there was often mention of persons who, like the Table Rock farmer - merchant - diary keeper himself played promlnent roles in the early history and development of this area. In his entry for Jan. 16, 1899, for example. Scott noted that " .. . Horace Beaty died about 4 a.m. today .. .. " and the next day he reported that he " ... attended the burial of Horace Beaty at Crow. A very large concourse of people in attendance .... , And on Jan. 29 of the same year Scott's entry noted. " ... John S. Hull buried today .... Beaty, Hull and Scott were related by blood or marriage, as was often the case in those days of sparse settlement and scant population. The population of Raleigh County all told was less than 10,000 at the time and Beckley was home for only about 300 of them (the population in the official census of 1900 was only 342). The town of Crow, where only a handful of people live today, was larger than Beckley (or Raleigh Court House. as it was more commonly called) and there was some thougnt of transferring the county seat there. It waS a thriving town of 500 or so with a railroad and a busy lumber mill neither of which Beckley had. One of the reasons for it's prosperity was Horace Beaty and his brother James Robert ("Jim Bob"). They had established the Beaty Lumber co. there around 1890 and built a railroad to serve it. That Glade Creek and Raleigh Railroad stretched from Glade (a settlement at the mouth of Glade Creek on New River), where it connected with the Cheasapeake & Ohio, up the mountain and through a tunnel, thence down into Crow, from whence it followed Little Beaver Creek to Raleigh (Glen Morgan). Later it would continue up Piney River between Raleigh and Mabscott and terminate near where Institute School is now located. Horace Beaty was married to Sallie Scott, a daughter of Robert and Angeline Hull Scott, a sister of Thaddeus K., Moses E. and Douglas Scott and a first cousin of Oliver Scott whose father (James) was Robert's brother. Horace was the mechanical brains of the Beaty brothers and was the engineer on the Shay engine which powered the aforementioned railroad. His daughter in- law. Mabel Chambers (Mrs. "Jim Bob II") Beaty, a retired teacher who was an instructor at Woodrow Wilson High School for many years and now lives on North Fayette Street, recalls a story of the opening of the railroad. The Shay engine which was to pull the logging and freight trains was shipped in from Cincinnati in parts and had to be assembled. No one around had experience in doing such a job and Jim Bob I went to Cincinnati to acquire the services of an expert to put it together. But while he was gone his brother Horace figured the prob]em out and when Jim Bob and the expert arrived the engine had already been put together and was in fine working order. Mrs. Beaty notes that her husband, Jim Bob II was only a little over a year old when his father Horace died on Jan. 16. 1899. The cause of death was thought to be typhoid fever, but Mrs. Beaty is of the opinion that it was really peritonitis from a ruptured appendix. Horace was only 38 at the time of his death. Jim Bob II named for his uncle, later became one of the area's leading large scale farmers in the same Table Rock area where Oliver Scott lived. He died April 19. 1967 at the age of 69. He and Mabel had no children. The elder Jim Bob who was about 10 years older than his brother Horace. also died later on in the year 1899. He left two children, John, a college professor and author of the book "Iron Curtain over America" and Annie. John had three children, Richard, Mary and James Robert III, a doctor in Texas.The John S. Hull who died Jan. 26, 1899 and whose burial on Jan. 29 was noted in Scott's diary was one of Beckley's early merchants and hotel keepers. He was a nephew of Mrs. Robert (Angeline Hull) Scott and was married to Annie Prince, daughter of William Prince who was a first cousin of Gen. Alfred Beckley, who settled here in the 1830's and named the town in honor of his father John Beckley, first librarian of Congress and clerk of the House of Representatives in the terms of George Washington and Thomas Jefferson. Hull built the sprawling many turreted and gabled frame "Hotel Hull" which stood on the present site of the Beckley Hotel and was the stopping place for the many Charleston, Cincinatti and Pittsburgh, etc. drummers and jobbers who served the area in those days. It was also the gathering place for the town's socialites. The hotel had been completed and opened in January of 1894. Arter Hull's death in 1899 it was successively owned and operated by Addison Snuffer, Andrew Williams and Sam Fisher. who was the hotel-keeper when it burned to the ground on the night of Sunday Sept. 29. 1912.
