Possible parents for John Joseph Beatty of Brooklyn? In researching this lineage I looked at New York passenger records and found that John Joseph Beatty went to Europe at least 4 times from 1913 to about 1933. The passenger records record people coming back into the US whether they are Americans or foreigners. I found John J. Beatty and made a positive identification using his address: He arrives March 8, 1913, and states he was born Oct. 31, 1871, Brooklyn, NY, address: 1469 Dean St., Brooklyn, NY He arrives February 3, 1924 and states he was born Oct. 31, 1870, Brooklyn, NY, address 1469 Dran [Dean] St. Brooklyn He arrives February 22, 1937 and states he was born Oct. 31, 1869, Brooklyn, NY, address 916 St. Markus, Brooklyn He arrives September 15, 1933 and states he was born Oct. 31, 1869, Brooklyn, NY, address 916 St. Marks Ave. Brooklyn, In the 1910 and 1920 Census his address is 1469 Dean Street, Brooklyn. At the time of the 1930 Census he was living at 916 St. Mark's Ave., Brooklyn and in fact was still living at St. Mark's Avenue at his death in 1957: New York Times, May 12, 1957 Beatty, John J. on May 11, 1957 of 803 St. Mark's Ave., Brooklyn. Funeral notice later [I never found the notice] In trying to locate his parents I looked at all of the John Beattys living in Brooklyn in 1870 and 1880 with birth years from 1868 -1872 and parents born in Ireland. There were several possibilities but I believe the following family is the most likely one, based on census address and the address of Ellen Beatty at her death in 1907 (1496 Dean Street, Brooklyn, widowed with 2 sons and 1 daughter). This is rather circumstantial evidence and it would be nice to find a will record for Ellen or John Beatty, a birth record for John J. Beatty or some other form of proof of his parentage. Note that his middle initial is H. in the pre 1900 census-I speculate that the middle name "Joseph" was one he chose at his Catholic confirmation. 1900 United States Federal Census Name: Ellen Beatty Home in 1900: Brooklyn Ward 24, Kings, New York, 320 St. Mark's, owns home.
