    3. >From "County of Williams Ohio, Historical and Biographical with an Outline Sketch of the Northwest Territory, of the State, and Miscellaneous Matters," Weston A. Goodspeed & Charles Blanchard; Chicago, F. A. Battey & Co. Publishers, 1882. Page 654: GEORGE BEATY is the son of James and Mary (Kahl) Beaty, of Irish and German extraction, and was born in Berks County, Penn., December 8, 1809. He came, with his parents, to Stark County, Ohio, in 1817, and remained with them until twenty-two years of age, and then engaged in alternately running a threshing machine and in lumbering. March 15, 1838, he married Mary Jane Wiser, who was born in Cumberland County, Penn., and came to Ohio, with her parents, about 1835. His mother, Mary Beaty, died about 1825, and his father, James Beaty, was thrown from a buggy and instantly killed, in 1849, while on his way to a camp-meeting near Massillon. He was a consistent member of the Disciples' Church. George Beatty came to this township and entered eighty acres of land on Section 10, in 1834, returned to Stark County, was married there in 1838, and came back to Brady, with his family, in 1845, and settled on his land. There were five sons and four daughters born to him; three of the boys died in infancy, and one -- Frank T., at the age of nineteen; the fifth -- M. T. Beaty, is now superintending the home farm. This son takes much interest in live stock, and is the owner of a Mambrino colt that promises to become a trotter of some note, and which he calls Red Cloud, Jr. The daughters are all married, excepting one. Mr. Beaty is a member of the Disciples' Church, and in politics he is a Republican. His maternal grandfather, George Kahl, was a soldier of the Revolution. Laurel Baty, L252
