Bobbie, James Edwin Beatty (who married Dora Hull) and Anna Beatty (who m. Rolfe Patrick) were siblings. They are not related, to my knowledsge, to John Eugene Beatty and Jessie Gertrude Beatty (who m. Nathaniel Norton). So it seems clear there are at least two distinct Beatty families in Story County - my Lineage 24 group and an unknown group.
