There are several other mentions of Beattys in this book in other people's wills that I thought I would add: Page 88: (Pages 239 -240 York Co Sc WB A-1 1800-1813), Jonathan Beatie is an executor of the will of Jas. Dean and Wm. Beaty is a witness. Page 190: Eliza A. R. Beatty is mentioned in the will of William Dickson (pages 370-373, York Co WB G 1820 - 1837) "To my granddaughter Eliza A. R. Beatty and her heirs a negro girl named Fanny and also all the property once claimed by her mother and deposited in my hands by her father Wm. Beatty for her use." dated 21 Sept. 1830. Page 26: Joseph Beaty is a witness to the will of Robert Leeper 13 April 1795 (pages 152 - 155 of York Co SC Will Book A 1787 -1799) Page 339: Susan Beatty is mentioned in the will of Sarah McFaddin (pages 440-422 of York Co WB 3, 1840-1862) "To Robert McFadden $100 in money & a negro girl called Mary Jane for the alone & separate use & benefit for of my daughter Susan wife of Wm. Beatty." Will dated May 12th 1859. Page 341: William C. Beatty is an executor of the will of Nancy Blair (pages 428 - 431, York Co WB 3, 1840 - 1862) dated 2 Nov. 1860. Also in this will "To Ann M. Beatty, wife of W. C. Beatty, for her sole and separate use, $200."
