General Notes: Husband - William Beatty


He resided on the homestead farm where he was born and reared, and always followed farming. He owned 160 acres. In close proximity to the Pittsburgh & Lake Erie railroad, Mr. Beatty owned a fine and profitable quarry of sandstone. In politics he was a Republican.

He grew to maturity in the place of his birth, as a lad attending the public schools, and in young manhood assisting his father on the home farm. At the death of his father he inherited eighty acres of the homestead, land later cultivated by his son, William George Beatty, later purchasing the Mc-Clure farm of one hundred and forty-five acres, upon which Frank L. Huffman later resided. He afterward sold this farm and purchased the property that had been his inheritance, adding thereto eighty acres adjoining. He was a member of the Presbyterian Church, and with his wife was a familiar figure at its services. The Republican party had no stronger supporter or more ardent sympathizer in that locality than Mr. Beatty.

Beside the children listed there were three others who died in infancy.
