General Notes: Husband - Almatrim Beatty


He was six years old when he was left an orphan. He and his sibling(s) were brought to the home of Grandfather Whan, in Lawrence County, Pennsylvania, and he attended school first in the log and later in the frame school-house. He worked for his grandfather until his marriage, in 1871, when he engaged in farming for himself. His first purchase was 137 acres, from J. Douthett's heirs, of which he later sold fifty acres to J. R. Patterson and then bought thirty-eight acres, from George Patterson. He moved on his farm in 1873 and erected all the buildings except the residence. In 1888 his barn was struck by lighting, while he was away from home, but it was replaced. He carried on general farming and dairying, keeping fifteen milch cows, and always being able to dispose of his products profitably.

He was a stanch Republican and a man of influence in township politics. He filled many of the local offices and also served as justice of the peace. For more than twenty years he was an elder in the United Presbyterian Church. In addition to his farming and dairying interests, he was a stockholder of the Dairy Farmers' Company, at Pittsburgh, to which point he shipped his milk, and was also a stockholder in the Mt. Air Telephone Company.
