Descendants of Leon G. Beatty

By Robert Lane

First Generation

1. Leon G. Beatty^1–2 was born about 1704.

Marvin Beatty reported the following around 2000: "It is possible that Walter is descended from John Beatty as he had several sons who scattered throughout the south. It is also possible that he was a descendant of John and Margaret Montgomery Beatty of Chester County, Pennsylvania." As more information has become readily available, researchers have suggested Leon Beaty and Jean Howitt as Walter's parents. Jean appears in tax records in Cumberland County, Pennsylvania. This information on Walter's parents should be considered to be unproven, perhaps even speculative.

He died about 1772 at the age of 68 in Cumberland, Pennsylvania, United States.

Leon G. Beatty and Jean Howitt were married about 1730. Jean Howitt¹ was born in 1712. She died in 1772 at the age of 60 in Cumberland, Pennsylvania, United States.

Leon G. Beatty and Jean Howitt had the following child:

2 i. Walter Beatty, born 1752.

Note: This surname has many different spellings, with some of the more common spellings being Beatty, Beaty and Baty. Many times, an individual’s surname would be spelled differently in various records. This document uses a standard spelling of Beatty. Researchers should decide for themselves which spelling applies to a specific person.

Second Generation

He served in the military about 1775 in The American Revolutionary War. He enlisted in Captain Robert Adams' company, Colonel Irvine's 6th Pennsylvania regiment in September 1775, in Cumberland Co., PA. He went on an expedition to Canada, fought in the battle of Three Rivers on June 8, 1776, and in some skirmishes. He was discharged on October 25, 1776 at Fort George due to ill health. He later served frequent tours with the Virginia Militia and was in battles at Allamance, Guilford, Haw River, and others.

He immigrated before 1809 to Hawkins, Tennessee, United States. He is listed in the county's 1809 tax records. Some research report that he immigrated around 1790. If the Walter Beatty found in the 1790 and 1800 censuses is the correct one, this date appears to be incorrect.

Both parts of an infinite plan--
Let me live in a house by the side of the road
And be a friend to man."

It is in this home that the companion passed away in 1947, but after his passing Mrs. Ellis stayed in the home which she shared with her daughter, Rose. It seemed she had borne a great deal of suffering in the loss of the different members of her family, but she seldom complained and still held to the Master's hand for strength and faith to carry on. Then in 1956, the family was dealt another loss in the passing of Arnold, upon whom she had depended so greatly after the death of the companion. For the last two and one half years, she had made her home with Rose, where she departed from this earth to her heavenly reward. In 1944, she became a member of the Ames Chapel Methodist Church. To the church and the community, she was known as Mom Ellis, and was always ready to serve her fellowman in any way she could, and until she moved to Indianapolis, she served as an officer in the Women's Society of Christian Service and as a part time Sunday School teacher. After moving from this community, she established herself in a church nearby her home, and as late as last Sunday enjoyed being in God's house for worship. She also was oldest member of the French Lick Order of Eastern Star, having received a fifty year membership pin several years ago. We will always remember Mom Ellis as a quiet and loving person sitting at her desk reading good books and magazines, and in so doing stored a wealth of knowledge, which she passed on to others. The youth in the church looked forward to her entertaining them in special programs, with readings and recitations, which she could so ably render. She lived a common life, but nature was one of her greatest interests and she spent many happy hours working among the flowers in her garden. And we all realize that when we walk and work in the great out doors, we learn to appreciate to the fullest extent, the many wonders God has given us to enjoy. And so it was with Mom, for as she walked and talked with Him, she saw the beauty of the Sunrise and Sunset, heard the song of the birds of the air, and felt the wind as it gently brushed her face. There was a great love for music in her heart, and she knew a great deal about it, and her children were given the opportunity to accomplish much in the field of music and their accomplishment meant so much to her. So let us not question the wisdom of the Master, when He quietly and tenderly called our loved one from us. It was as she would have wished it to have been, and her Father in Heaven knows she was ready to answer His gentle knock upon her door and to hear His invitation to step from this earth, across the threshold into Heaven. And we believe if we could hear words from her lips, she would say, 'It is good for me to draw near to God, for I have put all my trust in Him.' Her life has been a good life and a challenge to us all to walk a little closer to the One who knows best and whose love passeth all understanding." She was buried at Ames Chapel Cemetery in Orange, Indiana, United States.

Reid served in the military in World War II. His World War II enlistment record shows that he enlisted on December 6, 1943. Reid was a nose gunner in a B-24 Liberator bomber. His crew flew their Liberator from Roosevelt Field on Long Island, across the Atlantic Ocean, the Mediterranean Sea, North Africa, the Middle East, then to India, where Reid spent his 19th birthday. From there, they flew the "Hump" over the Himalayas into China, arriving in September 1944. The food was horrible. Donald Hagan remembers his mother packing small boxes with fig newtons, gum and other goodies to send to Reid. He was in the 14th Air Force, headquartered at Kunming, China, although his outfit was stationed farther east. His squadron was charged with patrolling the South China Sea, interdicting Japanese shipping and destroying supplies intended for Japanese land forces still fighting in the interior. The operation was called the China-Burma-India (CBI) Theatre. The 14th Air Force was the operational descendent of Claire Chennault's famed Flying Tigers. By the time Reid entered China, most of the Japanese fighter force had retreated to the Homeland to defend against the B-29's that were laying waste to their cities. However, they had to be watchful of anti-aircraft fire. These aircraft went on their patrols alone and were assigned a particular area of ocean to cover. They carried about 18 hours of fuel and their missions were about 16 hours in duration. The B-24 had a ceiling of about 32,000 feet, so if a typhoon came in, they had to fly through it - the storms were too tall to fly over and too wide to fly around with limited fuel. On one particular mission, the squadron sent two aircraft (Reid could not remember why). To get home, they had to fly through a typhoon. When they emerged, they were over Hainan (Hainandao) Island off North Vietnam, which was Japanese occupied, and the plane was immediately subjected to anti-aircraft fire. While transiting the storm, the crew had left their battle stations and gathered in the fuselage behind the flight deck. They were hit by at least one burst of flak, which took off a portion of one of the two vertical stabilizers and the rear gun turret, which made the aircraft very difficult to fly. They were low on fuel, so the pilot had feathered one prop, and they were lost. The pilot ordered the crew to bail out while he stayed to try to land the aircraft, but the crew took a vote (very unmilitary of them) and told him they would all bail out together or they would all ride it down together. They finally found a field (their comm gear was primitive and they had no contact with their home base), but they didn't know which side it belonged to. The fuel gauges were on "E", so they landed. The field turned out to be British. No one knows what became of the second aircraft. Another incident involved them arriving in the vicinity of their home field one dark evening and not being able to find it. There were no landing lights. The navigator was pulling his hair, positive he was in the right place. Again, fuel was low, one of two engines had been feathered, and nerves were frayed. Just when they were preparing for a crash landing, the runway lights came on. The pilot made a hot descent and landed safely. It turns out that the field commander had been warned that there were Japanese bombers in the area and had ordered lights out and radio silence. They could hear the plane circling and the pleas on the radio, but would not answer. When it became clear that the craft was running out of fuel and about to crash, the order was given to turn the lights on for a short period. By the spring of 1945, no more complete crews were coming over. Replacements would come in by ones and twos. These people had to receive "on-the-job" training that the initial crews had received state-side prior to deployment. Reid volunteered for these training missions. People had to earn points to get rotated home. Everyone had to accumulate around 300 hours to get out of the country and home. The volunteer hours spent on training missions counted toward rotation home. Just as replacements came in by ones or twos, veterans left the same way, as sufficient points were accumulated. By the time Reid was eligible to depart, he was competing with guys who were coming out the jungles of Burma after 3 or 4 years; those guys got first dibs on flights to the U.S. One could opt for a berth on a ship, but some of those ships took 3 months to reach the U.S., due to stopovers in the Philippines, Australia, and Hawaii. Reid kept haunting the Military Air Transport offices in India and finally got a seat on a flight to San Francisco, then to Indianapolis. He rode a Greyhound Bus to French Lick, arriving about 4 a.m. on July 4, 1945. He deposited his duffle bag in front of the Star Store and walked home. Walking out old Highway 145, he noticed something strange. It finally dawned on him: trees, lush, full, trees. Most of his training from September 1943 to September 1944 had been in areas of the country where there weren't many trees; the area of China where he was based was barren. Wood was a precious commodity; it was needed for fuel by the peasants. Needless to say, his arrival home in those warm, predawn, hours was a cause for much joy. He was about 10 weeks short of his 20th birthday. Reid received the Bronze Star, the Air Medal, and possibly, the Distinguished Flying Cross. Don Hagan was unable to locate any of these and Reid couldn't remember where they were. His first wife took one of them for a memento.

He died on May 23, 2006 at the age of 80 at Orange County Hospital in Paoli, Orange, Indiana, United States. Don Hagan reported that Reid fell in his basement on May 19.

Notes

1. Census Data: Rather than repeat the detail from a family census entry in each person’s record, it has been recorded only in the Head of Household record, and only the census year and location are recorded in the family member records (with a few exceptions, like adult children living with their parents). If you are reviewing a person who is not the Head of Household, be sure to look at the Head of Household entry to see if there is additional information.

2. Name Spelling: Spelling of names in obituaries, newspaper articles, census records, etc., was often incorrect. The spelling could be different in every place it is found. When I report these facts for a person, I usually report the name as it was spelled, but in some cases I chose to correct the spelling.

3. Place Naming Convention: I use the following: place (township, city, institution, etc.), county, state, country. Descriptive words are only used when needed for clarification. Here are some examples:

Orangeville Town = Orangeville, Orange, Indiana, United States

Orangeville Township = Orangeville Township, Orange, Indiana, United States

4. Direct Ancestral Line: The direct ancestors of the author of this document are highlighted in blue.

5. To the best of my knowledge, this document excludes living people. However, mistakes happen. If you have evidence that I have incorrectly listed a person as deceased, please contact me and I will correct my information.

Genealogy research is always a work in progress. No matter how much information you have, it is never complete. No matter how much you check your work, it will always contain mistakes. Please keep this in mind as you read this document. If you can offer additional information or correct any mistakes, I would love to hear from you.
