Samuel S Beatty
Samuel S. Beaty, son of Thomas and Rebecca Beatty was born in Salem, Washington county, NY, July 8, 1818 and departed this life July 13, 1909, being 91 years and 4 days old at the time of his death. He was the fourth child of a family of eleven children - 3 brothers and 7 sisters, all of whom have preceded him to the other world. About thirty five years of his life was spent in New York.
He was united in marriage with Elizabeth Ramsey, and after about two and a half years of married happiness he was deprived of his companion by death. One child was born to this union, Mrs. Margaret Hart, now of Belmont, Neb. He was again united in marriage with Janet McCaslin of Argyle, NY. After one year spent in their native county, they joined the vast throng then moving west, settling near Aurora, Ill, staying there one year.
In the spring of 1833, he moved to Iowa, settling in the south Benton county and farmed the present site of Blairstown. The following fall they moved to a farm he had entered from the government and farmed for 41 years. At that time Marengo was his postoffice, some fifteen miles distant, and it then consisted of about fifteen log cabins.
To this union were born two children Mrs D.W. Beaty of Harlan, Iowa and W.T. Beaty of Seim, S.D.
After two years residence on the farm, death again visited the home taking his helpmate and he was again left with three small children when neighbors were far distant and all the privations of settling a new country had to be endured. But one of his characteristics through life has been to meet trouble unflinching and to look at life's darkest clouds in a cheerful way which helped him through this trying ordeal.
After about two years he was again united in marriage with Mrs. Sarah E. Long, who survives him. To this union six children were born: Mrs. D.A. Coder, now of Luzerne, Iowa; J.R. Beaty of Merriman, Nebr; Mrs. J.S. Stuart of Blairstown; John B. Beaty, deceased; D.T. Beaty, Marengo and G.A. Beaty who resided with his parents and cared for them in their old age.
He also raised a stepson, C.F. Long now of Oelrichs, S.D. who was always treated with kindness and consideration by him and given the same advantages as his own children. In 1900 (?) he moved to Marengo where he spent his remaining years in peace and comfort.
Mr. Beatty was born and raised in the United Presbyterian faith and lived and died a staunch believer in the creed and tenets of that denomination, never having withdrawn his allegiance from the old home church in Salem, N.Y.
The funeral services were held from his late residence on Wednesday afternoon at four o-clock. Rev. Theodore Morning of Independence, Iowa officiated; interment in I.O.O.F. cemetery. Two sons and a daughter were deterred from being present by the long distance they reside from the old home. All the other members of the family were present, also a niece, Miss Anna Beattie, who has resided with the family for the past five years, and who nursed her uncle through his last illness.
