I am seeking information on John Wesley Beaittie and Sawyers (first name unknown). John Wesley Beaittie was born about 1831 in North Carolina or Tennessee. He Married Sarah Ellen Cordial (born 1853 in Tennessee) They had al least two children together Daniel C. Beaittie (born about 1870 Reville Arkansas) and Martha Isabel Beattie (Born about 1879 in Magazine Arkansas. John Wesley died in 1880 in Reville Arkansas. I have no more information on John Wesley or Sarah Elllen Cordial.
I am also looking for information on my gggrandfather Sawyers. Supposedly he was bushwacked close to Russellville Arkansas. He would have been born in the 1820"s

There is a Beatty family on the myfamily.com/Paris/AR site asociated with the Jewel Coal co. in 1925. "RB Beatty" is what they refer to him as. There is an article about an Edward Beatty as an orphan in 1917. Beaittie spelling does not come up with any info. I saw nothing under Sawyer.

Delaine (Betty's daughter)

Thank you so much. I am at a standstill on that branch of the family. I appreciate that you replied

I have quite a bit of information to share about John Wesley Beattie (that's the way it's spelled I believe,you have to get this right or people won't find this). He married Sarah Ellen Cordial and they had Daniel C beattie. B. 1869 in Georgia. Margaret Beattie B March 1872. Martha Beattie B. Dec 1879 in Arkansas.

Beattie died and my great great grandmother Sarah Ellen remarried a man names Moses R. Jones. They had a daughter (my grandmother)Lucy Mae Jones.

Email me, I may have more information. Those names you listed are familiar.

Thank you so much for your help. Since June I have found a little bit more. John Wesley's mother was Margaret Brickey and his father was William Beattie and his Mother was Rebecca Campbell. William's Father was Robert Beattie, mother unknown and Robert's father was Samuel Robert Beattie wife unknown.
I would appreciate any further information you might have
I do not have any information on Sarah Ellen Cordial's family however. I think she was born in Tennessee in 1853. I believe she married John Wesley when she was about 13. Family lore is that during the Civil war she would go between the neighbors carrying news.

Thank you so much for the information and help.

I remember aunt Lucy and Uncle Howard. They came to visit my mother several times.

William B. Beatty (as listed on his tombstone) is my GGgrandfather. His daughter Margaret Matilda Beatty is my Ggrandmother. William is buried in Evans Cemetery in Logan County, Arkansas. Margaret is buried in Oklahoma next my Ggrandfather James Monroe Loyd. I have a photo of all their grave stones I can email you if you wish.
