Other-Begin:
referred to in letter by his wife's cousin Joseph R. Young written to James and Nancy Lovelady:
"Uncle John Lovelady's [m Mary Cox] son-in-laws Disert [John B. Dysart m Rebecca Lovelady] and Meier [Elias Miers m Sallie Lovelady] fought under Shelby so did the Alisons. [Allisons, allied family from Lafayette county, MO]"

Research Notes:
Quite likely either grandson, maybe great-grandson. Unable to find the missing generation or two, but his "B" initial could stand for Beatty and this Dysart family did relocate from Virginia to Rockbridge, KY and then some on to Missouri. This is probably his family, somehow.

Lovelady and Mary "Polly" Cox) was born in 1819 in Lafayette Co, Missouri; died on 11 Sep 1910 in Dover, Layfayette Co, Missouri; was buried in Dover Cem, Dover, Lafayette Co, Missouri.

b.1744, County Donegal, Ireland

d. 26 May 1818, Rockcastle County, Kentucky

m. Nancy (Agnes) Beattie, 1775

James Dysart's parents died while he was an infant and he was raised by his grandfather, who gave him an education. In 1761 he landed in Philadelphia. From there he gradually worked his way to the south-east and settled in the Holston Valley. In 1770 he joined James Knox and others in exploring Tennessee and Kentucky. He married the sister of Capt. David Beattie and settled on the Little Holston River. While serving as a captain under Maj. William Edmondson and Col. Campbell he received a wound (which crippled him for life) in his left hand during the battle at Kings Mountain. In 1781 he was made a major and subsequently a colonel and once represented Washington County in the Virginia Legislature. In his old age, broken up by surety debts, he moved to Rockcastle County, Kentucky, with his wife, three sons, and three daughters. He was placed on the invalid pension list on 18 December 1806 in Rockcastle County, Kentucky.

Hi
You and I have a common interest in Beatty ancestors, although our common ancestor appears to be in the 1600?s.

The furthest back on the Beatty?s you appear to have recorded is Arthur Beatty (1673-1741) in Killeshandra, co Cavan, Ireland. According to Crossle (google Crossle and Beatty), his father was John Beatty (c1615-1681), and John Beatty?s father was also John Beatty (c1585 ? c 1640). John Beatty snr was supposedly from Dumfries in Scotland, and the timing of his move to Ireland would be consistent with the establishment of the English plantations in Ulster. Of course, pedigrees this far back I always take with reservations.

According to the sources (again mostly Crossle), I am descended from Arthur?s older brother Archibald (bc 1661). His descendants that are my ancestors remained in Ireland until the mid 1800?s, and then seem to have dispersed

Kind regards

Arthur married Martha Cairnes about 1705 in Ireland. Martha was born in 1687 in Claremore, Tyrone, Ireland; died in Apr 1743 in Killeshandra, Calvin, Ireland. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
