Beaty, J. J. (page 969), was born in the State of Massachusetts, in the 
year 1856. After receiving a good common school education he learned the 
carpenter trade. He came to this county in 1856, and resided for one year 
in Lake City, where he built the first mill. In 1857 he removed to this 
township, and has since given much of his time to farming. Mr. Beaty 
enlisted in Co. E., 11th Minn. Inf., in 1864, and served until the close 
of the war. The people of the county and township have honored him with 
many positions of trust, all of which he has filled with credit to himself 
and general satisfaction to the people. He is at present county surveyor, 
which position he has held for eight years. Mr. Beaty is a member of the 
State Grange Association, the Masonic lodge of Lake City, and the Good 
Templars lodge of Oak Centre. Mr. Beaty was married in 1844, to Mary 
Snondon, to whom were born twelve children, eleven of whom are living.
