Society MARKELSVILLE MARCH 10TH Mrs. Nancy Gilson Bealor, widow of D.R.P. Bealor died at Alleghney City,Pa., on the 4th of June inst. She was born at McAlisterville Juniata County September 25, 1829 and was a daughter of John P. and Hannah G. Thompson. She was the eldest of a family of seven children. Alexander Thompson died in 1869, Col. J.M. Thompson, late of the 49th infantry, P.V. died in 1874. Major James B. Thompson of the 1st Pennsylvania Bucktails, died in 1875, Jane G. who was the wife of E.P. Titzel of Millerstown died in 1889. Mrs. C.A.Smith of Lewistown died in December last. But one of the family remains, Mrs. D.G. Alter of Port Royal. Early in the fifties the subject of this sketch was married to Mr. Bealor. For several years they resided at West Fairview, Cumberland County. Then they move to this place and erected buildings on the farm purchased from his father, John Bealor remaining about twenty years. After Mr. Bealor returned from the war they sold their property and moved to Harrisburg. From there they moved to Port Royal, going to Alleghney City in 1883 where Mr. Bealor died in 1893. Nine children were the fruit of this union. Rebecca J. and James B. died in infancy. Seven survived as follows: John T, David G, Budd G, Jesse L, Nanie, and Bertie all of Alleghney City, and Mrs. August Walkmyer of Pittsburg. Mre Bealor united with the Presbyterian church at an early age, but after her marriage joined the Lutheran Church with her husband, living and dying a devot member of the same. She was an affectionate wife and fond mother. Her Christian virtues are worthy of emulation. The body was conveyed to this place and inturred in the cemetery yesterday. ****Note Allegheny City is modern day Northside Pittsburgh Additional Comments: There was no year given in the files of the Perry County Historical society and the obit was clipped from a paper with no reference to name or date. It has to be before 1927 because the obit mentions her sister Mrs. D.G. ALter (Hannah Isabelle Thompson ALter) as the only living sibling and she was alive until 1927.
