General Notes: Husband - William Beazell


After his marriage he settled on a farm near Bellevernon, Pennsylvania, later owned by Levi Johnson, and there he lived about ten years. By purchase from the heirs he subsequently became the owner of the old Beazell homestead. This he eventually sold to Joshua Budd, when he moved on to a farm in Mifflin township, Allegheny County, one and a half miles above McKeesport, on the Monongahela River. Finally, at the request of his father-in-law, Benjamin Fell, he purchased the old Fell homestead, the farm consisting of one hundred and sixty acres, and there he passed the remnant of his days. He lacked but a few days of being ninety-two years old at the time of his death, and his wife, who survived him about two years, was in her ninety-second year at the time of her death. They were both earnest and consistent members of the Fell Methodist Episcopal Church, and are "at rest" in the burial ground of that church.
