General Notes: Husband - Louis Erwin Beall

---

After several years of service in the postal and naval departments of the United States at Washington, D. C., he returned to Uniontown, Pennsylvania, where in company with Judge Nathaniel Ewing he founded the Hygeia Crystal Ice & Cold Storage Company, a prosperous company of which he became the head.

He attended the public schools and Madison college, Uniontown, Pennsylvania, Tuscarora academy (on the Juniata) and Washington and Jefferson college. His first business association was as clerk in a wholesale drug house at Findlay, Ohio, where he remained for two years. In 1871 he established a retail drug business in Uniontown in connection with Clark Breading which business was carried on for three years under the firm name of Beall & Breading. In 1874 Mr. Beall was appointed to a clerkship at Denver, Colorado, under the late Col. Thomas B. Searight, then Surveyor General of Colorado, and continued in that capacity until Col. Searight's successor was appointed three years later. Mr. Beall was then appointed to a position in the postoffice department at Washington, D. C., under Postmaster General David M. Key. After serving six years of this service he was appointed acting chief of bureau of contracts and supplies, Navy department, vice the paymaster general, who had been suspended. Mr. Beall's connection with the Navy department continued until 1890, when he returned to Uniontown to superintend the building of the Hygeia Crystal Ice and Cold Storage Company's plant of which he and Judge Nathaniel Ewing were the projectors and are the principal owners. This company carried on one of the leading industries of Fayette County.
He was a member of the Maryland Society, Sons of the American Revolution. He was a member also of the Metropolitan club of Washington, D. C., which included hundreds of the most distinguished social leaders in the United States. During Mr. Beall's connection with the Navy department he was closely associated in a business and social way with all of the naval officers who subsequently won distinction in the Spanish-American war, numbering among his close personal friends Admiral Dewey, Admiral Schley and others.
