ROBERT BEATTY
( Submitted by sameelee 2016)
"Robert Beatty, of Marbletown, Ulster County, New York, was the eldest child of John Beatty, of the same place, and of his wife, Susanna, daughter of Honorable William Asfordby and Martha Burton. No record of his baptism appears on the Register of the old Dutch Church of Kingston. The date of his birth can be closely approximated, however, from the fact that his parents were married in November, 1691, while William Beatty, their second child, was baptized June 9, 1695.
"Robert Beatty was a member of the Marbletown Infantry from 1715 to 1717, and probably much longer. In 1728 he was one of the Freeholders of Ulster Comity at Marbletown. In 1721 he held the office of fence viewer* at Marbletown. He was an executor of the will of his brother, Charles, made March 20, 1726, and proved March 11, 1727.
"In 1719 he was married to Bata, daughter of Joris Middag (George Middagh or Midday) and the latter's wife, Marritje Martissen Van Ysselsteyn, of Marbletown. When his father's will was made, the following year, Robert Beatty had his home upon a portion of his father's property, which was bequeathed and confirmed to him by the terms of the instrument, as follows:
"I give unto my Eldest son Robert upon Consideration of my first born son one milch Cow Likewise that Certain piece of land he now lives on or so much as shall fall to his Share when all the wood land is divided. Beginning at a pine tree neare to the East End of a small swamp in the pine woods then along my bounds to Rochester highway as my bounds runs To the bounds of Thomas Cock & farther so as my bounds runs to the bounds Daniell Brodhead then along his bounds to an old marked pine tree & from thence with a strait line to the first station and if said Robert has too much for his part or share with the Rest of my Children he shall Loose it at the south west End or if he have too little he shall have it in the pine woods at the northwest End between the bounds of the said Daniell Brodhead and the swamp where the first began at the same breadth to make it a Complement with the Rest."
"No record of the will of Robert Beatty, if he made one, has as yet been found. His death occurred some time between August 15, 1736, when his youngest child, Jane Beatty, who subsequently married Major Abraham Haff, was baptized, and June 20, 1742, when his mother made her will, in which she speaks of her son Robert Beatty Deceased.
"In this instrument she also mentions the names of his six children, John, Maria, Susanna, George, Margaret and Jane; while we also have the record of the baptism of all of these except Susanna."
It is believed that Robert Beatty may be buried in the churchyard of the old Dutch Reformed Church in Kingston where only a limited number of burial records have been found.
* A Fence Viewer is one of the oldest appointments in New England. Robert administered fence laws by inspecting new fence and settling disputes between neighbors.
