James A. Beattie, born 20 October 1916 at Vincennes, Indiana, and living at La Porte, was married on 24 September 1938 to Ruth Benford; the memorial of his parents lists a son James Arthur Beattie, 1916-1991. His 1940 draft registration, made at Michigan City, gives the same birth date and place and the full middle name Arthur. Needs independent verification: his birth date and place are stated by the marriage record and by his own draft registration but not by a birth record, and his death on 25 November 1991 rests on a Social Security Death Index entry and a user-contributed memorial.[7]
NOTE: Needs independent verification: the death of James Arthur Beattie rests on United States, Social Security Death Index (secondary information) alone and has not yet been confirmed by a second source.
NOTE: Needs independent verification: his 1950 census residence rests on one index entry of undetermined information.
Ruth Benford
NOTE: Needs independent verification: Ruth’s birth year is derived from her stated age of 32 in the 1950 census index and has no other source; the 1938 marriage index names her Ruth Benford, her name before marriage.
