11 "Although Abel says in his will that "my six sons" (including Stephen) "have already received from me in lands what I intended to give them", there is no record of Stephen having received any land from his father. However he did buy 200 acres from George Kniffen at Waldec, Annapolis Co., (between Bear River and Clementsport) in 1817. His wife was from that area. There were ten children in the family, 6 sons and four daughters. About 1845 four of the sons and one daughter migrated to Erin Township, Ontario, north west of Toronto and were among the early settlers of that area. Later two sons moved on to Peck, Michigan, north of Detroit. One son, Edward, was a sea captain who lived near the mouth of Bear River. Another son, Elijah, also lived in that area and fought in the American Civil War eventually dying of wounds received in that conflict." (From the book "The Beals Family of Annapolis County Nova Scotia" by Donald W. Beals).
Contrary to the above, George Fletcher Beals was already living in Erin at the time of his marriage in 1840 according to his marriage registration. Based on his obituary it is reasonable to assume he came to Ontario as early as 1838, not 1845 as indicated above. Of course the various siblings could have migrated at different times.

13 "In 1851 when Delilah was only four years old, her mother died and a short time afterwards Delilah also passed away. Rachel was the first person to die in the Falkland Ridge and Delilah the second. As there was no cemetery in the settlement at the time, they were taken to Springfield for burial. When Mrs. Fry died, a bier was made and she was carried by four men, while at intervals four others relieved them. She was buried in the old cemetery at Springfield, on the north side of the present Baptist Church, but no marker or trace remains of the early interments in that portion of ground ".

uncle Isaac and Catherine Kent.

The following is taken from a "Town of Blain Centennial" booklet prepared in 1974:

In 1884 Edwin Beals, a brother of William Beals, moved from Nova Scotia [Brookfield, Queens Co.] to Blain. With him he brought his wife, seven children and his father and mother, Isaac and Mary Beals. The journey from N.S. to Houlton [Maine] was made by train and from Houlton to Blain the women and children travelled by stagecoach, the men and household goods travelling by oxcart. Edwin Beals purchased the property now occupied by Roger Williams. On this property he, with the help of his brother, William, built a new house. About three months later the house was destroyed by fire. With courage and fortitude the two brothers built another house. From time to time additions and improvements were made to accomodate the family. Three more children were born to the Edwin Beals family making a total of ten children, only one of which is now [1974] living, Mrs. Mabel Crum, of Blaine. Edwin Beals was a stone mason by trade but he became a prosperous farmer and continued to operate his farm with the help of two of his sons, Lee and Lyle, until his death on December 24, 1912, at the age of 67. The Beals family was very active in civic affairs and were both instrumental in the building of Blaine Baptist Church. Many descendants are still living in the Town of Blaine.

43 After graduating from Acadia University in 1919, Carlyle earned an M.A. from the University of Toronto in 1923, Ph.D. from Imperial College of Science and Technology in London, Eng., in 1926 and D.Sc. from London University in 1934. In 1927 he joined the staff of the Dominion astrophysical observatory at Victoria, B.C. and became the Dominion Astronomer in Ottawa in 1947.

The specialty study of Dr. Beals concerned the physical nature of the stars. His ten year research project on the Wolf Rayet group of stars revealed that they were the hottest discovered up to that time. Another project was the study of inter-stellar matter, or the gaseous matter in the space between the stars. He pioneered spectral techniques for the study of this material. He was also the first to conduct a systematic survey of the Canadian Shield for craters like those on the moon. This lead to establishing Canada as the leading authority in such studies, which grew in importance with the exploration of space and trips to the moon.

Dr. Beals was awarded many honours for his work. He received an honorary D.Sc. from Acadia and the University of New Brunswick and in 1969 was made a Companion of the Order of Canada. He received the highest award of the Royal Astronomical Society of Canada in 1952, the Gold Metal of the Royal Society of Canada in 1957, the Gold Metal of the Professional Institute of the Public Service of Canada and the Leonard Metal of the Meteoritical Society in 1966. He was the only Canadian to serve as president of the American Astronomical Society (1962-64).

Mrs. Fry had formerly been Rachel McNayr, a sister of Thomas, and it was a mutual pleasure for the two families to become neighbours. William Fry's daughter Delilah was born in 1847 and this was the first birth on the Ridge. "
