POMEROY Although the emigrant ancestor of the Pomeroys of Port Royal, Pennsylvania, came to this country from Liverpool, England, where the family had been seated for several generations, he traced to French ancestry. The family was originally a noble one of France, the name Pomeroy signifying "Royal Apple". They were Protestants and, at the time of the massacre of St. Bartholomew, one of the family was apprised of his danger by the daughter of a French nobleman, in whose family he was teaching, and succeeded in making his escape to Ireland. Later the young lady joined him and they married, rearing a family, some of whose descend- ants became merchants and business men of Liverpool, England.
(I) From this branch came Thomas Pomeroy, a merchant of mod- erate means, located in Liverpool. who about 1730 converted his prop- erty into cash and came to America, settling near the present village of Roxbury. in Franklin county, Pennsylvania. He purchased and cleared a farm, and died about 1770, leaving a widow Margaret, and eight children. She died 1777. His sons were : Thomas (2), of whom further : John, George and Samuel: all except Thomas moving west.
(II) Thomas (2), son of Thomas (1), the settler, and Margaret Pomeroy, was born in Lurgan township, Franklin county, Pennsylvania, 1733, and so far as known was the first white child born in that town- ship. He became a prosperous farmer, remaining on the old homestead near Roxbury, of which he was the owner. He was a man of prom- inence and endured all the dangers and horrors of life on the frontier, losing his wife and two children at the hands of the Indians. He lived on the homestead all his life, and was a man of standing in his com- munity. He married a Miss Reynolds who, as stated, was murdered by the Indians, together with two of her children. A son who survived was Thomas (3).

was born near Roxbury, Franklin county, Pennsylvania, July 1I, 1801, died January 13, 1871. He had a limited public school education, but was of superior mind and by reading, self study and observation became well informed and prominent. He grew up at the home farm, but quite early in life was apprenticed to his uncle, William Reynolds, who taught him the art of tanning leather. After completing his years of service as an apprentice, he engaged in the same business for himself at Roxbury, later engaging in mercantile business and in lumbering. He invested his profits in timber lands near the North mountains, and also in farms near Roxbury, becoming one of the substantial men of the day and neighborhood. In 1844 he was elected commissioner of Frank- lin county, discharging the duties of that office with such credit that in 1851 he was elected associate county judge. He is described as a man "of popular manners, of unbending integrity, of considerable en- ergy of character and ardently attached to the fortunes of the Whig party". His record in private and public life was an honorable one and wherever known he was highly respected.
He married, March 18, 1832, Mary Ann, born May 30, 18II, second daughter of Colonel Stephen Wilson. In 1879 she moved to Shippens- burg, Pennsylvania, where she died in 1882. They were the parents of nine children, of whom William Culbertson Pomeroy was the youngest. Andrew A., fourth son of Hon. Thomas Pomeroy, was born and reared in Roxbury. He was an Abolitionist from his youth, and so outspoken was he that he was known as the "Young Abolitionist". He enlisted August 9, 1862, in Company H, 126th Pennsylvania Volunter Infantry, and except for a period of sickness following the battle of Antietam, was in active service until his death at the battle of White Oak Road, March 31, 1865. He was wounded, previously, in the battle of Chancellorsville, May 3, 1863. Under a second enlistment he was a private of Company I, 198th Pennsylvania Volunteers; was promoted first lieutenant, Sep- tember 14, 1864, and held that rank at his death. A brother of Lieu- tenant Pomeroy was a captain of the same regiment ; Stephen W. Pom- eroy and his brother John were both ministers of the Gospel. The Grand Army Post at Roxbury is named the Lieutenant A. A. Pomeroy Post, No. 295, in honor of the brave lieutenant.

He attended the public schools and worked in his father's store in boyhood, entering Tuscarora Academy at Academia, in Juniata county, when nineteen years of age, and thence was graduated in 1873. Later he supplemented the practical business experience gained in his father's store in youth, by a course in a business college. He began his banking career as clerk in the Juniata Valley Bank, at Mifflintown, and in 1876 was transferred to a branch of that bank located at Port Royal. He was appointed cashier of the branch bank, a position he filled until 1894. In the latter year he was prominently connected with the organi- zation of the Port Royal Bank, under the firm name of Pomeroy & Com- pany, an institution of which he was one of the first board of directors and the first cashier. He had a long and honorable career as a banker ; was a director of the Juniata Valley Bank of Mifflintown, and of the First National Bank of Middleburg, Snyder county, Pennsylvania, and an official of the Port Royal Bank until his death. He was prominent in organizing the First National Bank of New Bloomfield and was president at his death. He was an executive manager of high ability, was accurate and exact in every transaction, was a thorough master of the laws governing finance and gave to the safeguarding of the invest- ments of his depositors most scrupulous surveillance. His long. hon- orable and successful career won him a place among the leading men of the Juniata Valley, where his memory is warmly cherished.
He was a lifelong member of the Republican party and a potent factor in establishing the principles of that party in the Juniata Valley. He served in various township offices, and in 1882 was elected to the house of representatives, being one of the youngest members of that body, and was again elected, serving in 1904-06, performing his duties with fidelity and devotion to principle.

Samuel Gilbert Beaver, of Port Royal, Pennsylvania,
BEAVER descends in a direct line from good German stock. The family has been established in America one hundred and seventy-three years, and has added to the material progress and social and religious advancement of the state of Pennsylvania. The family has always been noted, even from the earliest times, for its honesty, sobriety, keen sense of justice toward its fellowmen, as well as its deep religious convictions and wide philanthropy.

HISTORY OF THE JUNIATA VALLEY
bert Beaver, emigrated from Germany in 1740. He probably landed at New York, and after looking around the new country finally decided to cast his lot with the settlers of Pennsylvania. He located among the pioneers of Chester county, purchased land, cleared and cultivated it and erected on it a comfortable house of unhewn logs, and here installed his family some years later. He took part in all of the Indian wars of that locality, and they were many, and proved the worth of his musket to the early settlers. He was appointed as one of the watch to keep an espionage on the red men, and so well did he perform his duty that he came to be regarded by the Indians as something supernatural and with an uncanny prescience of their plans. At the call to arms in 1776, though somewhat advanced in years, he enlisted in the continental army and fought under General Anthony Wayne, who always led his men where the danger was greatest. With him were five of his sons, two of whom were mere lads, and who lost their lives in defense of the independence of their country. At the cessation of hostilities he returned to his farm and again took up the peaceful vocation of farming. He died on the land that he first bought and is there buried. He married a native of Pennsylvania, it is thought, though her name is unknown. Chil- dren : 1. George, of whom further. 2. Jacob. 3. Abraham. 4.

(II) George (2), son of George ( I) Beaver, the revolutionary war patriot, and himself a soldier in the same war, was born May I. 1755, in Chester county, Pennsylvania. He was a member of a corps of rangers organized for the purpose of protecting the scattered pioneer families from the Indians. He was a farmer and helped reclaim from the wilderness the fertile acres which he cleared, cultivated and on which he built a house of logs. He married Catherine Keefer, the daughter of a neighbor.

He engaged in the mercantile business in Pfoutz Valley, where he died August 25, 1849, greatly mourned by his congregation, neighbors and friends. He married Eliza- beth Gilbert, who died before him.

He was born in an old log house on the farm he owned at time of his death, and which is known far and wide as the Beaver homestead. When he was fifteen years old he helped to carry the brick for the house which supplanted the old log house. He was educated in the common schools of the county, which were held for only three months of the year, and his attendance was curtailed by his having to leave before the session was finished to work on the farm. He remained at home until he was twenty-one when he was engaged as salesman in the store of his brother-in-law, at Millers- burg, Dauphin county, Pennsylvania. After his marriage he lived on the home farm for three years, and then bought one hundred fertile acres in Perry Valley, which he cultivated for twelve years, bringing it to a high state of productiveness. He was a Republican and held the political offices of county auditor and school director. He was connected with the Methodist Episcopal church, but at the time of his death was a member of the United Brethren church. He contributed generously to the cause of religion and benevolence throughout his lifetime. After the death of his wife he moved to Millerstown and there lived the remainder of his life, retired.

He moved to Port Royal in 1907 and established a department store with a stock of about six thousand dol- lars. By keen insight, a close and careful management, a desire to please his patrons of all classes and kinds, he has succeeded in more than doubling his capital invested in the business. He is eminently a successful business man and a live wire in his town, commanding alike the respect and admiration of his fellow townsmen. In politics he is a Republican, and has been school director for three years. He is one of the substantial, thorough-going men of his community, and it is confi- dently predicted of him that his past successes will be duplicated in the future.

He married, May 17, 1895, Laura Jane Seiber, a native of Juniata county, daughter of Abraham and Hen- rietta Seiber. Children: Paul Seiber, Mary Henrietta, Chester Lloyd. Margaretta, died in infancy.
(The Kipp Line).
Holland contributed the Kipps toward the building up of America. The immigrant progenitor of the Pennsylvania family of that name most probably came direct from Amsterdam and settled in New York state with other Hollanders. There he lived, married, reared a large family and died. One of his descendants was Peter, of whom further.

of the township until he was fourteen years of age, then for another year the McAlisterville school. During the winter of 1866-1867 and 1868 he taught school, and in 1869 entered the State Normal School at Bloomsburg, continuing two years. The winter of 1871 he taught school at Gallion, Ohio, and then decided to prepare for the profession of medicine. He was successful as a teacher, although young, but gave promise of attaining distinction had he remained at that profession. In the spring of 1872 he began the study of medicine under Dr. H. R. Kelley, of Gallion, then entered the medical department of the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor, attending lectures there for one year. In 1873 he entered Bellevue Hospital Medical College (New York), whence he was graduated M. D., March 1, 1874. In April of the same year he began the practice of his profession, locating at Port Royal and forming a partnership with Dr. G. M. Graham. This association continued two years, when Dr. Shelley withdrew and established in practice at Harris- burg, Pennsylvania, remaining eight months. He then returned to Port Royal and resumed practice and is now (1913) the oldest medical prac- titioner in Juniata county, in point of years of continuous practice. His practice has always been general in character, embracing both medi- cine and surgery. He has always had a large practice and is well known for his skill in both diagnosis and treatment. He is a member of the State Medical and Juniata County Medical societies, well known and honored in both. He has always borne his full share of public re- sponsibility and in town and church has labored for the cause of morality and education.
