After com- pleting his college course he began business life as a hardware merchant at New Castle, Pennsylvania, in partnership with Fred Plumer, a relative of his mother. Later he sold his interest to his partner and began farming. He was very successful in his farm- ing operations, and continued for several years. He later returned to the hardware business, forming a partnership and trading under the firm name of Gilmore & Frey. They purchased the hardware stock and good will of Z. B.

(The Beall Line.)
The arms of the Beall family are: Three white bells on a blue shield. The above arms are the same as those accredited to Robert Bell, of Scotland, in the year 1427. These Bells are on the list of the annuity clans in West Marches in 1587; the Bells Tower is mentioned in the acts of parliament in 1481. The American ancestor, Colonel Ninian Beall, came from Scotland in Calvert county, Maryland, in 1655. On first coming to Mary- land he signed his name Bell and it would seem to have been carelessness of clerks in the record offices that caused the change to Beall as he afterward wrote it. In Maryland he soon bcame a leader in the military affairs of the province, which fact indicates previous experience in such matters. In 1676 he was commissioned lieutenant of Lord Baltimore's yacht or vessel of war, called the "Loyal Charles of Maryland." He took an active part in the revolution of 1689 led by Goode, who it is said called Major Ninian Bell his "Argyll", after the great Scotch covenanter. He was appointed major in 1689, and in 1690 was one of twenty-five commissioners for regulating affairs in Maryland until the next meeting of the assembly in 1692 when he was appointed high sheriff of Calvert county. The year following he was designated colonel, and
in 1697 was one of the board of commis- sioners to treat with the Indians. An act passed in 1699 reads: "An act of gratitude to Colonel Ninian Beall." After reciting his valuable services the act awards "75 pounds sterling to be applied to the purchase of three serviceable negroes."
In this same year he was appointed com- mander-in-chief of the Rangers. In 1696 he had taken the oath as member of the house of burgesses for Calvert county, and was also the first representative elected for Prince George county. Although he was an elder of the Presbyterian church he signed a peti- tion in 1696 to the king for the establishment of the Church of England in Maryland. Five years later he donated half an acre of land in Prince George county for "Ye erecting and building of a house for ye service of Al- mighty God." He always remained a loyal Presbyterian and kept the Presbyterians on the Patuxent together until the arrival of Nathaniel Taylor who came over with a con- gregation of Scots from Fifeshire in 1690. He was a man of wealth and devised to his children many thousands of Maryland's most fertile acres.
His son, Colonel George Beall, inherited part of the tract granted to his father called "The Rock of Dumbarton" on which the city of Georgetown is built, a town founded by Colonel Ninian Beall. "Scharf's History of Maryland" states that Colonel Ninian Beall about the year 1678 induced Presbyterians to settle around and upon the locality where the cities of Washington and Georgetown, D. C., now stand.
Colonel Beall died at the age of ninety-two years. He was buried on the home planta- tion, and when in recent years his remains were removed, owing to the growth of Georgetown, where his home was situated, it was found that he was six feet seven inches in stature and that his Scotch red hair had retained all its fiery hue. There is one gift of Colonel Ninian Beall to the church he loved that deserves especial mention. This was a handsome silver service made by a cel- ebrated London silversmith, in 1707, and presented to the Patuxent Presbyterian church. The service was sent to the church at Bladensburg, originally part of Patuxent parish, after the church at Upper Marlboro was abandoned. Part of the service has
468
PENNSYLVANIA
been lost, but in 1888 two chalices and a handsome tankard were in use by the church, which is now located at Hyattsville. So far as known this is the oldest silver service in the United States. He has a distinguished posterity-most of the alliance of children and grandchildren were with Scotch families who had settled in Prince George county, in the part called New Scotland. Two of his daughters married Magruders; another a Belt; another an Edmondson. Eliza Ridgely Beall, his great granddaughter, married Colonel George Corbin Washington, son of Colonel William Augustine and Jane (Wash- ington) Washington, fourth child of Augus- tine Washington, the elder half brother of President George Washington. Although born in Virginia, Colonel George Corbin Washington, who married Eliza Ridgely Beall, adopted Maryland as his honie and rep- resented the Montgomery county district three successive terms in congress. He died in Georgetown in 1854.
Seven members of the Beall family were officers in the continental army, three of them becoming members of the "Society of the Cincinnati." A grandson of Colonel Ninian Beall was the founder of the city of Cumber- land, Maryland.
Louis D. Beall, father of Mrs. Mary (Beall) Gilmore, and a direct descendant of Colonel Ninian Beall, was born in Allegheny county, Maryland, coming to Fayette county, Penn- sylvania, about 1840-45, and locating in Uniontown, where he died in 1871. He was a merchant for many years, later engaging in stock dealing. He was a man of high char- acter and strict integrity, a citizen of value to his town. His wife, Isabella B. (Frey) Beall, born in Allegheny, Maryland, died in 1874.
Children of Mr. and Mrs. Beall: 1. Clar- ence H., now living retired in Uniontown, Pennsylvania; married Elizabeth Smith. 2. Louis Erwin, after several years of service in the postal and naval departments of the United States at Washington, D. C., returned to Uniontown, Pennsylvania, where in com- pany with Judge Nathaniel Ewing he founded the Hygeia Crystal Ice & Cold Storage Com- pany, a prosperous company of which he is now the head; he married, in December, 1884, Harriet Morgan Clark; children: Louis Erwin, Jr., Priscilla McKeag and Edward
Clark. 3. Lilli, married (first) Lieutenant Lyons, (second) Colonel Wilson Vance. 4. Mary, of previous mention, married John Gil- more, whom she survives, a resident of Un- iowntown. She is a member of the Epis- copal church, and a lady highly esteemed for her many womanly virtues.
The name Bliss is not of frequent BLISS occurrence in English history. It is supposed the family was of Norman origin and that the name was origi- nally Blois gradually modified to Bloys, Blyze, Blysse, Blisse and in this country to Bliss. Sir John Burke's "Dictionary of Peerages" (page 74) states that the ancient house of Blois was founded in England at the coming of the Conqueror and that the founder was called Blois after the city of that name in France. Several English works on heraldry describe the coat-of-arms of one branch of the family thus: "Blisse or Blyse -Argent one a bend cottised, azure, three garbs or. Crest : A garb or guillinis. "A Display of Heraldry" (1724), p. 127, says: "He beareth, Sable a bend Vaire, between two fleur de lis or, by name of Bloys. This coat was granted or confirmed to Bloys of Ipswich in the county of Suffolk by Sir William Segar." This is identical (except in color) with that now claimed and used by the American family.
The American history of the family begins with Thomas Bliss, of Belstone parish, in the county of Devon, England. Very little is known of him except that he was a wealthy land owner, that he belonged to the class called Puritans. on account of the purity and simplicity of their forms of worship, that he was persecuted by the civil and religious authorities under the direction of Archbishop Laud and that he was maltreated, impover- ished, imprisoned and finally ruined in health and purse. He is believed to have been born in the decade, 1550-60, and that he died about the time his sons Jonathan and Thomas emi- grated to America, 1635-40.
(II) Thomas (2), son of Thomas (1) Bliss, was born in Belstone parish, Devonshire, England, about 1580-85. He married in Eng- land, 1612-15, Margaret to whom were born six children before coming to America. He endured the persecutions meted to his father and brother George and
469
FAYETTE COUNTY
finally was compelled to leave England. He sailed from Plymouth in 1635 with his younger brother George and their families and in due season arrived in Boston. He settled at Braintree, Massachusetts, later at Hartford, Connecticut, where he died in 1640. His widow Margaret (thought to have been Margaret Lawrence) was a woman of great force of character and after his death man- aged the affairs of the family with great pru- dence and judgment. She sold the Hartford property in 1643 and moved to Springfield, Massachusetts, thirty miles or more up the Connecticut river, a journey of seventy-five days through the forest. She purchased a large tract of land there, part of which is now Main street, Springfield, Massachusetts. She lived to see all her children grown up, mar- ried and settled in homes of their own except Hannah, who died aged twenty-three years. She died in Springfield, August 28, 1684, after a residence in America of nearly fifty years, forty of which she was a widow. Chil- dren: Ann, Mary, Thomas, Nathaniel, Samuel, of whom further; Sarah Elizabeth, Hannah and John.

(V) Rev. Daniel Bliss, son of Thomas (3) and Hannah (Caldwell) Bliss, was born in
Springfield, Massachusetts, June 21, 1715, died in Concord, Massachusetts, May II, 1764. He was graduated at Yale College in 1732, ordained to the ministry, March 7, 1739, and was pastor of the Congregational church of Concord from 1738 to 1764. He was a personal friend of the great Whitefield and like him was bold, zealous, impassioned and enthusiastic in his preaching. He was one of the most distinguished of the clergy, who in his day were denominated "New lights" by their opponents, and was several times before a council on account of difficulties in doc- trinal points. His last and most powerful sermon was delivered, March II, 1764, in the presence of Rev. Whitefield, and so im- pressed him that he remarked "If I had studied my whole life I could not have pro- duced such a sermon." A few days later Rev. Bliss sickened and died.
He married, July 22, 1738, Phoebe Walker, of Stratford, Connecticut, born 1713, died in Concord, July 2, 1797. Children: 1. Daniel, born March 18, 1740. 2. Phoebe, October 21, 1741; married Rev.

Shattuck's "History of Concord" "Mr. Ebenezer Hartshorn made Mr. Bliss coffin-five hundred broad headed coffin nails and five hundred small white tacks were put on the cover and gloves and jewelry were given (to the bearers) at the funeral."
(VI) Captain Thomas Theodore Bliss, son of Rev. Daniel and Phoebe (Walker) Bliss, was born at Concord, Massachusetts, May 21, 1745. He learned the trade of ship- wrights, which he followed in his earlier years. He held two commissions as captain in the American army during the revolution- ary war. One from the congress of Massa- chusetts bay, the other from the continental congress. The latter was signed by John Hancock and gave him command of a com- pany of artillery. He was a brave but un- fortunate officer. On the first campaign into Canada he was taken prisoner by the English at Three Rivers, with all his company, and was held a prisoner during the war. He
