born 20 July 1815 in Pennsylvania; died 1 May 1910 in Waterford (now called Boucher, about 3 miles east of Ligonier, near Oak Grove, see Map 7), Ligonier Township, Westmoreland County; married THOMAS LEMON BEAM; born 15 September 1803 in Pennsylvania; died 19 March 1877. 1931 Thomas's first wife was Rachel Clifford, an aunt of Jane Ann (Riddle) Beam. See Rachel Clifford (#235) for more information on Thomas Lemon Beam.
Thomas and Jane Ann (Riddle) Beam and family lived in Ligonier Township. 1932 Thomas was listed as a blacksmith in 1850 and a retired farmer in 1870, at which time a Winters Keffer, age 9, was enumerated with Thomas, Jane, William and Hannah. Thomas died in 1877, and in 1880 Jane was living alone in Ligonier Township. 1933 In 1900, Jane, as head of household, was living with her widowed daughter-in-law Lavinia Beam (who had married John Taylor Beam), and Lavinia's daughter Grace Beam. 1934 In 1910, Jane R. Beam, age 94, was living with daughter Martha Graham, born circa 1859. 1935 In 1910, Lavinia Beam, age 62, was living alone in Westmoreland County. 1936
Except for federal censuses, information on Thomas and Jane Ann (Riddle) Beam comes mainly from Ancestry World Tree Project (Ancestry.com): “Reed/McDaniel Family,” by Esther Endecott, updated 2 January 2002; and from a manuscript received from Esther Endecott in March 2004. Esther credits as her major source her aunt Jewel McDaniel (see under #1858), who did much research on the Beams and the McDaniels and turned all her material over to Esther.

Photo 13. Lemon Thomas Beam (#671) (1834-1889). From Boucher (1918b), page 117.
Lemon T. was a medical doctor. There is a biography of Lemon Thomas Beam in Boucher (1918b), pages 117-118, with Lemon's photograph on page 118.
" Dr. Beam was a man of unusually fine personal appearances and coupled with that was a most charming manner. No one could talk more gracefully, either to the weak or strong, than he … [in medicine] he was of the 'Eclectic' school in Pennsylvania. " 2017
Lemon T. Beam, age 55, perished in The Johnstown Flood of 1889; also dying in the flood was a Charles C. Beam, age 4. Since both Lemon and this Charles were listed from Market Street, Johnstown, at the time of the flood, presumably living at the same address, and both were buried in Grandview Cemetery, Johnstown, I am tentatively listing Charles as Lemon's son by his second marriage. Also perishing in the flood was W. C. Beam, M. D., age 35, and Mrs. Clara Beam, age 32, both of Locust Street, Johnstown, 2018 and both buried in Grandview Cemetery, Johnstown. Apparently Roscoe Beam, age 2, of Locust Street was their son, he also died in the flood, "not known to have been found." The W. C. Beam would have been William C. Beam, half brother of Lemon T. Beam, see under Rachel Clifford (#235).
From Willis Fletcher Johnson's The Johnstown Flood: 2019
No man returns from the valley of death with more horrible remembrance of the flood than Dr. Henry H. Phillips, of Pittsburg. He is the only one known to be saved out of a household of thirteen, among whom was his feeble old mother and other near and dear friends. His own life was saved by his happening to step out upon the portico of the house just as the deluge came. Dr. Phillips had gone to Johnstown to bring his mother, who was an invalid, to his home in the East End. They had intended starting for Pittsburg Friday morning, but Mrs. Phillips* did not feel able to make the journey, and it was postponed until the next day. In the meantime the flood began to come, and during the afternoon of Friday the family retired to the upper floors of the house for safety. There were thirteen in the house, including little Susan McWilliams,[*] the twelve-year-old daughter of Mr. W. H. McWilliams, of Pittsburg, who was visiting her aunt, Mrs. Phillips; Dr. L. T. Beam, son-in-law of Mrs. Phillips; another niece, and Mrs. Dowling, a neighbor. The latter had come there with her children because the Phillips house was a brick structure while her own was frame. Its destruction proved to be the more sudden and complete on account of the material.
The water was a foot deep on the first floor, and the family were congratulating themselves that they were so comfortably situated in the upper story, when Dr. Phillips heard a roaring up toward the Cambria Iron Works. Without a thought of the awful truth, he stepped out upon the portico of the house to see what it meant. A wall of water and wreckage loomed up before him like a roaring cloud. Before he could turn back or cry out he saw a house, that rode the flood like a chip, come between him and his vision of the window. Then all was dark, and the cold water seemed to wrap him up and toss him to a house-top three hundred yards from where that of his mother had stood. Gathering his shattered wits together the Doctor saw he was floating about in the midst of a black pool. Dark objects were moving all about him, and although there was some light, he could not recognize any of the surroundings. For seventeen hours he drifted about upon the wreckage where fate had tossed him. Then rescuers came, and he was taken to safe quarters. A long search had so far failed to elicit any tidings of the twelve persons in the Phillips' house.
*According to the "List of Victims" in McCullough (1968), page 271: Mrs. Jane Phillips, age 68, Market Street, buried in Grandview Cemetery, Johnstown. Also in the "List," page 283: Susie McWilliams, age 13, Pittsburgh "not known to have been found." For more information on The Johnstown Flood, see the section "Hugh McCune Clifford and The Johnstown Flood of 1889."
Pamelia (Hargnett) Beam was a daughter of John Hargnett (born 13 April 1811, died 13 June 1896) and John's first wife, Susan (Armor) Hargnett. 2020 After the death of Susan (Armor) Hargnett, in 1848, John Hargnett, married Euphemia McDonald, born circa 1830 or 1840, 2021 died 19 January 1908. John and Euphemia had two children, Wilhemina Platt Hargnett, born circa 1858, married John D. Graham, MD; and May Idona Hargnett, born circa 1864, married John Newton Boucher, one of the authors of Old and New Westmoreland, see References, and brother-in-law to Hugh McCune Clifford (#718) and Edward Marcellus Clifford (#1256). 2022 In 1870 and 1880, John, Euphemia, Minnie and May were living in Ligonier Borough, where John Hargnett was listed as a dry goods merchant in 1870, 2023 and in 1880 as a retired merchant. 2024 Both John and Euphemia Hargnett are buried in the Ligonier Valley Cemetery.
