were born; seven sons and two daughters lived to be grown.  Charles Beaven,
Sr., was born November 2, 1796, east of St. Mary's  and was one of the
leading and substantial farmers, owning about 1,000 acres, and a large
number of slaves.  In his early days he sold goods, and died February 8,
1869.  His parents, Edward and Ellen (Green) Beaven, both natives of
Maryland, were among the first settlers in Kentucky, and came with his
brother, Col. Charles Beaven, who acquired his title during the Revolution.
The Beavens were all substantial farmers and slave-holders and of English
origin.  Mrs. Cecily (Luckett) Beaven, was born in the western part of
Marion County, January 14, 1800, and died February 6, 1883.  She was a
daughter of Hezekiah and Elizabeth (Hamilton) Luckett, who came from
Maryland with the first Catholic settlers of Marion County.  Mr. Luckett
was a substantial farmer and slave owner, and died in November, 1859;
Charles Beaven, Jr., was born within two miles of St. Mary's, Marion
County; received his education at St. Mary's College, was reared a farmer
and in October, 1861, enlisted in Company D, Tenth Kentucky Federal
Infantry; was in all engagements in which the regiment participated, except
Jonesboro, Ga., and Missionary Ridge, and received a wound in the shoulder
at Chickamauga.  He was discharged December, 1864, at Louisville, after
which he returned home and engaged in farming, which he has followed ever
since.  He was united in marriage October 15, 1867, to Susan M., daughter
of E.H. and Alathaise (Spalding) Mattingly, of Marion County.  Mr. Beaven
after his marriage located where he now resides, one mile south of St.
Mary's Station, on 150 acres, but now owns 265, with a fine residence and
outbuildings. Mr. and Mrs. Beaven are consistent members of the Roman
Catholic Church.
