==NOT A DIRECT ANCESTOR==
''David Beels (1827)'' is not in my direct ancestry. He is of the Beels family of Salem Twp., Clarion County. An expected relationship to our direct line Beals family has not been established. The Beels family farm, in Ashland Twp. Clarion Co. but on the Venango Co. border, lay adjacent to that of our [[James Francis Beals]] of Richland Twp., Venango Co. PA. Both of these families (Beals and Beels) have examples in their records of both spellings being used.

David Beels, born 1827, was the only son of Daniel Beels and Elizabeth Painter.It appears that David was born on the Beels Hill homestead. He had at least one sister. David married Margaret Campbell in about 1853. Its unknown when they adopted their only child, John Howard Beels; he was born in 1857, so possibly that year. In 1860 they were living in Venango Co. Margaret's mother, Sophia Campbell, and younger sister Ellen were living with them, so although David is listed as head of household in the census, the couple may have been living in Margaret's family home. By 1870 they were back in Clarion Co. and David's widowed father was living with them. It is expected that David was back at the Beels Hill farm by that time. In 1880 & 1890 Margaret's sister Jane was living with them. By 1890 son John Howard Beels was no longer living in his parents' home, but had married and was living next door, possibly in another house on the Beels Hill farm.
