Early Years
William H. Beatty was born in a small village called Monclova, Ohio. He was born on February 18, 1838. His earlier years were spent in Kentucky due to the fact that that is where his parents were originally from, and they decided to move back to their native state. In the year of 1853, his parents once again decided to move, but this time to California. His father then became a successful lawyer, and his expertise in law gave William an advantage in his educational process. When he turned eighteen, he was more than ready to begin college. He spent his college years studying at the University of Virginia.
