Miss Ruth Beach

Ruth I. Beach was the only child of Samuel and Harriet Beach, born on February 14, 1902. Samuel Beach was employed by Feick Builders for many years. Ruth is pictured below as a young child.



During her years at Sandusky High School, Ruth Beach followed the Commercial Course. She graduated in 1920. This is a photo of her with her graduating class.


Here is a photograph of Ruth with her automobile.


In February of 1964 Ruth Beach retired from the Citizens Banking Company, after having worked there for forty four years. Miss Ruth Beach passed away on June 18, 1975. She was buried in the family lot at Sandusky’s Oakland Cemetery.

Following the death of Ruth Beach, several photographs from the Beach family were donated to the Sandusky Library Archives Research Center. If you have vintage family photographs or documents from the Sandusky or Erie County area, consider donating them to the Sandusky Library Archives Research Center for future generations to enjoy.
