Beall is the name of one of Lindsay’s most prominent families. The Beall family ran one of the town’s jeweller shops.
The Beall Jewellery Firm dates back to the time when Thomas Beall had a small business outlet at Oakwood and became a pioneer resident of Lindsay upwards of 150 years ago. After they moved to Lindsay, the Beall’s business prospered, and their wealth grew.
In fact, the Beall’s wealth grew such that they were able to build a beautiful mansion on Albert Street with numerous rooms, beautiful trees, and even an outbuilding for the groundskeeper to live in. In St. Paul’s Anglican Church on Russell Street, a gorgeous stained glass window memorializes their name and their stories.
the Bealls were one of the central families in Lindsay until the 1970s, when several members passed away, and the children pursued their lives elsewhere.
