Geologist, researcher, scientist, historian.
Husband of Caroline Hornbrook Evans of Evansville.
Grandson of Gen. James Clifford Veatch (1819-1895).
Born in Evansville, Indiana, he grew up in Jacksonville, Florida; lived in Trinidad 1910-11; Colombia, 1913; and England 1914-1919; also France; Algeria; and Baltimore, Maryland, and spent the last 20 years living in New York. For more than two decades he was chief geologist for Sir Weetman Dickinson Pearson (1856-1927), 1st Viscount Cowdray, who "controlled one of Britain's largest fortunes as chairman of the S. Pearson & Son conglomerate" (NY Times, Jan. 21, 1995), including the Pearson & Son Petroleum Company, Mexican Eagle Petroleum Company, etc. (See British Lions and Mexican Eagles (2011) by Paul Garner.) See also Charles F. Haanel (1866-1944), president of the Mexico Gold and Silver Mining Company, author, Rosicrucian, Freemason and Shriner.
Dr. Veatch was a brilliant intuitive researcher whose calculations earned not only one of the world's great fortunes for Lord Cowdray but whose own personal oil leases and investments have generated more than $800 million dollars to date. (Burke's American Families; Burke's Landed Gentry, 16th edition, 1939.)
Dr. Veatch's lifelong interest in the Veatch family history was derived from his grandfather, General James Clifford Veatch, who heard stories from his own grandfather, born when grandchildren of the original immigrant from Scotland, Sheriff James Veitch, were still living.
Dr. Veatch continued the Veitch genealogical research begun by his grandfather and continued it until his death without publishing it. His cousin Laurence Guthrie afterward picked up the manuscript and continued his research until his death in 1972 after which the manuscript was published in 1974 as "We Veitches" by Laurence Guthrie.
16 Apr 1902: Arthur Clifford Veatch married Caroline Hornbrook Evans (17 Apr 1870-4 Oct 1953) at Grace Presbyterian Church in Evansville, Indiana. She was a daughter of Samuel George Evans and Anna Louise Hornbrook; granddaughter of Philip Hornbrook and Mary Sampson; great-granddaughter of Stephen Sampson & Mary Morse.
She became Episcopalian and after the death of A.C. Veatch she joined the North Shore Unitarian Church. Arthur Clifford Veatch had left his wife a legacy of oil leases worth several million dollars which she bequeathed upon her death to the Unitarian Church which has received since that time an estimated $800 million from the leases.
