"Beula, or Beulah, Pennsylvania was a town that existed between 1797 and 1804 in Cambria County, Pennsylvania, founded by Welsh Minister Morgan John Rhys. The original settlers under the guidance of Rhys had bought the land from Dr. Benjamin Rush, in search of a home in the countryside. They originally planned on settling in Western Ohio, but it took too long to secure land in that region, so the Pennsylvania tract was settled upon. Two members of Rhys's party would go on to found Paddy's Run, Ohio. Rhys intended for Beula to be a cattle range. It is one of the few ghost towns mentioned as a part of Pennsylvania's Ghost Town Trail."Link
