This article is kindly brought to you by the personal injury attorneys in Bethayres, Pennsylvania, from Monheit Law. We enjoy providing educational articles that share the history of communities around our local law office in Jenkintown and hope you find this one interesting.
Bethayres is an unincorporated community a part of Lower Moreland Township in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania. The community is also considered a part of Huntington Valley because the Huntington Valley post office is located within Bethayres.
The SEPTA West Trenton Regional Rail line also runs through Bethayres at their station and provides residents with transportation to and from Philadelphia and other nearby areas.
The community dates back to the 1870s, when it received its name as the railroad added the land to its route. The name originated from a local woman by the name of Elizabeth Ayres, whose son happened to work at the Reading Railroad. Her son named the station after his mother, and the Bethayres neighborhood developed around it, especially near the crossroads of Welsh Rd and Huntingdon Pike.
Until they merged, Bethayres and its neighboring region, Huntingdon Valley, had individual post offices. Huntingdon Valley-Bethayres was the lengthiest postal name in the United States before it was altered to what it is now, Huntingdon Valley Post Office.
On January 3, 1989, the village gained news when Bucks County resident Glen Alton Barhight hijacked a SEPTA bus, setting off a chain of events that culminated in 15 individuals sustaining injuries, 15 automobiles being damaged or destroyed, and a police chase through five towns resulting in the bus colliding with a tree in Bethayres.

“I have been working since I was 14. I have probably held at least two dozen different jobs and I’ve seen people injured and hurt. One of the reasons I got involved with disability law is that I have a very good family friend who has been disabled his entire life, and I’ve seen how he’s struggled in order to keep working and try to work. When I was presented with the opportunity to get involved with what’s called “disability law,” I was really thrilled to be able to not only practice being an attorney, but helping other people who really need to know things about what their choices are, what they can do, and what their future may hold.
I am originally from Maple Glen, PA and is a life-long Eagles fan.
I have focused on helping individuals with their workers’ compensation, social security disability and long-term disability claims, as well as obtaining financial security for individuals who have had accidents.
As part of helping workers’ and their families, I have also been active in teaching continuing legal education courses to other attorneys, provide free seminars and webinars to the public on how to protect their rights, and I am active in various organizations such as the National Organization of Social Security Claims Representatives, the Injured Workers’ Bar Association and the Workers’ Injury Law & Advocacy Group.”
