Jacob Alwine (1771-1854) and his Descendants Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania Duane F. Alwin Ann Arbor MI 48103 Part II Samuel Alwine, youngest son of Jacob and Catharine (Smith) Alwine, "was born on his father's farm in Salem township, Westmoreland County, Pa., February 27, 1820. After leaving the subscription schools of his youthful days, he learned the blacksmith trade in Greensburg, at which he worked for thirty-five years, at the same time carrying on wagon making. He then engaged in the livery business and contracted with the Southwest Pennsylvania Railroad (SWPRR) for some four years." He purchased the hotel known as the Richmond House "which he enlarged and improved until it (was considered) one of the best hotels in the county. In addition to this, he owned other valuable properties." This establishment would become known as the Alwine Hotel and would later be operated by his son-in-law Bela B. Zimmerman, whence it would be known as the Zimmerman House. [Endnote #5] Except for Samuel, who was well-known in the community of Greensburg, little is known about the children of Jacob and Catharine Alwine. Of the remaining children, we know the following: Catharine (b. Jan. 3, 1802) married Daniel Kuhn; John (b. Abt. 1805) married Anna Shuster; Jacob (b. 1812) married Lavina Kemerer; Theresa (b. April 20, 1815) married John Rush, April 25, 1841; and Sarah (b. unknown) married Henry Brauchler. [Endnote #6] The decennial censuses of Pennsylvania locate John, Jacob and Samuel in Hempfield Township and/or Greensburg from 1850 through 1880. Samuel Alwine was "married June 22, 1843 to Elizabeth, daughter of Samuel Allshouse, at St. Vincent's Abbey, Beatty Station, Pa. by Father Stillinger." They had six children, of whom only three reached adulthood: Cordelia Anne (b. Oct. 16, 1846), who married B.B. Zimmerman; Samuel Augustine (b. Aug. 5, 1853), a baker in Greensburg, who married Jessie Beuton Null; and Henry Foster (b. Dec. 21, 1862). As to his social achievements, the biographies of prominent people in Westmoreland County in the late 19th century described Samuel Alwine this way: "Owing to industry and business ability Mr. Alwine has succeeded in amassing considerable wealth. He is a staunch Democrat and served twelve years as burgess of the borough of Greensburg. He is a devout and useful member of the Catholic church and is one of the substantial citizens of the county." [Endnote #7] The Church of the Holy Sacrament was erected in Greensburg in 1848 adjacent to the Catholic cemetery which had been consecrated some twenty years earlier. One history of Westmoreland County includes the following passage in its coverage of the Catholic graveyard in Greensburg: "There are five graves of the Allwines, placed in an exact row, with exact intervals between them, with head- and foot-stones. Two of the graves have ordinary stones, and three, which are those of children, have marble head, foot and side pieces. They are remarkably well executed, and bear upon them simple but suitable inscriptions from Holy Writ. One bears the text, "Suffer little children to come unto me, for of such is the kingdom of God." Another bears the words, "Thy will be done," and the third a text from Job, in which he expressed his cheerful resignation under suffering, "The Lord gave and the Lord taketh away, blessed be the name of the Lord." [see Endnote #8] I have not visited this gravesite, nor do I know who else is buried there, although it is likely the children mentioned in this passage were the children of Samuel and Elizabeth Alwine. These three children -- Elizabeth Esther (b. Oct. 30, 1857), Francis Jacob (b. Feb. 13, 1859) and Catharine Josephine (b. April 5, 1861) -- all died in the summer of 1862. [Endnote #9] We can only speculate about the circumstances of their death, though it was likely that it was due to an outbreak of disease that might have affected the entire family. It must have been a tragic loss to a young family to have three children taken from them virtually all at once, and one can imagine the need for the comfort and assistance offered by the Biblical messages inscribed on the grave stones.

Hello cousins -- Here is something I've written on Jacob and Samuel Alwine who lived and died in Westmoreland County. I hope you find it useful. If you do, please cite the document by title and as copyrighted on the date of posting. It is coming in three parts, two of which are now finished. Cheers, Duane Jacob Alwine (1771-1854) and his Descendants Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania Duane F. Alwin Ann Arbor MI 48103 Part I The biographic material gathered here on Jacob and his son Samuel Alwine came from several sources. I began with Jerome Allwein's Genealogy of the Allwein-Arnold Families, published in 1902, and worked backward to the early days in Westmoreland County. I discovered a biographical entry for Samuel Alwine published in 1890 which could have been the source of the material in the Allwein manuscript. It was published in the Biographical and Historical Cyclopedia of Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania (pp. 40-41), compiled, edited and published by John M. Gresham & Co., Philadelphia, Pa. It also included information on his father Jacob. This narrative is reproduced verbatim in John Boucher's History of Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, vol. 1 (pp. 447-48), New York: The Lewis Publishing Company, published in 1906, as well as in Jerome Allwein's 1902 Genealogy. In what follows I have used quotation marks to set off the material appearing (with slight variations) in all three sources. These sources, plus my own research of other records, provide the basis for what follows. [Endnote #1] Jacob Alwine, the eldest son of Conrad and Catharine (Weibel) Allwein, "was born in Berks County, Pennsylvania in 1771 and reared on his father's farm. He went to Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania in his early days when Hannastown (formerly known as Hanna's Town) was yet the county seat and settled about Youngstown, and afterwards at Greensburg" seven miles to the west. "He followed agricultural pursuits and also distilled (whiskey) some in Winter. He believed in the principles of the Democratic party and was old enough to vote for Thomas Jefferson for President (in the election of 1800). He was a lifelong and faithful member of the Catholic Church, being among the first members of the Latrobe Mission." Jacob Alwine was married to Catharine Smith with whom he had seven children, of which the names of six are known: Catherine, John, Jacob, Theresa, Sarah, and Samuel. The birth and baptism of the child Catherine is recorded in Father Peter Helbron's Greensburg Register [Endnote #2], but except for Samuel, little is known about any of these children. After his wife's death, Jacob Alwine married Elizabeth Stevenson in 1835. They had no children. He died in 1854 at the age of eighty-three and was buried at Greensburg, Pennsylvania. His widow was recorded as living in Youngstown in the 1860 Census of Pennsylvania. Westmoreland County was formed out of Bedford County in 1773. The county seat was established originally at Hanna's Town in Hempfield Township but was moved in 1787 to Greensburg. The first settlers of Hempfield Township were nearly all Germans and came largely from the southeastern counties of Pennsylvania, although some came directly from Germany. [Endnote #3] Although we do not know precisely when Jacob Alwine migrated to Westmoreland County, it was no doubt well before the turn of the century. He is listed as living in Hempfield Township near Greensburg, Pa. in all decennial censuses from 1810 through 1850. Jacob and Catharine Alwine are listed in Catholic Trails West (vol. 2) as among the first Catholic families connected with the Latrobe Mission in Westmoreland County and one of those families with connections to Goshenhoppen (Bally) in Berks County, who came to the area in 1787-1790. The German Catholics of Westmoreland County resided primarily in Derry and Unity Townships, in and around Bairdstown, Derry, Latrobe, and Youngstown. The early Catholic congregation in Westmoreland County founded the parish of St. Vincent's located at Sportman's Hall near Latrobe and Youngstown. [Endnote #4] [To be continued] Endnotes 1. The name of this branch of the Allwein family in America is typically spelled Alwine, although in some historical materials one sometimes finds it written Allwine. 2.

Hello Cousins, I finally started to look at a book I bought back in 1979. It has a great deal of family names. It's like having decades of catholic school yearbooks into one. It also has group class pictures in a lot of years. The following is a piece I thought you would interested: To those Allwein's who went to school in St. Mary's, did you ever see this plaque? Nancy St. Mary's School Auditorium was dedicated to: "This Room was Donated by Mr. and Mrs. John M. Allwein To Be Their Memorial Gift To This School. R.I.P" "This was announced on Sunday for the following appeared in the Lebanon Daily News on Monday, March 7, 1927. $110,000 subscribed towards the erection of St. Mary's new convent and school building. $50,000 subscribed by Father Christ, $50,000 by John M. Allwein and $10,000 by Thompson brothers." Book: Catholic School Education St. Mary's Parish Lebanon, Pennsylvania, St. Mary's School 1859-1979. Page 55

Foster ---------James Philip Foster Cuz-n Nancy Lebanon Daily News Lebanon, Pennsylvania Tuesday, February 27, 2001 Local church, civic leader dies By JOHN LATIMER Staff Writer A lifetime resident of Lebanon county whose work helped preserve the Union Canal Tunnel and whose activities with the Boy Scouts prompted some to remember him as a hero died this weekend after a lengthy illness. John J. "Jack" Foster, 88, of Cornwall Manor and formerly of 720 Locust St., Lebanon, died of leukemia Sunday, Feb. 25, 2001, at home. He was the husband of Doris E. James Foster, with whom he celebrated their 64th wedding anniversary on Oct. 8. "Jack was what you could say a hero to me and so many young men," said Pete Silldorff, who met him when both where involved with what was then the Lebanon Boy Scout Council. "He was a hands-on person; he was a man you really admire deeply because of his well-rounded nature, his activities and interests." Born July 4, 1912, in Lebanon, he was a son of the late James P. and Irene Werth Foster. He spent all his working life as an employee of the Lebanon Steel Foundry, retiring in 1976 as purchasing manager with almost 48 years of service. He attended St. Mary's School, was a 1930 graduate of Lebanon High School and attended St. Vincent College and Seminary. An Eagle Scout, he remained active in the Scouting organization all his life as an adult volunteer. He served as scoutmaster of troops 11 and 33. He was awarded the Silver Beaver award from the local council and the St. George award from the Catholic Committee for Scouting. He recently received the 75-year veteran pin from the Boy Scouts of America. He participated in the Kodak Photo of the Century on July 4, 1999, at Independence Hall in Philadelphia to celebrate the millennium. He was the regional representative for people born on the fourth of July. A lifelong member of St. Mary's Church, he served as a Eucharist minister and lector. He was past president of the Holy Name Society and its secretary for many years. He was active in all the church's building projects, and for a long time was the parish historian. During World War II, he served with the Marines and spent time with them in the occupation of Japan. He was discharged with the rank of corporal. After the war, he became active in veterans' affairs. He was a charter member of the Father Henry B. Strickland Post 1193, Catholic War Veterans, served one year as commander and 35 years as adjutant and was a life member. In 1981, he was the recipient of their National Celtic Cross Citation Award. He was also a life member of the Lebanon VFW and the Lebanon County Detachment, Marine Corps League. He was past president of the Lebanon Advisory Council and the recipient of its Outstanding Service Award. He was a life member of the Lebanon County Historical Society, serving as its president on two different occasions. Through his leadership, the Old Tunnel was purchased, and work begun on its restoration. He was a charter member of Lebanon Council Knights of Columbus and was a Fourth Degree Knight, and life member. He was a past president of the local council of the Pennsylvania Catholic Beneficial League and served for a time as vice president of the Grand Council. He was considered a local historian and was the author of five books: "The Story Of The Assumption B.V.M. Church"; "A Priest For All Men," a biography of Father Henry B. Strickland; "The Circle L Story," a history of the Lebanon Steel Foundry; "On My Honor," the history of the Lebanon County Council, Boy Scouts of America; and "History Of The Eighth Field Depot And Eighth Service Regiment," his Marine Corps Regiment. "You can't say anything bad about Jack," recalled Earl Leiby, another past president of the Lebanon County Historical Society. "Back in 1950, when the historical first purchased the southern entrance to the canal and 8 acres of land, he was instrumental in the purchase and served as the first chairman of the tunnel committee," recalled Leiby. Silldorff said Foster was able to enjoy the results of a project he helped initiate when he took a barge ride through the canal tunnel after it was opened in September. "He really was absolutely thrilled to do that," said Silldorff. "I introduced him to everybody on the boat as the person responsible (for saving the tunnel). Silldorff also credited Foster for his efforts to preserve history, especially that of the local Boy Scouts. He was a bookbinder who bound records and articles pertaining to Boy Scout activity, he said. "He was one of kind," said Silldorff. "I keep wondering who is going to be the next one. Where do you find men like him?" Surviving, in addition to his wife, are daughter Anne Elizabeth, wife of Fred J. Arnold of Endicott, N.Y.; son James P., husband of Ann Marie Foster of Lebanon; sisters Dorothy Kovach, Mary Bleistein, Sara Marko and Hilda Fasnacht, all of Lebanon; 10 grandchildren and 12 great-grandchildren. He was preceded in death by brothers Charles, Joseph and Robert Foster. His funeral will be held at 9:30 a.m. Thursday at the Thompson Funeral Home, 126 S. Ninth St., Lebanon. There will be a viewing from 7-9 p.m. Wednesday, with recitation of the Rosary at 8. Mass of Christian burial will be celebrated at 10 a.m. Thursday at St. Mary's Church, 2 N. Eighth St., Lebanon. Interment will be in Holy Cross Cemetery.
