Hi, I don't have much but here it is: I lived next to a Gwaltney family in the early 1949-50 in Eldorado's Beulah Heights section on the north side. I don't know their first names. They had a son who worked as a station agent for the L&N Railroad that then had a station in town. The old man seemed really old then, means probably 60s or 70s. I was probably 15 or 16. I have never understood why the name was pronounced "Gortney." Ernie Heltsley/Tucson

Talking with my Aunt this past Friday I was informed that William SHEA, son of Patrick SHEA was one time Mayor of Harrisburg. Can anyone verify this or where can I find information about mayors of Harrisburg? It would have had to been about the turn of the century 1895 to 1920 or there abouts. Another transplant to Pontiac from Harrisburg. Norm
