Naturally my sister and I were quite excited to find this info just last year. That farm was deeded to Robert Morrow in 1850 and it is still in the Morrow family! As a matter of fact, my sister and I stopped at that farm in Sinking Valley last summer and met the present owner's wife...Her name is Karen....and I am frantically trying to leaf through my info to get her email so that I can send it to you. We thought it was amazing that the farm had been in the Morrow family since 1850...you should go up there some time. It's right outside Altoona and it's beautiful country. You can find out a lot of information at the Blair County Historical Society, 814/696-3492. They have a beautiful new geni library at 431 Scotch Valley Rd in Holidaysburg.
