Hi, A suggestion has been made to add passenger lists to the jefferson co. site. A lot of us have immigrant ancestors and have been able to find them on a ships manifest or passenger list. While some of the people on the manifest may have never been to Jefferson Co., quite frequently, friends and relatives traveled together and settled together at least for a time. If anyone has imformation that they would like to contribute, I would be happy to create a page on the site. Just send it to me personally or you can send it to the list. I think that it will make a fine additon to the site, Terri -- +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Researching HUBBARD,LANAGHAN,JAMES,MENZEL,HAMROCK,GEARY, My Family Tree http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/1261/family/myfamily.htm Jefferson Co.

This sounds like a great idea!!! Bettye

What a great idea! Especially since I have no idea how my relatives got there. jan

Hi Julia, Sorry to say a cup of joe is not on the menu but a glass of iced tea was 10 cents. The most expensive item on the menu is Tender Boneless Strip Steak with French Fried Potatoes,Sliced Tomato & Cheese Salad,Hub Rolls & Butter with choice of Hot or Iced Tea or Coffee for a mere $1.60 . You could get a Breaded Veal Steak, Parsley - Buttered Noodles with Molded Fruit Salad for $1.10. This shows just how times have changed. I hope this gives folks how good things were back then when life was a little easier. John "Julia A. (Heaton)Krutilla" wrote: > > Hello John, > > Oh, . . . . . the Hub!

Hello John, Oh, . . . . . the Hub! Everyone still talks about missing it. I'm looking at a box from the 1960's with the fancy gold script, "The Hub", which contains some gold gloves and matching purse worn with gowns. Thinking of donating it to the Jefferson County Historical Museum. That restaurant you spoke of - was located on the mezzanine, a balcony between the 1st and 2nd floor. It was wonderful as you could watch the all the traffic and shopping below. The following is a rather dry description from pg. 146-147 of the Steubenville Sesquicentennial 1797-1947: The Hub -- Today this city's largest department store, The Hub opened in 1904 as a small men's clothing and furnishing business at the south west corner of Fifth and Market street. Its founders were S. J. and M. Anathan. The firm moved to the present location on the northwest corner of Fifth and Market in 1909 and by 1922 had expanded to include a 60 foot front on Market street. A new building and warehouse were added in 1924 completing the external expansion of the present store. The Hub has attained and maintained the largest retail business in the United States in a city of 50,000 and under. Present members of the firm are S. J. and M. ANATHAN, M. BAYERSDORFER, M. ANATHAN, Jr., and R. P. ANATHAN. <My mother made my brother and I a scrapbook on our vacation in the summer of 1962.

Trying to get information on ancestors of James C. Smith, born 1790-1800 PA or OH. He died abt 1833, Jefferson County, Ohio. I am also trying to get information on his wife Ann Green, born about the same time. Both died in Jefferson County, OH.

Hello Julia, My name is John Foster and I am an Aten descendant and I still have some info. from Steubenville when I was just a kid coming to Toronto to visit my Gr.Grandmother Flora Sallie Aten Wilson. My mother made my brother and I a scrapbook on our vacation in the summer of 1962. I have a news bulletin from WSTV dated July 12,1962 that was a weather report that was on a table at a restaurant in Steubenville the Hub I believe it was. I also have a lunch menu from the Hub Rest. dated July 12, 1961 year is wrong but the prices back them were just unbelievable. After seeing your post I had to get this stuff out and respond to you as we were at Stuebenville many many times in our youth. Thanks for stirring up a childhood memory. John M. Foster

Hello, Those of you who live outside the area might want to make a On-Line Tour of the Steubenville Murals. The www address is: http://www.microprosys.com/murals/ If you visit Steubenville, they have a tape available for purchase which you can play in your tape player of your car giving detailed information on background of these historical subjects of Jefferson County, OH. They also offer guided tours of the murals, a historical 15 room Mansion Museum (the same Jefferson County Historical Museum and Library), Animation Factory, Classic Car Museum, St. Pauls Episcopal Church founded in 1819. Happy Trails, Julia

Hi, I found out my mother's cousin, Roy Fisher worked in the Bradley Mine which was located between Dillonvale and Smithfield. there was another one around there called the Budd Mine I believe. Roy was born in 1901 and died in 1972. His wife was Goldie De Yarmon. Does anyone connect to these surnames? Or have more information on the coal mines in the area? Or does anyone know of a book that has any info in it about them? Thanks, Judie

A Tipple is what the coal goes up on (conveyer) to get it high enough to drop the coal into a coal car. The trains travel really, really slow, abt 2 mph, taking about 5 hours to load an average coal train (120 cars) , unless a car door comes open and dumps the coal on the ground, which happens. I had a friend who fell off a tipple about 20 years ago, and survived. They told her her fall was equal to falling from a 5 story building. Faith

The discriptions of a 'tippler' are so far from my FIRST thought that it is truly laughable. I grew up very far from coal country but am learning. If I understand correctly, he would release coal from a hopper ( or tipple ) into a railroad coal car for shipment. If wrong, please tell me. I found a map which shows the Georgetown Mine #3 just east of Rte 250 midway between Harrisville and Georgetown (Short Creek) in Harrison Co. Would Georgetown #12 be in the same area or closer to Adena ? #3 was the only one shown. Only know the name of one sister - Anna May - altho Isaac Waller had several brothers and 3 sisters. He was b. 31 Mar 1884 in Mt Pleasant to Oliver Waller and Mary Elizabeth McCartney and d. 27 Jan 1959 in Adena. He and his wife - Lillian Carter - lived in Short Creek Township, Harrison Co, in walking distance of Adena. They had sons - William, Floyd, Wilber, Albert - and dau - Dorothy. I haven't come across the name 'Roland' yet and I don't have any idea where the family was before Jefferson Co in 1884. Oliver was a coal miner also, as were most of the family men, so am inclined to follow that path for now and see where it leads. Mary - I'm more than a little interested since Isaac's mother had your name. Could there possibly have been a 'Mary Elizabeth' in your line born about 1860 ? krs

Can't say that I'm any kin of yours, but then again you know that. Just pulling your legos. Just wanted to say I never heard of that name before Borntrager Stef Hello All, I would like to know if anyone is working on (or has info on) the Frederick Everhart family of Jefferson County, Ohio. Frederick Everhart, Jr. married Elizabeth Borntrager on 30 Jan 1811 in Jefferson County. He was the son of Frederick Everhart, Sr. and his wife Nelly Lyst. Elizabeth was the daughter of Christian Borntrager. Frederick Jr. was born on 25 Jun 1790 in Northumberland Co., PA. Elizabeth was born on 19 Feb 1781 (not sure if it was PA but probable).

"Tipple operator" were the one's that controlled the separation of the coal and stone that came from inside the mine to the outside...The coal was dumped into the coal trains and the stone was taken to what they called the "stone dump"........My husband was a Car dropper for the years of 1970 to the 1980's until they turned to haulling coal by Big coal trucks and did away with trains......Car dropper was the guy who would ride the coal car's under the Tipple to be loaded......Then he would drop them down the line so the Engines would hook up to them and take them to there destination... Sarah from Georgetown area My husband still works the mines...Now in West Virginia.....No coal mines left in Harrison co,

Re: Tipple operator I knew of the tipples , coal mines etc as I was born & raised in Cadiz, Harr. Co OH. Lots of friends & relatives worked with coal production. As i recall, my dad used to say that a tipple operator had the best job, as he didnot have to enter the mine. My uncles & my Dad worked long, hard and dirty jobs. We even lost acousin to a big mine explosion. y foster brother, was trapped in a cave-in in 1954 or 55. His wife heard of the cavein on the tv news. What a shock!! I knew Wallers, but havn't heard of them for years. Maybe I'll be able to put on the thinking cap?
