Hello List, I have new information since posting on February 24th. The three children who I believed died on the same day of February 28, 1898, Alfred, Elizabeth and Leah Jones, died on different dates. I believe they are the children of Thomas H. and Rachel Jones. According to the City of Scranton Death Index, February 28, 1898 was the date they were removed from Washburn Street Cemetery and reburied to Dunmore Cemetery. They are actually buried in Thomas H. Jones section of the cemetery. Elizabeth Jones - died March 14, 1871 Alfred T. Jones - died March 18, 1872 Leah Jones - died March 10, 1873 It seems a coincidence they all died in March. I am still looking for cause of death. It did not appear in the Death Index. If a search is tried in the Scranton newspapers, the correct dates are above. Thank you to all who have responded. You have helped me solve a great deal of this mystery. Gratefully, Carolyn

His life was practically all spent in East Mahoning township. He was married (first) to Rosetta HAMILTON, on March 12, 1891, and her death occurred February 14, 1904.

From childhood he was a faithful attendant and in later years served as superintendent of the Sabbath School or teacher and for many years a ruling elder. He was interested in music, being a song leader before the adoption of instrumental music in the church. As a citizen he stood for that which makes a true man--temperance, honesty and education--serving as school director for many years. His unswerving fidelity to his Bible and the truths contained therein marked him as a man of the faith, who, with the Psalmist, could say: "I delight to do Thy will."

Hello, new to list, joined in hopes of cracking a mystery! Looking for an Obit/Death Date/Info for two folks, most likely found in Northumberland County, PA, or possibly in the surrounding counties of Snyder, Montour, Union, Columbia, Dauphin, Lackawanna, Columbia, Carbon or Schuylkill, Pennsylvania 1.) Agnes Lachowicz My GGgm was Agnes Lachowicz/Lachowitz/Liachowich/Liachowitz (possibly buried as Agnes Orlowski/Orluskie/Orluski but I don't think so); she was living at the time of the 1900 Census (recorded as Agnes Orluskie) but did not appear on the 1910 Census, so death date would be 1900 or later. 2.) John Orluski (Jr.?) Looking for a John (Jr.?) Orlowski/Orluskie/Orluski, death is anytime after Oct. 1918 when he signed my Ggm's death certificate - no one in the family knows if he was a son or nephew. For that matter, there are no facts to date as to who were additional Orlowski family then, but I think finding this person might provide a clue! Their obits, or any info or leads on these two folks or their surnames will be joyfully welcomed! Many thanks!
