Are you sure the town was New Emigsville? Could it have been Emigsville and they got a new Band? I looked up in my Gibson's History of York Co. and Emigsville had a town band in the 1880's. Then I tried the web for a listing of towns with bands and Emigsville came up as having a band but the page was no longer there. I grew up about 4 miles from Emigsville and I remember they would have an ox roast and I think there was a band that played. This was in the 1940's It was a small town in those days, ----- Original Message ----- From: "Darlene De Luco" <tichi@pacbell.net> To: <PA-YORK-GEN-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Monday, September 13, 2004 8:49 AM Subject: [PAYorkGEN] New Emigsville Band > This is my first posting to the list and I would be very appreciative > for any help or suggestions I may receive regards a band, possibly as > brass band, the community named New Emigsville had circa 1920.

I just remembered you were also curious about Lutheran churches in the area, I don't remember that there was a Lutheran church in Emigsville, it was a small village. There was and still is Christ Lutheran in Manchester about 4 miles away but I am betting they were mambers of one of the York Lutheran churches 4 miles away in theopposite direction. There was Christ Lutheran there which dates back to the 1700's, I can find the name of other Lutheran churches in York if you want this, I will need to do it by mail as my contacts there are not using computers ----- Original Message ----- From: "Darlene De Luco" <tichi@pacbell.net> To: <PA-YORK-GEN-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, September 14, 2004 6:54 PM Subject: Re: [PAYorkGEN] New Emigsville Band > I am betting you are correct about the name and the band.
