Dear Dr. Hively: Is it possible to view the applicable data on Alexander, Samuel & William Cobean, on line ? I have been unsuccessful in doing so. My main interest would be for dates, etc, particularly the initial purchase date, and when they first arrived in the Adams County area.

Jim, Here is a link you can reach from the Pennsylvania State Archives that I gave you and that shows Samuel Cobean's land in Franklin in 1819. You probably could use this information to order a copy of the land drecord if one still exists. http://www.phmc.state.pa.us/bah/dam/rg/di/r17-88WarrantRegisters/AdamsPages/ Adams4.pdf Lee Anne
