Hello group, Some years ago, I was directed to the Russell Index for Allegheny County, PA but I haven't worked with it since and at the time I had some difficulty maneuvering within it. I now have need to use it again, but I can't seem to even locate the correct entry point. This is the url that I have: https://dcr.alleghenycounty.us/welcome.htm Could someone please direct me to the correct portal? Kind Regards, Diane

>Thanks Nan, I am familiar. Have lived here all my life. Know the area and Brownsville Rd. well, The house in question is long gone. Over 50 years. Remember the house from when I was young. A church is there now. The steps to the farm house next door to the Phillips house, are in the backyard of my family home. Remember my father asking for and being given them. He loaded them in the trunk of the car as my brother and I watched. I was about five. Helen Hi Helen, > I am not familiar with the area.

Just to confirm: you are correct that Hannastown, also in Westmoreland County, was once the county seat. It now survives as a restored Old Hannastown Village and is a popular tourist stop. Hahntown is another town/village in Westmoreland County. It has no p.o. of its own, I believe, and mail would come through the Irwin 15642 post office. I cannot think of any area near Braddock with a name similar to Hahntown, but if I hear of anything, I'll write.
