March 24, 1803, d. Feb. 2, 1858, so the dates do line up for these folks to be Catherine's parents. Another FRY couple on whom I have some information is John d.

Hi Dan, I am sorry I do not share any of your surnames but wondered... if you are not too tired of doing lookups in your Armstrong book, I would certainly appreciate your checking out my Armstrong County family. Everytime I find a census on the net the list only goes down to the V's and then the screen says the list is too long to be shown completely - drat! I am looking for Armstrong W & Y's.. I am a direct descendant of Rosa E. HEILMAN, b 1862 and John Wal WINGARD b. 1855. Issue: Lillian Ione Wingard Ina Gail Wingard Vonnie L. Wingard They lived on a farm outside Leechburg not too far from Kittanning and if they had had a few sons this would be a lot easier for me. I have done well on the Rosa Heilman famly in Armstrong and got back to Peter b 1749, but I have zip on John Wal and his WINGARD family. Wal's mother may have been a SCHAEFFER...but that too is uncertain.....unless a Wingard shows up in the index married to one. Vonnie was my grandmother but died when my dad was four years old. He was raised by his grandparents and later is aunts. I did find (before the lousy list ran out) A Wingard on the 1820 census for Allegheny Co., PA but no other family was listed. Just for reference, other names associated with Rosa & John Wal in Armstong at that time were: HARTER /YOUNT / ISEMAN and a couple of Rosa's siblings married into the KING family. One sister Lizzie married two of them...Daniel first then Alex...wild and crazy girl... Thank you, Dan in advance for your kindness and what a lovely thing to share your gift of that that book with we who are flopping around out here (grin) Monette

Hi, I have Charles Flick b. 1858 m. to Irene Hooks b. 1861. Do you have these in your data base? I have 1800 descendants of Thomas Hooks who was in Armstrong Co before 1800. ARe you interested in exchanging information? Kathy Hayden

Hi Patti....I have a Elizabeth FRANKLIN married to Clayton BOWSER (no dates) son of W. Roy Bowser, b 1880 married to Rhetta HEILMAN, b 1880, daughter of William & Hannah SPEAR Heilman. W. Roy Bowser was a farmer in Manor and Kittanning Townships. Susan SMITH, b 1827 d 1881 married Simon HEILMAN, b 1824, son of Daniel & Lydia YOUNT Heilman. Simon's father, Daniel was a native of Westmorland and he farmed in Kittanning Township. Good hunting, Monette

Would someone on this list who happens to live in or near Kittanning be willing to conduct some research for me involving microfilms from old issues of the Leader Times? Upon contacting the Leader Times today, I was informed that they don't do research, but I, or someone acting on my behalf could come to their office and request microfilm(s), which would then have to be taken to the Kittanning campus of IUP to be read. They would charge a $20 deposit for the film(s), which would be returned when the film(s) were returned to them. If anyone would be willing to help me in this, contact me and I will provide further details at that time. Thanks in advance! Irene Crawford JTJTJ5@aol.com

Sally, Me again. Our library has one volume of D.R. Fisher's book. From 1866 to ?. I think Westmoreland Hist. Soc. has both volumes. I almost think the public library has one, or perhaps Apollo.

Does anyone have access to, or know of a publication, "Death Notices" Old Newspapers 1866-1900, Westmoreland Co., PA, compiled by Della Regan Fisher, 1103 Summit St., McKeesport, PA 15131, 1969 ? Please contact me if you have any knowledge of such a publication. Thanks very much, Sally sshaner@alaweb.com

Does anyone know who might have the church records for the German Baptist Church in Mahoning Twp, Armstrong Co, PA - probably in the area of Oakland (now Distant) around the 1840-1870 time frame? I'm trying to find information on the Hoffer family and they apparently didn't leave much of a paper trail. Thanks! You can e-mail me directly. Linda lynm@dangerous-minds.com ronm@westol.com
