Does anyone have the PA address for Aleegheny County or Franklin County? Is there a list somewhere of the abbreviations used? Peggy

Dear Ed, Thank you so much. These websites and their sister ones for other counties are indeed very helpful. They provided much Uber and related families information. I appreciate you taking the time to respond to my message including the research involved. You have been very helpful. You are located very nearby. Are you also researching Uber's and/or the families they married into? Thanks, again.

Dear Fred, Thank you for your suggestions. I have not found any further information on this Uber family on FamilySearch.org. If you know of some would you please tell me how and where you found it. I appreciate you searching the PA census for Salome and I, too, am sorry that you didn't find anyone that could have been "our" Salome in Westmoreland, PA . Were any of the 39 Salome's you found in PA born circa 1825/6? Are you also researching Uber's and/or the families they married into? Thanks, again.

Hi, I am posting this message to Armstrong, Clarion, and Butler counties, so my apology if anyone receives duplicates due to multiple subscriptions. I am looking into purchasing the "History of." books for these counties, but am looking to purchase the most promising one first. If someone has the time, I'd greatly appreciate a lookup of the following surnames and let me know they are present in the book: (Am also considering the following titles Callensburg, a Small Community, History of Callensburg and Licking Township, 4th ed. Clarion County and its beginnings Whitmore (also Witmer, Whitmer) Waters (possibly Watters as well) I could not find, but perhaps someone knows, are the earlier years of the Clarion Democrat transcribed on a CD-ROM available for purchase? Many thanks in advance for any assistance you can offer, Regards, Nick

To Ann Appleton I am interested in the information you have on James McKee and Sarah Bell. I have information about that family, because I have been researching the other Joseph McKee who was in Armstrong Co. at the same time. It appears and I have pretty well proven that the Joseph McKee in the Armstrong Co. History is your Joseph, and is not a son of Andrew McKee as indicated in the County History. Have you seen a copy of that county History? An abstract of part of Joseph's will is shown in which his children are named. Your information shows Joseph with a son named William, which I do not see shown on that will. However, you may have more information. The Will shows his wife as Jane (Young, but her surname is not shown), with children, Thomas, Sarah (Davis),Ann (Rasher) Joseph McKee, Margaret (Kelly), and Martha (Hart). My Joseph who was a son of Andrew McKee left Armstrong Co. after 1810, and appeared in Brown Co., OH in the 1820 census. He lived next door to his sister Nancy who married James Hannah, and Joseph was the administrator of James Hannah's extate when he died. Other proof of his relationship to Andrew who married Mary Bamford is that Joseph named a son Andrew Bamford McKee. Joseph had a daughter Elizabeth Eaton McKee (my ancestor). She married Thomas Hunter in Brown Co., OH, and in 1857, he left the county where he was a County Commissioner. He next appears in Hancock Co., IL.in 1860 census. Elizabeth Eaton's Uncle (brother of Joseph named James McKee) also appears there in the 1860 census. So, Elizabeth's father Joseph had died, and she and her husband went with her Uncle James to Illinois. I was able to connect this, because Thomas Hunter's daughter Ann who was my grandmother was born in Macon Co., IL, where I was also able to trace them after they left Hancock Co., IL. I hope this makes sense to you. I have been able to find a relationship of Joseph who married Jane Young to Andrew and his family. We believe but have not yet proven that William b. 1696 was the father of Andrew. If that is so, then James Mackey was an Uncle of William. Their common ancestor was John McKie and Esther Hawthorn. I would love to exchange information with you to see if our information agrees. Thank you.

Deborah, You referenced the LDS IGI files and you show a copy of the 1880 census index from the LDS FamilySearch website. Did you check the submitters of the entry in the LDS Ancestral File for that family also at the same website? The 1850 census shows one Salome in all of Westmoreland Co. Unfortunately, that Salome was born in 1849. In all there are 39 Salomes in all of Pensylvania in 1850.

This is what I have on the Peter & Salome (unknown) Uber family and you're right the only place I ever see Lucinda Margaretta Uber b. 21 Sept 1843 christened 23 Feb 1844 is in the records of the First Lutheran Church, Greensburg, Westmoreland Co, PA, USA and if she is Losetta 6 years old in the 1850 census. From the censuses below this Uber family appears to have stayed in Unity Twp, Westmoreland Co, PA at least until 1880 and I don't see John and Salome in the 1900 census.

Does some kind soul (SKS) know the whereabouts of the family genealogy / history research done by Lincoln Otto 1913-1996 & Sara Asenath 1919-1999 (Pearson) Uber and/or their descendants? It is our understanding from contact with them before they both died that they had done quite a bit of family and cemetery research but had lent or passed it on to another family member. Lincoln Otto Uber & Sara Asenath Pearson were 4th cousins 1 generation removed, as well as, husband and wife. Their common ancestors being Johannes Peter and/or Georg & Anna Maria (Zeigler) Uber. Which is ironical since Sara and I am also 4th cousins once removed and Lincoln and I are 4th cousins twice removed. If SKS has any information about this Uber/Urey Cribbs/Pearson family and/or any ideas about where, how and what to research please contact me on or off list. I know quite a bit about the Uber's and the Pearson/Pierson's but need to learn about the Urey's and Cribbs'. If SKS is interested in exchanging information please do contact me. Hope SKS can help us find either Lincoln & Sara Uber's research and/or their family. Thanks in advance (TIA) Deborah in the suburbs of Washington, DC, USA

Hi! I have been working on researching my mother's father's line: McKee. They originally came to Pennsylvania as a couple James McKee and his wife, Sarah Bell, with their five young sons, Joseph, John, Hugh, Thomas and James in about 1770 from County Tyrone, (No.) Ireland. My line goes through Joseph (1758-1851), William (1807-1898), Thomas Jefferson (1843-1910), Charles Colton (1867-1953). The family apparently arrived in Armstrong County about 1800. My grandfather, Charles, was born in Girard, Ohio where Thomas had settled after the Civil War. The family seems to have drifted around western Pennsylvania, but were settled in Pittsburgh in 1910 when Thomas died and Charles took his family with him to California. I live in California, am a retired English teacher, have been married 40 years, and have two grand children. My hobbies are gardening, genealogy, calligraphy, travel, and reading. I would be grateful to hear from anyone who is researching the same family, who might have photos--I have a very few--or copies of documents. I think I am most eager to be able to get obituaries and other newspaper articles that would help me to know these people better. At one time they were prominent in the development of Armstrong Co. Joseph gave the land for a Church of the Brethren church and cemetery and is buried there. His son, William gave land to the Methodist Church for a church and cemetery and is buried there. They owned extensive acreage and saw mills early in the 19th Century. If anyone can help me with information, I would be appreciate it very much. I will share what I have, but much is based on secondary sources or family memories and notes. Sincerely, Annie

good morning, Besides St. Mary's, what other Roman Catholic cemetery was in use from the 1870's through 1914 in & around Kittanning? For several years I have been searching the MCGARRY family who lived in Kittanning from the late 1840's through the 1880's. One daughter who moved to Philadelphia was definitely buried in Kittanning in 1914. I have never been able to locate a cemetery for them. I was surpised to not find them at St. Mary's, since Patrick MCGARRY was a founding member of that church. A 1914 death certificate for Ann MCGARRY states she is buried in Kittanning (no cemetery name listed.) Any advice on how to proceed with this search is appreciated. thank you, Sherri Bobish searching in Kittanning: MCGARRY (also spelled MCGEARY, MCGARY)
