Here is a note I sent on Jan 9 about a similar request. In the past few days people have been asking about Schreckengost familiies in the Armstrong Co area. I was looking through the 1870 Armstrong country census films (1300 and 1301) yesterday trying to find some of my own family and quit counting at 30 heads of housholds. I would venture to say there are well over 50 Schreckengost families in that census area in 1870. Fred Held
