Hi Gary, I, too, am interested in learning more about the Native Americans of Western Pennsylvania. Most of my ancestors served in militia units during the Revolution and many were mustered during times of tension with Native Americans. I know there is a very old book called "The Indian Wars of Pennsylvania." I believe the author was Sipe. (I can get the details later if anyone is interested.) This book gives a detailed - if outdated - view of these conflicts. (Regarding the Girtys: I think they play a big role in some chapters. I also seem to recall seeing a comic book about them about six or seven years ago.) The biggest event that involved any of my Beaver County ancestors was the ill-fated campaign led by Col. William Crawford in June 1782. Crawford's force was sent against the Native American villages near Sandusky, Ohio, believed to be the source of attacks on the settlements. After an initial battle, the militiamen prepared to retreat. They were attacked and scattered. Many were captured and killed. Col. Crawford was captured, scalped and burned at the stake. An eyewitness account was published in "Pennsylvania Archives," Series 6, Vol. 2. It's very interesting reading. It also includes muster lists of the units involved. This all brings up a question I've asked before. One of my ancestors - Sampson Peirsol - said he served "as a private soldier a volunteer in March in the year 1781 under Captain Joseph Sipeney in a company of Indian Spies" when he applied for a Revolutionary War pension. What was an "Indian Spy" and what did one do? Brian Bowers >From: "G. R.

Gary I hope, too, that you don't receive any "hate mail", but some people are still like that. The "Redneck mindset", you might call it, but I know for a fact that there are some of my fellow DAR members who think "My Patriot was an officer and yours was only a private, so I'm better than you".

Hi Tom, (I thought others on the list may also benefit from some of this).... unfortunately I have not been able to review your attachment ... I think I have deleted a file that I need to "associate" it to - and haven't figures that part out yet but.... see below: Bolesville: Located on Junction Stratch. John Boles operated a Boatyard here. Early 1900's - 200 people here. Children attended school in Sharon at school where the United Way now is. the school was torn down to make room for the United Way building. Some teachers there: Orpha & Dora Wallace, Miss Beeman, Mr. Bryan. Another---- Bolesville:` Bolesville was located on the east side of the Big Beaver River. There were approx. 25 houses and families with a total population of about 200 people in the late 1800's and early 1900s. there were two boat yards at this location, one of which was operated by John Boles for whom the village was named. $20,000 - 30,000 worth of business was done here annually. There was also a steam saw mill with one run of stones for the grinding of grain. The children from these families attended school across the Beaver River at the old two-room Sharon School. I also see it is referred to as "Boalsville". Hope this helps.

Ann, Thanks for the input, but I wasn't looking for sarcasm. Jean
A lot of Beaver co info in the Winter issue of the Western PA Gen Society Quarterly. 'Some Beaver County Deaths 1817-1887 ..from obits not all inclusive; ( this by Helen Clear who has done really good books on Beaver county that are not expensive); the story of a steamboat disaster 1886 with list of crew; first tavern keepers of Beaver county. This is a good group to join if your family was Western PA. Ris
Looking for information on the surname CHAMPION Diana
Hi, I am researching the Campbell family in Beaver County. I have a James Campbell who married Rebecca Morrow. James was born in 1801 and Rebecca born in 1806. They had the following children: John born 1827 and married first Belinda Moore who died after one year of marriage. He then married Mary Smith Mitchell daughter of Matthew and Nancy Smith Mitchell in 1851, William born in 1829, Henry born unknown, Robert born 1834 and married Martha ?, Adam James born 1840 married Ruth?, Ellen born unknown, Rebecca born unknown, Margaret b 1843 and married Frank McKim and Angeline born unknown. Rebecca and James Campbell later in life moved to Scotland Co, MO and died there. I come down through their son John and he and his family moved to Mahaska Co, IA and later on to Kansas and they both died there. I think many of the sons moved to Missouri and I am not sure about the daughters.

I have been able to trace my Wallace ancestry back to my GrGrGrandfather James C Wallace b. 7 Sep 1832 (Carroll Co, OH ?) but then lose track. I am seeking his parents and/or siblings. He married Mary Eckley 27 Sep 1849 in Carroll Co, OH and had children: *Harvey 1850 m.Agness Amanda Wright, raised family Beaver Co, PA Samilda 1851 m.John Smith Martha Jane 1855 m.George Wright George 1857 moved to Clark Co, OH abt 1904 (?) James Howard 1863 moved to Cincinnatti (?), OH abt 1905 Amanda 1867 m.Elmer Milliron William 1869 ??? * my line James moved his family to Beaver Co, PA after the Civil War and the last 2 children probably born there, with the others born in Carroll Co, OH. The family was on the 1870 PA Census for Ohioville, Beaver Co. James died 1905 in E. Liverpool, OH and son Harvey died at sister, Martha Wright's home 1909, E. Liverpool. Have not been able to find what happened to any of Harvey's children or wife after his death even though many should still have been in school somewhere. Harvey Wallace's family (all born Smith's Ferry, Beaver Co, PA): Mary D b. 1875 m. William Hoyler in Jul 1892 *Edgar Jesse b. 30 Oct 1877 m. Mary Catherine Householder in 1902 **Harry Hoy b. 24 Jun 1881 m. Ada O Pryor in 1902 Margaret J b. Oct 1883 m1st ??? McElfresh . m2nd ??? Lowden d. Washington(?), PA Katherine"Kat" P b.

Hello, I haven't had much luck searching for my Householders. My Grandmother was Mary Katherine Householder ("Mayme") b.September 25, 1874 in Sewickley, PA and m.Edgar Jesse Wallace in 1902. Her father was R.G. (Reeson or Rizen ?) Householder b.June 22, 1832 in Steubenville, Jefferson Co, OH and mother was Catherine Morris b.June 1843. R.G. worked for the Railroad as a Train Dispatcher in Sewickley, PA where he raised his family and later as a Coal Agent in Middlesboro, KY. R.G.'s parents are thought to be Daniel(b.1799) and Susan(b.1809) Householder. Daniel's family is in the 1850 OH Census for Saline Tp, Steubenville, Jefferson Co. Sibling's of R.G.(Rizen) are shown as Franklin(1829), Angus(1833), Liman(1835), John(1838), Jane(1840), Margaret(1842), Thomas(1846), Daniel(1848). Would like to find more about the family of my GrGrandfather, R.G. Who did his siblings marry & where did they raise their family. None appear in the 1860 OH Census for Saline Tp, Steubenville, Jefferson Co. My research is primarily in the Wallace, Eckley, Householder, Wright, Orr, Fitch, Earl, Goodsell, and Thomas lines. Please contact me if any of these names connect. Bob Wallace in IL
HI, Can anyone tell me the names of the tribes of Indians that inhabited Washington Co.Pa. in the mid 1700''s? I have an ancestor that we thought had the name of KARENHAPPUCK STILLWELL. She married John Might. Even though this is a name taken from the Bible, we have reason to believe it has been mixed up with the name KARIEN- (last name)HAPPUCK. No where in the Stillwell family is this name repeated as KARNHAPPUCK and we all know that names were often repeated in families. Thanks for any help. Jean
