I'm wondering if someone on the list could tell me where to write to request copies of birth, marriage and death certificates for Blair County before 1906. I've been able to receive death certificates for after 1906 from Vitalchek.com (it only took a week). Thank you in advance, Sandie

I just love the articles that are being published on the newslist! It is great to read what was happening in Blair County! However, I would like to make a suggestion. As "historians," it would be helpful to have more documentation of the articles. ex. exact date of publication, page number, so that we provide more accurate documentation if we find the information useful or want to locate the actual newspaper. Thanks for the great info you are providing! Deborah Lauffer Markarian

Creamer on North Juniata street; at 9 o'clock, the home of Mr. W. S. Bell on North Juniata street. All three blazes were due to defective flues and the damage done was slight.

A meeting of the highway and sewer committee will be held this evening, at which time the contracts will be awarded. Murray Property Sold The Mary E.

Plummer, a son of Benjamin F. Plummer, of Bitter Root Valley, Mont., is visiting the home of his friend, J. Donald Condron, on East Allegheny street. Messrs. Condron and Plummer were broncho "busters" together a few years ago among the Montana foothills. He is a grandson of Court Crier James S. Plummer. Under the direction of William P. Smith, treasurer of the East Allegheny Street Improvement association, that thoroughfare was given a bath on Saturday last. Anton Barge and Jack Marks, the West Allegheny street white wings reported for duty on the streets today and the street will be thoroughly cleaned. The following list of letters remains uncalled for at the Hollidaysburg postoffice: Mrs. J. F. Miller, Miss Clara Anderson, Mrs. Adolphus Clapper, John Anderson, Milton Alexander, I. W.

TO BE SOLD, OR LEASED Sundry tracts of land on Stone-Creek, and in Hopewell Union and Springfield Townships, belonging to Samuel Meredith, Esq. Terms will be made advantageous to purchasers or tenants--William Orbison esq. of Huntingdon is duly authorised to sell or leased said lands, who will give ever necessary information. Indisputable titles will be given. THOMAS MERIDITH Attorney in fact for SAMUEL MERIDITH August 19th, 1806 ----------------------------------------------- In our last, we noticed the robbery and horrid murder of Mr. Peter Eshelman of this county; since which several persons have been apprehended and committed, on suspicion of being perpetrators and accessories in this wicked transaction. On Saturday last John Swan (a German) and his wife (a black woman) with Samuel Grimson, were safely lodged in the prison of this place; and on Thursday last, James Jamison, and James Magowan (who were taken up in Berks county) were likewise brought up to this gaol. From their several examinations, which have taken place before their honors Judge Henry and Spayd, circumstances appear unfavorable to the accused. The above criminals are, we are told, old offenders. Jamison is supposed to be the same person who robbed Benjamin Wallace, Esq., of Hanover, some years since, and burnt the house of a Mr. M'Faddin in this neighborhood. [Oracle of Dauphin.] -------------------------------------------------------------- Reading, 6th September On Saturday last, the 30th August, two men were taken up, on suspicion of not being justly possessed of a mare, &c other property with them--they were taken before a magistrate, and examined separately, when a different account respecting themselves, induced the magistrate to commit them both to the gaol of this place. On Monday last, at a second hearing one of them confessed, that they had some few days since together, robbed a man of 500 dollars, near Middletown in Dauphin county, proceeded then as far as within ten miles of this place, and there purchased said mare, saddle, saddlebags, and other property in their possession. Whether they did more than tie and beat the man from whom they robbed the money (by the confession of the above) is not yet ascertained.--The other of the two, apparently a harder wretch, was not long before convicted for theft in this place and sentenced to hard labor, from which he had but lately got clear. ------------------------------------------ The Huntingdon Troop of Light Dragoons are hereby ordered to meet at their usual parade ground in the Borough of Huntingdon, at the hour of 10 in the morning of the first Monday of October next, fully equipped for exercise. Punctual attendance of all the members is required. By order of the Captain, JAMES CANAN 1st Serjeant 20th Sept, 1806 ----------------------------------------- Agreeably to an order of the Hon. Orphans Court for Huntingdon County, will be exposed to public sale on the premises on the first Monday in November next a GRIST & SAW-MILL plantation or tract of valuable Land, with sundry improvements, containing, in two adjoining surveys, 255 acres. Also, an ISLAND in the river Juniata near the same, containing about 20 acres, in Shirley township, one mile below Drakes Ferry, being the real estate late of William Morris deceased. the terms of sale one fourth in hand and the residue in five annual payments without interest. Attendance will be given by John Morris, Hugh Campbell and Mary his wife, administrators of said estate. A. HENDERSON, C. Orphan's Court 4th Sept. 1806

I was wondering if I could please have a lookup in the 1900 census, Blair Co for Sirell R. Vandervander. His wife was Catherine/Katharine and there would have been one son, that I'm certain of, who was Ralph about 5 or 6. They may have been living in Bellwood but not sure of that. Any help is appreciated. Maureen

Hollidaysburg Hints A Record of Interesting Events at the County Capital Huckleberry pie is now ripe. Prof. Thomas Wilson, of Altoona, a first class pianist, was in town yesterday. Mr. Jerry Mahoney and his wife left last evening, we presume for their home in Philadelphia. Joe Carroll is the only man who brought the Stars and Stripes to the front on Tuesday evening. Harry Gardner has a large and beautiful collection of bugs and butterflies. Harry as a bugger is death to bugs. There are but precious few of our citizens who have a substantial hope that the new railroad will ever be built. The grasshoppers and potato bug crop this season has been a failure. Another reason why the English sparrow must go. Mr. Richard Roelofs, freight agent for the Pennsylvania railroad, has become a citizen of Hollidaysburg, having leased and moved his family into the Rhodes residence on Mulberry street. Dr. R. Fasolt, of Altoona, agent for the Krakauer Bros., fine pianos, tarried with us a few minutes while waiting for the train. The Professor knows what a good piano is, and would sell none but a first-class instrument. A "star-light" picnic will be held in "Squire Seibert's grove, at the upper end of Duncansville, on Saturday night. A cordial invitation is extended to all who believe with Ecclesiastics, the preacher, who says there is a time to mourn and a time to dance. We have been informed that a gentleman from New York named Hitchcock is or was in town looking for a suitable building to purchase for a first class hotel or summer boarding house. As the Seminary building is the only one that would fill the bill it is not likely he found what he wanted. A most remarkable and sudden change has come over the spirit of one of our most prominent fellow citizens. A man noted for his love for the pure and good and heretofore always ready, willing and waiting to "sit down" on anything bad or objectionable, has for several days stood up boldly for and positively refused to "sit down" on eight big boils, which are not only objectionable, but the worst torment of his life. The demonstration on Tuesday night did not amount to much as a ratification meeting, but the great crowd of people that thronged the sidewalks from the Diamond to the Gaysport bridge, listening to the music furnished by the Social band, demonstrated that had a speaker been secured it would have been a rattling good ratification meeting. It further demonstrated that a glorious victory awaits the Democrats this fall if they will only stick well to their standard bearers. The handwriting is on the wall. The people are sick and tired of the rules and ruin party, and if the Democrats are consistent, and show that they are, victory is sure to follow. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Local Laconics Mrs. W. E. McCarthy, of McVeytown, is visiting her Altoona friends this week. Camp No. 121, Sons of Veterans, will hold a campfire this evening. All are welcome. Miss Ida Kaylor, of Loretto, is visiting her friend, Miss Mary Kolley, on Eighth avenue. Mr. James McCann and wife, of Tyrone, were among the visitors to the city yesterday. Mr. H. Mayer, of this city, visited his brother-in-law, Mr. E. Goldenberg, in Johnstown yesterday. "Use lemons freely."-McVeytown Journal. All right, Cooney; send us a box-FREE, and freely we'll use them. The members of the German Lutheran Sunday school held an enjoyable basket picnic at Cresson yesterday. Happy the people who down in McVeytown abound, since eggs there are only fifteen and butter twelve cents a pound. The railroad institute was held in the Logan House yesterday. A large number of members from all over the road attended. The Pittsburgh division pay car arrived in the city yesterday, and the railroaders at this end of the division received their monthly pay. Mr. George McCahan, Chief Clerk of the Motor Power Department of the Shenandoah Valley Railroad, is visiting his Blair county friends. Councilman Charles Fettlinger, foreman of the company's lumber yard, left for the West this morning on business connected with his department. Mr. Harvey Ale, who left this city some weeks ago, has located in Denver, Colorado, and will probably make his permanent residence there. William Smith, a young man aged 22 years, committed suicide in Clearfield on Monday by shooting himself through the head. He was demented. Godfrey Wold attended the Homewood races at Pittsburgh yesterday, returning home at midnight. Mr. Joseph Storcy and his son Tom will watch the races all week. At Plum Creek, Indiana county, by Rev. D. W. Griffith, July 8, 1884, David Williams, of Altoona and Miss Mary A. Black, of Eldorado, were united in the holy bonds of wedlock. Ed. Everett, who has been manager of the Clearfield Steam Heating Company for some time past, has gone to Hollidaysburg to make an estimate as to the cost of heating that town by steam. A picnic by the passenger trainmen of the Pennsylvania Railroad will be held at Valley Grove, Hulton station, Allegheny Valley Railroad, today. A delightful time is anticipated by the railroaders. A meeting of the officers and executive committee of the Juniata Valley Editorial Association will be held at the Tribune office in this city on Saturday next, at 10 o'clock, a.m. ------------------------------------ Funeral of Conductor Taylor The funeral of Isaiah Taylor, the freight conductor, who was killed at Huntingdon on Tuesday evening, took place yesterday afternoon and was very largely attended. The services were performed at the First Lutheran church by the Pastor, Rev. J. W. Firey, assisted by Rev. W. W. Criley and J. J. Kerr, and were very impressive. The deceased was long a consistent member of the church, and aided the Sunday school by teaching a class. For that reason the church was crowded and the words of the ministers sank deep into the hearts of all. The remains were interred in Fairview.

I recently obtained a photo of my gg grandmother, Elizabeth (Eichenlaub) Waltz, along with some of her children. I don't know too much about the Eichenlaub family, and this photo has got me thinking about them. Elizabeth's parents were Joseph Eichenlaub and Mary Ann Sherry, from Herxheim, Bavaria, Germany. Elizabeth was the oldest of 9 children: Elizabeth, born March 23, 1843 Joseph, born Jan. 15, 1844 (married Mary Margaret Burkhart) Valenine, born March 9, 1846 Peter, born April 2, 1848 Mary Catherine, born April 12, 1853 John, born in 1857 (first married Mary Feeny, then Sarah Clifford) Anna Regina, born Sept 8, 1858 Michael Augustin, born May 24, 1861 William, born in 1863 According to the little bit that I know about this line, some of the Eichelaub's lived in Cambria and some in Blair County. I think perhaps some also moved to Ohio. Anyone researching this Eichenlaub line?
