I checked Steele Memorial for the 1959 issue but they only had one from 1959 but it didn't have the stories that are being looked for. The library does have a lot of the "The Settler's", the earliest I think was in 1957. Sherry > > Have you tried the Tioga Co.

Hello all, Please don't forget libraries when you do your research. As I reported when I helped put Fay Morgan's INDEX of several SETTLER issues on Joyce's site <SEE http://www.rootsweb.com/~srgp/books/setinde2.htm > it is in several libraries, as well as the Bradford County Historical Society. An interlibrary loan request at your local library (citing OCLC Number: 6684424) may well have produced the desired article. Some branches of the Bradford County Library hold issues. To contact them see http://www.bradfordcountylibrary.org/syslibs.html The following libraries own sections of "The Settler:" In Pennsylvania: Historical Society of Western Pennsylvania, Pittsburgh, 1- 1952-to date James V Brown Library, Williamsport, 1- 1952-to date Mansfield University, Mansfield, 15- 1977-to date State Library of Pennsylvania, Harrisburg; v.7- 1969-to date Some copies are also held by the Pennsylvania Historical & Museum Commission, Harrisburg; the Pennsylvania State University, University Park; and the University of Pittsburgh. In New York: Onondaga Co Pub Library, Syracuse, 1-5 1952-to date(?) Steele Memorial Library, Elmira, 6- 1961-to date New York State Historical Assn Library, Cooperstown, 1-6 1952-1961 In IL, WI, OH and MI: Winnetka-Northfield Pub Library District, Winnetka, IL, 1953-1959 (incomplete) State Historical Society of Wisconsin Library, Madison WI, v.1-v.23, v.30-v.36 1952-1997 Milwaukee Public Library, Milwaukee WI, 13- 1975-to date Also some issues held by: Western Reserve Historical Society Library, Cleveland OH; Flint Public Library, Flint MI. I too would love to see the Settler put online, however. Regards, Bill Benson Librarian & Son of Bradford County
I have the January 1959 issue and see an article with the Hartley Expedition featured. There also is an article featuring John Frfanklin. I will call the Bradford County Library in Burlington, and if they do not have this issue, I will get one to them. As to Col. Matthaias Hollenback, I found a lengthy scetch of him in the November 1955 issue. You may have read that article. As before, If the Bradford County Library in Burlington doesn't have this issue, I will see that they get it. Answer me directly. Fay Tiller Morgan [email protected]
Have you tried the Tioga Co. Historical Society in Owego, NY? I don't know what they have there as I have never been there but have been told that they have quite a lot of research material. I don't remember seeing the Settler Newsletter in the Chemung Valley Museum Research Room in Elmira, NY but they also my be a good place to look. Have not seen this particular literature in the Steele Memorial Library in Elmira, but that doesn't mean it is not there. Pat Wainwright of Chemung Co., NY
I would be interested in this article also. Wouldn't it be nice to find it and post it on the website for everyone to share? Marilyn B.
There is a particular seller on Ebay who lists himself as being from Towanda who frequently has copies of the settler up for sale. It might be worth contacting him/her to see if they might have it. Here is a link to some listed currently listed http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1548507969 -- Dana Richter (607) 255-7163 fax (607) 255-9001 http://www.chess.cornell.edu [email protected]
I wasn't aware of this newsletter or article but I would be very interested in getting a copy of it as well. Especially if there is mention of a Gamaliel Truesdell (or some variation of this spelling) and family. Thanks. Deborah Economidis >Date: Fri, 12 Jul 2002 00:03:07 -0700 >From: "Ann Y.

I am also looking for this 1959 Settler Newsletter. I just need the article about the Families who escaped the Wyoming Massacre. If anyone knows where to find a copy please let me know also. Annie Sullivan
I am seeking a copy of a 1959 Settler Newletter which was printed by the Bradford County Historical Society. It has two items of great interest to me with my research. A sketch about Col. Matthias Hollenback and an article about the Families who escaped the Wyoming Massacre. This seems to be the only issue the Bradford County Historical Society does not have. The Tioga Point Museum is also missing this particular issue. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Sign up for SBC Yahoo! Dial - First Month Free http://sbc.yahoo.com
Do you mean Roseville? It as a very small town on Rte 549, about 9-10 miles north east of Mansfield.

I can't find it on my map.....where is Rossville, in Tioga County.......?? What township?? Thanks, Mark Orshaw
Also, I note that there are time I can not reach the site's main page at all, and the counters have not been working. Site use is down significantly, so I assume others of you are having similar problems. I can only attributer it to the changes in process on the Rootsweb server. Be patient until I figure it out or they work it out. Joyce M. Tice <A HREF="http://www.rootsweb.com/~srgp/jmtindex.htm">Tri-Counties Genealogy & History</A>
Hi All, Thanks to all of you who notified me that the PICO search engine is not working. I reindexed it successfully on July 7 with 7304 pages on site. All looks well. As you know, I house most of my site on the Rootsweb server in California, and they have been undergoing some system changes that have caused some disruptions. It may be that causing the problem, but I am reindexing it again now to see if that fixes the problem. I'll check it out once I get my notice that the reindexing is completed - it takes several hours, so I may not get to it until morning. Thanks again for notifying me. Joyce M. Tice <A HREF="http://www.rootsweb.com/~srgp/jmtindex.htm">Tri-Counties Genealogy & History</A>
oops! the Rootsweb servers aren't in California and has not since Feb 2000. They're in Provo Utah. Picosearch is not only one with the problem, Several other kinds of search engines used by others reported same thing. The RW should finish by end of this week. The biggest portion they had to move was the Archives group - now on two servers.

Peggie, Thanks. You bring up a good point about a 'password protected' web site. That might be an interesting option. Like I mentioned earlier, my web site isn't listed in the internet search engines, but it could be accessed by anyone if they knew the URL. Does anyone know how to 'password protect' a web site ? Is it possible to convert an unprotected site to a protected one ? Tom C.
Thank you all so much for your help looking for Troy and Columbia. This is such a good list. You are always so helpful.!

Tom, the only comment I have to make is "don't think your website isn't on the web search engines so you are safe, you should think, it just isn't there YET, because it eventually will be.

OK, thanks. I think the key word here might be 'public', though. My web site was designed for the viewing pleasure of family members only. I have done searches on all the major internet search engines, and I do NOT get a 'hit' pointing to my web site, so I'm not sure if my site would qualify as 'public'. Just to be safe, though, I think I will take the advice of all who have responded, and remove the photos, names, birth dates of all living persons on my web site. Thanks to all for your input. Tom C.
Tom: I believe that the general policy is NOT to list the living. That is certainly the policy at the LDS Family Search Site. >From my personal point of view, I do not list the living and would not want anyone else to list me. One of the questions asked by credit companies and banks for identification is "mother's maiden name". We don't need this information on the internet. I think it would be prudent to remove the names of your living relatives from your web site unless you have specific permission from them. Betty Garro
