There are so many cemeteries around there it is hard to know which ones were around in the late 1800s. Try contacting Joe McClusky who is writing a book on that area. The one I remember is Bear Creek and I think there is a list of people there on the internet. Other wise most are Family (example the Sheakley Cemetery on the original farm is ours).

People from Cranberry Township would not be buried in the Petrolia area. They most likely would have been buried on their own farm at that time. Please post the names of the people you are looking for, maybe someone will have some information to help you.

Anderson and Birdie S. Ryder (NOTE his name is spelled Lewis Claude Anderson in the above obituary for Lillian Oesterling.) I am looking for sibling information on these two individuals to broaden my tree. Louis was born in Pa. around 1875-76. I suspect around Butler. His parents were both born in PA. Birdie was born in Tennessee in 1886, but her family relocated to Butler, by 1924. I believe Louis and Birdie spent their entire adult married life in Butler. Louis and Birdie had 4 children, Effie, Emma, Elmer, and Betty (Lillian Beatrice "Betty" Oesterling in above obituary) I have some information on Effie as she was my Grandmother. I haven't been successful in locating any information on parents or siblings for Louis. I have found where Birdie had 7 siblings - Harry Earnest, Elliott A., Lillian B., Francis T., William J., Moses J. and George S., but have been unable to find any information on any of them.

As a further followup to the recent CROW/CROWE thread, my Alexander DOUTHETT married Mary CROWE in Butler Co. about 1812. Mary was the brother of John Crow of Forward Twp. The various histories of Butler Co. give her father as Francis or William CROWE. Although he is supposed to have lived here after coming from Ireland, I find no mention of Francis in any record. Does anyone have more definitive information on Mary's father?? Jim Hazlett JHazl@aol.com

Pat, By what date should we have the school photos in to the BCHS? What I have are some 8x10 class photos. At least one of them (I believe from 1888 of my husband's grandfather's Millerstown School class) has the entire list of names with it. Is this the kind of photo you're looking for? Lyn In a message dated 3/14/2010 1:31:35 P.M. Mountain Daylight Time, sweeze@zoominternet.net writes: 1. The Butler County Historical Society is in the process of compiling and publishing a book on the Schools of Butler County. Since the year 1799, there have been at least 295 school houses in Butler County that have come and gone or are serving our students today. We expect to publish two books of schools - one on the northern half of the county and one on the southern half since there is so much information. We will be including a map of each township showing the location of the school houses. We are asking everyone to either donate their old school photos, scan them (see below) and send them to us on CD or DVD, or send us your photos and we will scan them then return them to you. We are also collecting reminiscences of your school days and any information you have on the old buildings. Were they torn down, burned, or renovated and now used as dwellings? If you have any questions, please contact us as bchissoc@zoominternet.net or pabutler@zoominternet.net. 2. The Butler County Historical Society is sponsoring a trip to the Antietam Battlefields and Cemetery where the Butler Regiments fought and where those who gave their all are laid to rest. Civil War expert Brad Pflugh will guide us on this tour. We will also visit the C & O Canal and Harper's Ferry. More information is available at www.butlerhistory.com. Seating is limited so get your reservation in early. 3. The Historical Society is also looking for people who are interested in joining a site committee. We have four sites which include the Lowry/Shaw House, the Heritage Center Museum, the Little Red School House, and the Cooper Cabin Homestead. Instead of just having one person responsible for everything at these sites, we are forming committees so that everyone can help in a way they enjoy without being overwhelmed and overworked! We have all kinds of things that need done so you can choose to do something alone or with a group, at a time that suits you. Please consider giving an hour or more a month to help keep Butler County's history alive. If you'd like to talk about this opportunity, please call Pat at 724-282-1736 or at 724-183-8116. **** If you are scanning your photos - Please scan at the following resolutions: 8 x 10 - 300 dpi 5 x 7 - 600 dpi 4 x 6 and smaller - 1200 dpi MAILING ADDRESS: BCHS P O Box 414 Butler, PA 16003 Thank You!!!
