Hey folks, With having smaller children I've been away from researching my wife's family for a while.  However; the other day I received an email that has started getting me back into it. While playing around with Microsoft's search engine I put in the name Peter Sowash and expected to see a couple things about Peter Flemming Sowash, who was an older brother to my wife's so great grandmother Zula Sowah and the first of 3 children to Henry and Ellen Rebecca Sowash.  However; for the first time I had a search engine direct me to the online version of the Butler County, Pa book. While I was excited to see something new (to me at least) about the Sowash family I noticed that the date 1826 seemed to be way way to early for Peter Flemming Sowash.  However; it stated that Peter worked his trade as a blacksmith until his death but that his children Henry and Fleming took over the business.  In the census records that I've used to track down Zula to her family, they have been listing Henry with a trade of blacksmith. Please undertand I live in Michigan so a quick trip to the Butler County Courthouse for me is a bit of a longer drive.  So before I start making phone calls or sending letters I'm hoping maybe someone here might be able to help give me a little direction. First; I'm wondering if there's anyone out there researching the Sowash family that moved to that area or possibly a connection from the Westmoreland (?) area. Secondly: Would there be any chance that there could be any Church records or such from that time frame (marriage, death, christaning, etc.) still in existance? Third: Is there anyone possibly around the Centerville area that ever walks the cemeteries? Thanks, Mike McDonald Michigan
