Arthur Holtz, O.S.B. Ordained Priest May 22, 1954 Boyhood dreams of long ago Saw an altar fair, Consecrated, trembling hands Lifted there in prayer. And those dreams have led me on, Dreamlike though they seemed. Now, dear friend, thank God with me, I am what I dreamed. Other dreams have I today, Bright in spite of fears, That this human heart may be Christlike through the years. Think of me when on your knees That this dream come true. Bowed before the altar fair, There I'll think of you.

I've been on this list about 10 years. I took some time off to change to Broadband, get a new email address and to have both knees replaced. I'm glad to be back and hope I didn't miss too much over the last couple of months. Can someone please tell me how to update my new email address on my surnames list? Thanks Rich Gralnek

That hotel on Miller Street was built by Jacob Krug m to Minerva Mechling. They are buried in Hastings at St. Bernard's. Krug sold it to David A Houck, brother of A.J. Houck, the newspaper editor and it was called the American House. The Houck family lost the liquor license and it has been a private home since that. I don't think that was the Gray Hotel. David Houck was married to Catherine Gessler, whose father, Civil War Veteran Erhard Gessler, owned a dry goods store there at Millerviller. I am not sure but this may have been the store that later belonged to the Abel Family and then to Fred Gunther. The second hotel was along the RR tracks at Millerville, cater-corner from Strittmatter's Planing Mill, beside the Grove. One of the Houcks owned the Grove amd Dance Plavillion which later was made into the Baker's Garage. The garage is still in operation. The churches held picnics at the Grove and held socials and dances at the Plavillion. The Grove Hotel was along the tracks, and Simon Strittmatter owned it. He rented it to Anton Ignatius Kline m to Mary Ann Huber for several years. It is still there, turned into a Memorial building for tombstones, still run by Harry Kelly and his descendants. Bertha Warner married Peter Kline, and her sister Salome Warner married his brother, Henry Adam "Harrry" Warner. Bertha had 4 children and died, then Peter married Bertha Nagle [she had a son, Francis] and she died. He then married Scotia Mitchell Miller and they had two children.

Someone asked me about Brandenburg, so I looked it up. The Brandenburg Gate is in Berlin, but the country of Brandenburg is a part of lower Serbia.

Martin Miller is a confused one, as there were two martin Millers married and having children at the same time. The Martin Miller m to Catherine Link is a brother of Philip Miller and Martin and Philip are children of of Jacob Miller who in the 1850 Census is living in Carrolltown with his daughter Maria/Mary married to [ ] Fongheiser. In the previous ten years they all, except Philip were listed in and around what is now Blair County, the Hollies area. Jacob, the father, had a wife named Elizabeth [ ], but I don't know where she died. There was a brother named David and one name Casper. Philip did not come with them, he migrated from Heltersberg, Rhineland, about 1845 or so and worked in the coal mines in Willksbarre Township--he is in the 1850 Census there. He is in Elder Township [I think it is called Chest Township then] in 1860. Philip married Elizabeth Henges before he immigrated, and she joined with with Adam [his son] about 1848. Catherine [m my uncle Baltzer Kline] and P.P/ [Philip Peter] [m Henrietta Hattie Smith] were born in the East before coming here. A younger child, Elizabeth married my g-grandfather Louis Kline, brother of Baltzer, above]. We have been arguing the possibility that the Catherine Henges who was married to John Born and Adam Haas was a siter of Catherine. In Catherine's obit, it says she has one sister, Mrs. Peter Milller. That is not "Philip", of course, but Philip does not have a middle name, but one of his children is P.P. or Philip Peter and another is Peter. Anyone Know?

My grandparents on my dad's side came from Poland about 1911. My grandparents Stanley and Agnes were married and had a child prior to Stanley leaving to the USA to get work to obtain money. This way he could pay for the voyage for Agnes and Aunt Stella. Stanley and two of his brothers settles in Chicago and started a meat market. I never found his two brothers. After about a year, Stanley had sent for his family. By this time Aunt Stella was about 7 years old. Agnes's parents did not want Stella to leave. They were old. So Aunt Stella was left behind to live with her moms parents. The first born child in the USA to Stanley and Agnes was in Chicago. This was my Aunt Lillian. The family then moved to New Jersey and then to Pennsylvania. Stanley and Agnes had settled in Westbranch for a little while and then finally in Heilwood. This was just before 1920. The rest of the children were born between these two places. As the children of Stanley and Agnes grew they moved form home. The girls married local boys and left. The boys married local girls went into the military and left. My dad was the only one to stay in the area. The rest of my cousins Uncles and Aunts live in Michigan, New York, California, Washington and Illinois. Not many of them like genealogy. Stanley died in the early 1960's and is buried in St. Patricks cemetery in Camerons Bottom just off to the right of the old church as you are facing the doors. Agnes lived much longer and moved in with family in Michigan and is buried in Mount Olivet cemetery in Detroit. My Aunt Stella came to the USA on one trip. She spent about a year here visiting family. this was in the late 70's and I had left home already. I never got to meet her but I do have pictures. She returned to poland and she is buried some where in the Jarwiny, Maolpolska, Poland area. Many of her children are still alive and My Uncle Louis writes them often. None of them speak English and Uncle Louis speaks fluent Polish. I ask him a question he writes the family in Poland. They write back with the answer. None of then have telephones Surprisingly, there is another Stanley Augustine (Stanislaw Augustyn) who is a couple years different in age than my grandfather that settled in Carrolltown. I am thinking that Barbara is his grand daughter. Please read the story I attached. I never did find my grandfather on a ship in Ellis Island. There were 25 of them I could not tell them apart. I guess Stanley Augustine in Poland is like Joe Smith in the USA. There are tons of them. I did find Agnes. See below. Is this your Barbara August 2, 2007 Fletchers note 50th anniversary Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Fletcher of Hampton, Va., have noted their 50th wedding anniversary with an informal outdoor gathering with family, friends and neighbors at their home. Mr. Fletcher and the former Barbara Augustine were married June 22, 1957, in Detroit, Mich. Mr. Fletcher was born in Hastings, son of the late William and Margaret Fletcher. Mrs. Fletcher was born in Carrolltown, daughter of Helen Augustine and the late Frank Augustine. Mr. Fletcher retired after 30 years’ service from the Air Force as a chief master sergeant. His family accompanied him on many overseas tours, including Germany, Hawaii, Philipines and Iran. The Fletchers enjoy bowling, playing cards and traveling. They are the parents of three children: Barbara Andleton of St. Louis, Mo., and Tommy and David Fletcher, both of Florida Keys. There are four grandchildren: Danielle, Jesse, David and Taylor.

In the 1890 Cambria County Atlas there is a map of Prospect that has the names of the residents written for every property. I looked up an English family who emigrated here before the Civil War and I found their property there. The father was a mine foreman with three daughters. One went to Australia [the English government paid for emigration of families who met their criteria], one daughter stayed in England [but later emigrated to the Scranton Area] and one daughter came to Johnstown with the family. Supposedly there was a son who died in the Civil War, but I couldn't find him.

Hello Marilyn, I found this on Wikipedia: Brain fever describes a medical condition where a part of the brain becomes inflamed and causes symptoms that present as fever. The terminology is dated, and is encountered most often in Victorian literature. Conditions that may be described as brain fever include: Encephalitis, an acute inflammation of the brain, commonly caused by a viral infection. Meningitis, the inflammation of the membranes covering the brain and spinal cord. Either of these conditions can cause fever and death but I would also assume if one had either of these diseases their behavior might mimic someone who has had a nervous breakdown. Hope this helps some.

I found the death certificates [actually cause of death listed in church records.] Two of my g-aunts had "brain fever" listed as the cause of death. Both women were in their 20s and had four healthy children. Recently I read a phrase in a novel that said someone died of "brain fever" and then said "what we would today call a nervous breakdown." That does not make sense to me. Anyone know the answer? Marilyn Kline Washington

There is a German term for a settlement in the US [or other countries, I guess] where the inhabitants from one particular village in Germany founds a similar village. Both St. Boniface and St Lawrence [to a lesser extent] fall into that category. Marilyn Kline Washington
