North Cambria News, Thursday, December 19, 1940 FUNERAL OF SYLVESTER MILLER SATURDAY AT ST. BERNARD'S Sylvester Miller, age 69, died in Susquehanna Township. [no date given] He was the son of Charles and Rosalia [Bagley] Miller and was born in Susquehanna Township January 28, 1871. He married Sara Jane [Fritz], who survives. He is also survived by an adopted son, George [Cronauer] Miller, at nine. These brothers and sisters survive: Amandus, Pius, Mrs. David Edward Tovey, of Detroit. Mrs Joseph Vogel, Pittsburgh, Mrs Albert Dowey, WilksBarre, and Mrs. Anicetus Lehmier, of Spangler. George Cronauer Miller was the son of Sara Jane Fritz's niece, Eva Marie Smith who married Philip Cronauer and died during the Flu epidemic. Sara Jane Fritz was the daughter of Daniel and Matilda [Lute] Miller. I don't know where Sylvester Miller grew up, but he and Sara Jane lived at the next farm to the Fritz farm. The Cambrian Hills Golf Course is directly across the road from their former home. George Cronauer Miller married Anna Mae Selfrige, and they lived in that house until they moved to Eastern PA. The house is gone now. Eva Marie Smith was the daughter of Sara Jane Fritz's sister and her husband, Cora and George Smith. I believe the Smith family was from Curwensville originally and lived in Clymer. For some reason, Eva Marie spent most of her childhood living with her Fritz relatives, and attended school in Susquehanna Township. George Cronauer was also related to Miller's, but that was Philip Miller and Elizabeth Henges, emigrants. One of their daughters, Rose Anna Miller, married Jacob Cronauer. Jacob and Rose's oldest child was Philip Nicholas Cronauer, who married Mary Eva Smith and second, Mildred Weber. If these Millers are related, I don't know how. They all lived in the north of Elder Township, near Lantzy's Mill. Can anyone else fill me in on Sylvester Miller's family? I was told his parents were Charles Miller and Rosalia Bagley. I would like to know the first names of Sylvester's sisters [and sister-in-laws], if possible. Also, does anyone have a list of the Bagley family?. I know one of the Bagley girls married a Dillon who lived in that area. Barnesboro Star, Thursday, December 12, 1940 SYLVESTER MILLER Funeral services for Sylvester Miller, 69, prominent Susquehanna Township farmer, whose death occurred at 6 o'clock yesterday morning at his home, will be conducted at 9 O'clock Saturday morning in St. Bernard's Catholic Church, Hastings, by Rev. Fr. Adrian Krakowski, O.S.B., rector. Interment will be in the church cemetery. Mr. Miller was born in Susquehanna Township January 28, 1871, the son of Charles and Rosalia [Bagley] Miller. He is survived by his widow, Sara Jane Fritz and an adopted son, George, and the following brothers and sisters: Amandus; Pius: and Mary Blanche, wife of David Tovey, all of Detroit; Malvenia, wife of Joseph Vogel, Pittsburgh; Effie, wife of Albert Dowey, WillksBarre: and Rosalia, wife of Anicetus Lehmier, of Spangler.

The branch of the Pennsylvania Rail Road ended at Hastings, south of town at the area called first Webster Mines and then Coke Ovens [150 ovens at one time] and Lanark. The RR went north out of Hastings toward Clearfield County. Near Lantzy's Mill [Driscoll/Driskel Hollow] the line split at Garway Junction. The original RR continued north to Westover, Five Points [where my grandmother, Crissy Woods lived], LaJose [where there were several connections north and east] and went to Mahaffey where it joined the main line of the New York Central. I am not sure where, but somewhere the RR made a west turn to Glen Campbell in Indiana County. I believe it dead ended there. The original RR to Hastings [built 1887-1889 by imported Italian workers] was later split at Garway Junction and went to Elder's Mills [now Thomas Mills] then Patton [mines opened 1893], then Eckenrode Mills, then Bradley Junction, then Cresson where it joined the Mainline of the Pennsylvania RR. It was at one time the main connection between the northern New York Central and the mid-state Pennsylvania RR, carrying coal. At times other RR's used parts of the line, the Beech Creek RR from Centre County having a station at Patton. My grandfather, Ambrose Feighner, was a station agent there and also at Spangler. That line from Mahaffey to Cresson is still open. I can sometimes hear the whistle as the train goes through Patton, and used to hear it from my step-father's farm near Eckenrode Mills. I don't know what it carries now, but it does not run a regular schedule. Between 1890 and 1930 [approximately] the coal was usually being mined, and the RR carried mail and passengers. Some of the small mining towns had not roads, only the RR which was controlled by the mines. Besides regular social and business passengers, students would ride from the country or small towns to larger towns that had high schools. My mother's teacher at the Weber School [about 1925] would ride from Patton to Eckenrode Mills each morning, then walk up the hill to the Weber School. In the evening she would walk to Eckenrode Mills and wait for the train at the Eckenrode home. The passenger train service ended sometime in the 1930s. The last service I know about was about 1954 when the local Catholic elementary sschools sponsored a train trip to Pittsburgh. I know my school from Hastings got on the train at Patton. That is all I remember really.

Bill; Could you please email me off-line site at: jtr@atlanticbb.net Jim Rosenbaum

The rain was a serious concern, as it meant MUD. It was difficult to use a wagon or carriage. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when the mud froze for the winter. Once it snowed, a sleigh could be used. I remember reading that the winter after the Johnstown Flood of 1889, it did not freeze until February 12, which created more problems trying to clean up in Johnstown.

Mr. Aaron Goldman faintly denies the rumor that he is soon to wed one of South Fork's finest young ladies. The indications are that the rumor is not entirely without foundation. R. C.

Nothing in the world is more appropriate to give as a Christmas present than a good piece of Jewelry; you will then always be remembered. Can be found at Ike Wartelsky's Jewelry Store, Hastings, Pa. On Thanksgiving Day Messrs. John Lantzy, Sr. and A. Lantzy, of this place, started to Potter County, where they will spend about a week hunting deer. If there are any of the fleet footed animals in that county, they are in danger. When you want a first-class suit made to measure at about the same price as one bought ready made, call on Philip Glasser, Carrolltown. He never misses a fit, and his work is beyond criticism, while his prices are wonderfully low.

Musser, a bright young physician of Tyrone, died at his home in that place on Friday last in the thirty-fourth year of his age. His death was caused by pneumonia, and followed a brief illness. Deceased was a brother to Mr. E. R. Musser, Superintendent of the Cymbria Mines, near this place. Thomas Jackson, a huckster, residing near Beatty, was killed by the cars, Saturday night, about one mile west of Latrobe, while walking homeward on the railroad track. It is supposed that he was intoxicated when he met his death. He was 50 years of age. His wife was killed by the cars near the same spot, about six months ago. The Indiana Messenger, which has the reputation of being able to spin a yarn from the whole cloth, says that a young man of near Jacksonville paid a visit to his best girl, and when he was getting out of the buggy both the suspender buttons in the rear of his trousers gave way. To prevent embarrassment a couple of matches were substituted for the treacherous buttons, and all went well until, by friction against the back of the chair, the matches became ignited.

Notice the item about a local lady going to Philadelphia for surgery. NYC was also popular. Often the local doctor would accompany the patient on the passenger train. My great aunt, Catherine Miller Kline, wife of Baltzer Kline, went to NYC with Dr. Rice for a cancer operation. She died in NYC in 1902 and her body was returned on the train. Trains were often used to transport bodies after the Civil War made embalming and such transport possible. In this area, the Trolley car that ran from Patton to Carrolltown, Spangler and Barnesboro, [between about 1908 and 1924] was often used for a funeral or a wedding.

Notice the item about a local lady going to Philadelphia for surgery. NYC was also popular. Often the local doctor would accompany the patient on the passenger train. My great aunt, Catherine Miller Kline, wife of Baltzer Kline, went to NYC with Dr. Rice for a cancer operation. She died in NYC in 1902 and her body was returned on the train. Trains were often used to transport bodies after the Civil War made embalming and such transport possible. In this area, the Trolley car that ran from Patton to Carrolltown, Spangler and Barnesboro, [between about 1908 and 1924] was often used for a funeral or a wedding.

Legal age in PA was 21 years for everything, including marriage, until the Federal Government changed the voting age to 18 in the 1970s. For a marriage license, a parent or guardian of a minor [under 21] had to go to the Courthouse with the child to sign a permission form. These forms are available with the marriage licenses at the Old Jail Storage. Court - I find it hard to understand the extreme variation in the sentences for murder. Hangings were performed at the Old Jail in Ebensburg until about 1910, when the State took over. The Ebensburg Newspapers would report the execution. There is a list of all PA executions on the Internet.

Dec. 2 - In the criminal court here yesterday evening sentence of death was pronounced by Judge Doty on William Freeman, who murdered his supposed wife at Mt. Pleasant a few months ago. It was an affecting scene. It was the first death sentence ever pronounced by Judge Doty, and he was moved to tears, as were the court officers and the members of the bar. Frank Williams, who killed ex-Policeman John Adle, was sentenced to the penitentiary for 17 years and 5 months. Gust Rosencranz, who murdered a deputy sheriff at Moorwood, was given seven years in the penitentiary. John Stahlnecker, who killed Frederick Dodds, was sent to the Huntingdon reformatory. Harry Hatch, convicted of shooting Christopher Love, at Derry was sent to the workhouse for five months. Lizzie Long, convicted of concealing the death of her infant child was given 90 days in jail. - - - The Parents Objected. What is considered a very unusual, if not entirely unprecedented, case came up in the Blair County court at Hollidaysburg Saturday when Attorney Fisher, of that city, petitioned the court to appoint a guardian for Mary Belicher. The petition sets forth that the parents of the girl, who is not yet of age, decline to consent to her marriage to a young man who desires her. The appointment of a guardian is desired in order that he may authorize the taking out of a marriage license, which is now impossible owing to the opposition of the parents. The court has granted a rule to hear arguments on the matter December 10. - - - Ebensburg's New Brick Building.

Someone asked about the McQueeney family in Hastings. Here is the marriage of John McQueeney to Maggie Nagle, the daughter of Michael Nagle. Michael Nagle ran a hotel in Hastings, and after Michael's death, John McQueeney ran it. That is all I know about the family. I think they were emigrants from Ireland [although John might be a first generation American] and I don't remember seeing the name for very long. I think the family moved away from Hastings. Court Cases -- at this time, both criminal cases and civil cases had to be brought by a private person [not the district attorney] and the costs of the case were then assigned by the Judge after he made his decision. Most often the guilty person had to pay the costs, although a division of costs could be made or the costs dismissed.

The term prmises(sic) to be the longest held in the county for years, as the criminal and civil lists are both exceptionally large. The time of the court on Monday was taken up in hearing motions and petitions presented by the members of the Bar. Lizzie Thompson proprietress of a palatial bawdy house in Johnstown was acquitted of a charge of selling liquor without a license, but ordered to pay the costs. The grand jury ignored the bill against Hiram Webb, for malicious mischief, and ordered the prosecutor, Daniel Allison, to pay the costs. Daniel had not the necessary cash about his clothes, and his credit was not good for the amount, so at present he is in jail. Jacob F. Smith was found guilty of assault and battery on his wife. Not yet sentenced. Samuel Snyder was found guilty and sentenced to the penitentiary one year and three months for receiving stolen goods. Harry Saylor pleaded guilty to larceny. William Yeager pleaded guilty to receiving stolen goods, and was sentenced to jail for ninety days from October 18th. A number of cases have been settled, including that of J. D. Ritter vs D. E. Notley. In the case of a road in Allegheny Township, an order to open the proceedings was refused and the costs put on the petitioners, except for remonstrances, depositors and their witnesses. - - - Reception at Barnesboro. Some time since Dr. J. Sloan Miller, of Barnesboro, was married to Miss Katie Hauk, of Purchase Line, Indiana County. The young lady's parents objected to her marriage on account of her youth, but the couple surmounted this difficulty by a quiet trip to Canada. On their return the people of Barnesboro, among whom the Doctor is very popular, gave them a magnificent reception at the Ritter House at which about forty couples of the most prominent society people of Northern Cambria were present. The reception was held on Monday night, and was a great social success. Dr. Rice and wife were among the guests from this place. - - - Work of a Sharper. The Second National bank of Altoona, which only recently reopened after having lost $100,000 through the peculations of the cashier, was victimized against last week out of $1,188 by a clever sharper. On Friday last a man giving the name of "Brown" deposited a New York draft for $1,200 in the bank. On Saturday he returned and stated that he could get 3 per cent interest on the money at another bank and that he would like to have it. The cashier paid him out $1,200 in cash and the man disappeared and has not since been seen. The draft was returned with the information that it was good for only $12 and that it had been very cleverly raised to $1,200. - - - Married. In St. Bernard's church, this place, on Thursday of last week, Mr. John McQueeney and Miss Maggie Nagle were united in marriage by Rev. Father Edwin, the pastor. The attendants were Mr. Milton Kirkpatrick and Miss Annie McQueeney. Both of the young people are well-known and esteemed, and they start out in life with the best wishes of a host of friends, among whom the TRIBUNE offers its congratulations, and hopes that their pathway may be smooth pleasant. - - - Notice. I still have quite a number of unsettled book accounts of the firm of Yothers & McNelis. All accounts not settled by December 1st, will likely be sold at auction to the highest bidder some time during the month of December. R. J.

We've had 3 people just today who have been automatically unsubscribed from the mailing list, so I'm sending this as a reminder to all of you AOL users.   For whatever the reason, when you mark an email as spam, AOL works very hard to prevent you from getting email from that source again.  This is wonderful if you're dealing with normal spam.  However, when someone on a mailing list (like Rootsweb) gets a virus, and you earmark the email as spam, AOL unsubscribes you from those mailing lists, too.  NOT so good.   Yes, the email is spam.  But, PLEASE, just delete it.  DO NOT mark it as spam or you, too, will be automatically unsubscribed.  Diann and I aren't doing this.  It's just the way the system works.   If that happens to you, you're more than welcome to subscribe again.  You don't have to ask permission.  Just do it.   Trust me -- if you have done something that required us to unsubcribe you from the mailing list, you will know.    If you become an "accidental spammer", your email address will be placed on "moderated" status.  This just means that any emails you send to the list won't just automatically appear.  They'll have to be approved by me or Diann first.  Let one of know that your computer is healthy again, and we will take you off moderation.  Viruses happen.  We've both been there, done that.   Keep your virus protection updated and run it often.   Thank you,   Lynne

The Indiana Messenger, which has the reputation of being able to spin a yarn from the whole cloth, says that a young man of near Jacksonville paid a visit to his best girl, and when he was getting out of the buggy both the suspender buttons in the rear of his trousers gave way.

A conflagration was narrowly averted and the young man is not over his fright yet. - - - The most beautiful display of CHRISTMAS GIFTS Is to be found at Ike Wartelsky's. Jewelry Store, Hastings, Pa.
