The late Terry L Kruise compiled the St. Augustine Cemetery Book in 2000. "A detailed list of persons known buried in the St. Augustine Cemetery, Clearfield Twp, Cambria Co, PA from 1845-1999. Information added from various family histories, obituaries, Cambria County courthouse records, Father Ledoux's "Catholic Vital Records of Central Pennsylvania", the St. Augustine Cemetery Record Book and more." A few folks have asked if the book was still available. His family has generously agreed to continue offering the book. We cannot discuss price on this list and I will not post an address on list. Email me off list for order price and address. Regards, Jane Tripp jctripp@charter.net

Just a comment the Bertram family has a Facebook page "The Bertrams of Cambria County" Mike -------Original Message------- From: Marilyn Date: 1/7/2013 7:54:40 PM To: pce53703@gmail.com; pacambri@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [PACAMBRI] Peter Bertram m Elizabeth Baker Any obits or other information you may have would be welcome. I became interested due to the Haid-Hite family connection, the family of my step-father, Gerald Hite. His father was William Hite Sr. And his grandfather, the emigrant, was Raphael Haid-Hite. There are still Haid farmers in Allegheny Township. Gerald Hite told me that Raphael changed the spelling of the family name from "Haid" to "Hite" because the mail was getting mixed up. Gerald knew there was a family connection with the Bertram family, but that was all he knew. Valentine Haid came to the US from Hohlenzollern Sigmarigan sometime before 1839. He was married in Germany to Martina Heim. I have not been able to find Valentine Haid-Hite's death or burial information. Martina's marriage to John Bertram [in Ledoux] mentions that she is the widow of Valentine Haid I assume Valentine Haid actually arrived in the US, but I am not sure of that. Martina [Martha] seems to be a Haid name. Some other researchers found family lists through the Mormon records. Patti Hamill has been "translating" them. Some Catholic churches, mostly in Southern Germany, kept lists of each family, starting with each new marriage and adding each child as it was born. According to this, Valentine Haid-Hite had two married daughters who stayed in Germany, and about 3 or 4 children who emigrated with them to the US. John Bertram and Martina are in the 1850 Census in Allegheny Township, with her Haid children and one Haid-Hite child, Peter Bertram, born to John Bertram. Martina's son, Raphael Haid-Hite, purchased a farm on the Old Dutch Road. Coming from the end near the Chest Springs-Loretto Road, it is just past the Chest Creek and the Railroad crossing of the railroad that goes between Eckenrode Mills and Bradley Junction. The old farm house and farm buildings are gone, but Raphael's son and grandson, both named William Haid-Hite, kept the land and built new homes. I am not sure which of "Bill" Hite Jr's sons own the farm. This is the same family of Hites who own the coal and gravel supply on Rt. 219 near Sunset Homes.

I came across a second Peter Bertram marrried to an Ellizabeth Baker. I think this is a second set of people. Can anyone help me? Can anyone go back to grandparents?

Any obits or other information you may have would be welcome. I became interested due to the Haid-Hite family connection, the family of my step-father, Gerald Hite. His father was William Hite Sr. and his grandfather, the emigrant, was Raphael Haid-Hite. There are still Haid farmers in Allegheny Township. Gerald Hite told me that Raphael changed the spelling of the family name from "Haid" to "Hite" because the mail was getting mixed up. Gerald knew there was a family connection with the Bertram family, but that was all he knew. Valentine Haid came to the US from Hohlenzollern Sigmarigan sometime before 1839. He was married in Germany to Martina Heim. I have not been able to find Valentine Haid-Hite's death or burial information. Martina's marriage to John Bertram [in Ledoux] mentions that she is the widow of Valentine Haid. I assume Valentine Haid actually arrived in the US, but I am not sure of that. Martina [Martha] seems to be a Haid name. Some other researchers found family lists through the Mormon records. Patti Hamill has been "translating" them. Some Catholic churches, mostly in Southern Germany, kept lists of each family, starting with each new marriage, and adding each child as it was born. According to this, Valentine Haid-Hite had two married daughters who stayed in Germany, and about 3 or 4 children who emigrated with them to the US. John Bertram and Martina are in the 1850 Census in Allegheny Township, with her Haid children and one Haid-Hite child, Peter Bertram, born to John Bertram. Martina's son, Raphael Haid-Hite, purchased a farm on the Old Dutch Road. Coming from the end near the Chest Springs-Loretto Road, it is just past the Chest Creek and the Railroad crossing of the railroad that goes between Eckenrode Mills and Bradley Junction. The old farm house and farm buildings are gone, but Raphael's son and grandson, both named William Haid-Hite, kept the land and built new homes. I am not sure which of "Bill" Hite Jr's sons own the farm. This is the same family of Hites who own the coal and gravel supply on Rt. 219 near Sunset Homes. There are records of two Peter Bertrams married to two Elizabeth Bakers. "Baker" may also be "Becker." I got some information from Jean Sharbaugh, and she says that John2's father is Phillip1. I think that John Bertram had a close relative, probably a brother, who emigrated with himm Marilyn Kline Washington -----Original Message----- From: pce53703 <pce53703@gmail.com> To: PACAMBRI <PACAMBRI@rootsweb.com> Cc: marilyn <marilynkwash@aol.com> Sent: Mon, Jan 7, 2013 6:56 pm Subject: Re: [PACAMBRI] Peter Bertram m Elizabeth Baker If anyone has info or suggestions, I'm interested on this as well, as Peter and John Bertram are direct ancestors for me.

The Tribune, Hastings, PA, FRI 30 NOV 1894, VOL VI., NO. 45 Page 5, Column 2 AMERICAN AGRICULTURIST WEEKLY. Our readers will doubtless have observed the fact that this paper has not been willing to lend itself to increase the circulation of doubtful publications, which constantly flood the offices of respectable country newspapers with offers of cheap clubbing rates. Such papers are generally trash, filled with doubtful advertisements and dear to the subscriber if they cost him nothing. An exception to this rule, however, are the Pittsburgh Post, the New York World, and the American Agriculturalist. We have made a very satisfactory arrangement with the latter publication, by which we can give it to our subscribers at the low rate of $1.75 for it and the TRIBUNE. The American Agriculturalist is the leading agricultural journal of the whole world. It is in magazine form, columns 30 pages each of the best, most practical and therefore valuable reading matter, and should be in every home and farm in this country. The regular price is $1.00 a year, but we can give it to those of our subscribers who pay in advance for fifty cents. Send us your name and get a sample copy free, and if you like it, and your paper is paid in advance, send fifty cents and get it one year. We make nothing on the combination, but would like to see all of our friends among the farmers get this excellent journal at this cheap rate. - - - School Report.

At Carlisle, Pa., Monday, in a case involving a violation of the Brooks High License Law, in which the defense had moved for a new trial on the ground of alleged conflict between rule{?} and the body of the law, Judge Sadler over-ruled the motion but at the same time gave expression to the belief that the law is not constitutional in so far as it relates to Sunday sales, and the Court gave still clearer expression to its belief by simply sentencing the defendant on the count of having sold liquor without a license. That such an important defect should have so long escaped the scrutiny of the Bench and Bar of the State will seem little less than incredible to the lay mind, but Judge Sadler's decision is sufficient to cast a cloud upon the section in question, under cover of which other violators of the law may escape justice for a season, and until the law can be made to conform to the Constitution. - - - THE BEACH HOUSE SEA GIRT, NEW JERSEY.

Look out for Wm. F. Gable Co.'s new "ad". It will interest and save you money. Prof. Jones, Principal of the schools in this place, is teaching a well attended night school. The editor of this paper was confined to his room by illness a couple of days this week. Cook, Salmond & Cowden, the great Altoona dry goods house, has a local reading notice of interest in this issue. Andrew Lantzy, the wholesale liquor dealer, has had a new street lamp put in position in front of his place of business. FOR RENT. - A first-class store-room next door to the postoffice. Rent reasonable. Apply at the TRIBUNE office. A dangerous counterfeit of what is known as the Windom $2 silver certificate is abroad. It is said to be almost perfect. An arrangement has been made whereby the clothing store of Sol H. Wartelsky in this place has been reopened for business. A number of prominent people from this place went to Ebensburg on Tuesday evening to attend one of the lecture's connected with the institute. M. H. Shultz, a prosperous farmer living near Altoona, was run over and instantly killed by a car on the Logan Valley electric line about four o'clock on Monday evening. Some time during Monday night an unknown man was murdered in the woods near Tyrone by having his throat cut with a razor, and his remains were found latter by a passerby. A little son of Otto Carlson, of this place, died on Monday and was buried on Wednesday in the Swedish cemetery in this place. He was only twelve years of age, and his death resulted from heart failure. A goodly number of people in this place have provided themselves with thanksgiving turkeys without either raising or buying them. This does not mean that they stole them either. William Woodley died at the home of his father, Martin Woodley, of Elder Township, on Friday, and was buried in the Catholic cemetery in this place on Sunday afternoon. He was about 30 years of age. Postoffice Inspector Hugh J. Gorman recently visited the office in this place. He was detailed to adjust certain inaccuracies in the accounts of previous postmasters, but incidentally took a look about the office, which he found in excellent shape. Mary Washington, a colored woman well known in Shalersville and the West End, Pittsburg, died Monday night at her home, in Shalersville, of pneumonia. She was five feet seven inches in height and weighed 460 pounds. Mr. John Sharbaugh, one of the oldest and best known residents of the Summit, this county, fell from a ladder one day last week and sustained a fracture of the thigh. He is recovering slowly from the accident, which his age rendered exceedingly serious. One day last week Drs. Rice, of this place, Hazlett, of Cherrytree, and Bennett, of Mahaffey, performed a delicate and difficult operation on Mrs. Lowman, of Cherrytree, for the relief of cancer in her breast. The patient is doing well and will recover completely. Mr. A. Dietrick, as usual, scooped his full share of the goods at W. A. Lantzy's shooting match. He brought home four turkeys. Mr. Dietrick and Jacob Bollinger, intend to spend a couple of weeks in the wilds of Huntingdon County in the near future in pursuit of bear, deer, and other small game. Mr. Angus N. Gill, for two years foreman on this paper, has resigned his position, which is now filled by Mr. H. A. Morris. Mr. Gill is a young man of unusual worth and character, and he took with him on his departure from this place the best wishes of all who came in contact with him during his residence here. Philip Pringle, grandfather of J. W. and father of the venerable William Pringle, of Summerhill, planted an apple tree in New Germany, Croyle Township, in 1800. It still bears fruit, a specimen taken from the tree a few days since having been brought to our office on Saturday, and it bids fair to last as many years longer.

Formerly the trains ran as far as Mahaffey and returned to Williamsport, while the freight trains ran on to Patton. Hereafter the morning train leaving Clearfield will continue on to Patton, arriving at the latter place at 1 p.m. Returning it will leave Patton about 4 p.m., arriving at Clearfield in time to connect with the Clearfield & Mahoning Road for Dubois and Punxsutawney; also connecting with the evening training from Dubois with sleeper attached, and will take the sleeper on to Philadelphia. By new arrange-(sic) the trip from DuBois, Curwensville, Clearfield, and intermediate stations to Patton can be made in one day, giving about three hours at the latter place and a lay-over at Mahaffey of several hours will be avoided. - - - Advertised Letters The following letters remain uncalled for in the postoffice at Hastings for the week ending November 26, 1894: T.F.

Those who have been there do not hesitate to say that Cook, Salmond & Cowden, the leading Dry Goods house of Altoona, have the largest and most satisfactory stock of coats, capes and furs to be found in Central Pennsylvania. They have the very latest styles and prices are quite reasonable. Their Millinery too, is the best and cheapest in the city and they have the lead in trade. It will pay for any one to go there for fashionable goods when they can make their own selections and will find it cheaper and more satisfactory than to send to Pittsburg or Philadelphia. There will be some news from this great house every week and about their immense Holiday attraction. - - - Drowned at South Fork. Thomas Dalton, of South Fork, was drowned in the Conemaugh river at the P. R. R. stone bridge at that place Saturday evening. He was crossing the bridge and in an endeavor to get out of the way of a train stepped off the bridge, falling 25 feet into the stream. His body was found late Saturday night in 12 feet of water. The remains were taken to his boarding house in South Fork, thence conveyed by railroad to his home in Bedford county for burial. The deceased was about 27 years old. - - - For Thirty-five Cents.

This offer is made only to readers of THE TRIBUNE, and has for its object the circulation of sound Democratic doctrine. The price named is that quoted us by the paper to be used as a premium, and we will get nothing for postage or trouble. Show this offer to your friends, and some in with 35 cents and we will have the World sent to your address for six months. tf - - - Argument for the Coal Lands Postponed. The regular meeting of the Board of Property, which was to have been held Tuesday in Harrisburg, to hear argument in the proceedings instituted by B. J. Wehrle, of Indiana, to secure posession(sic) of valuable coal lands in Cambria, Clearfield, and Somerset Counties, claimed by the Cambria Iron Company of Johnstown, has been continued by agreement of the parties interested. These cases have been pending for over two years, and will have to be decided by the new Board, as the present Board - consisting of Secretary Harrity, Attorney-General Hensel, and Secretary of Internal Affairs Stewart - will not meet again before the change of Administration.

The Tribune, Hastings, PA, FRI 30 NOV 1894, VOL VI., NO. 45 Page 1, Column 3 The Source of Beauty At the latest meeting of the Professional woman's League of New York Mrs. Eleanor Kirk Ames read a paper on a subject of "Perpetual Youth," in which she laid down the doctrine, well exemplified in his comely pink cheeks and mass of soft white hair, that in order to be beautiful women only need to live on higher planes. Mrs. Ames made one of her best points, although she did not claim for it originality, when she said: "Ladies, beauty is not so much a matter of features as of freshness, vitality and expression. The woman with a clear eye and a bright, sunny countenance, who smiles into your face and grasps your hand with love and power, is a beautiful woman." More specifically, the lecturer impressed upon her hearers the idea that spiritual thought, continually persisted in, was the wellspring of youth and beauty, and that "this continual living on a high plane of spirituality would enable them to stop even the ravages of time." So much has recently been said of the higher plane of politics in connection with a canvass in which money was poured out freely that any movement bearing the "higher plane" brand is apt to engender mistrust. But Mrs. Ames has struck the right path in her search for the fountain of perpetual youth. It was in shallow philosophy which said that beauty is but skin deep. True beauty is from the depths of the soul. It can have no meaner origin; and they who seek the chemist's shop for Beauty's touch are wasting time and money. The alchemy they search for is within themselves. The best complection-impover in the daily practice of the homely virtues and beautitudes. - - - Peace Negotiations. The official announcement by the Japanese Government, which comes by way of Berlin, that it is ready to listen to any propositions that China may have to make through the medium of the American Minister at Tokio, indicates that Japan now regards the war as virtually won. The fall of Port Arthur is practically decisive. It would cost time, of course, and some more fighting to advance further, but the Chinese are whipped, and they know it, and they might as well make terms now as later. The selection of the United States Minister as the medium of communication is in accordance with the previous understanding. Both countries can confide in the impartial justice of this government, which also can command the respect of all the European powers as no one of them could do. This government has not undertaken to arbitrate between China and Japan, but merely to use its good offices in the settlement of the results of the war. It is already sufficiently clear what these are to be. Japan will insist upon the surrender of all pretense of Chinese authority in Corea, and upon an indemnity that will compensate her for her own expenditures, and cripple the further warlike enterprises of her enemy. There is a still more important result which it will not be necessary to mention in the negotiations. That is that Japan has taken her place at one bound among the powers of the world, and one whose friendship is worth cultivating. - - - Dogs Murder Sheep. Some ten days ago dogs killed 36 sheep belonging to William and Thos. Doran, near Wilmore, and wounded several others; on Tuesday night of last week they returned and killed eleven more, again injuring a number of others. The sheep were appraised by Messrs. Peter Burtnett and George W. Settlemyer, Auditors of Summerhill Township, the value set upon the animals ranging from $1.25 to $3 each. - - - For Sale. If you are looking for bargains, don't miss this - property corner of Third Avenue and Beaver Street. Store and dwelling at a chance in a life time, two lots on Third Avenue and Coleman Street, one lot on Spangler Street between Second and Third Avenues, two new two-horse wagons, two new two-horse double sleds, three new one-horse double sleds, three new one-horse double sleds, one carload baled bay, and a whole house full of other bargains.
