Someone asked about the Sibert family and I just found this article. He ran a garage that sold new cars, and supplied the driver's ed. car at Hastings Elder HS through 1960 when the school merged to form Cambria Heights. After that three of his sons ran the garage. There was a second Seybert family in Westover, but they came from Syberton, near Chest Springs. The parents of a large family died, leaving dependent children who were adopted by various Clearfield County families around Westover.
