Does anyone know if Allegheny Township in Cambria County was part of the one by the same name in northern Somerset County? I relatives of one family from the Somerset Township and don't know if I need to look in both places. I did try both, but didn't see any of same names, after Cambria County was cut out of Bedford & Somerset counties on the south.

No. Allegheny Twp is Cambria Co is the remainder of a much larger Allegheny Twp that was in Huntingdon Co, before Cambria Co was created in 1804. The Allegheny Twp in Somerset Co is in the southern part of the county, near the turnpike. Conemaugh Twp in Cambria Co was once part of the township of the same name in Somerset Co, before Cambria was formed in 1804. Brian
That's right. Allegheny co, cambria is the center of Cambria County. `north of Cambria and south of Clearfield Co is from Frankstown Twp, Huntingdon Co.
