    3. Only suggestion I can give is that Tunnel Hill Boro is on the Blair County line and is separate from Gallitzin itself. Some of the people who listed Tunnel Hill Boro were actually living in Blair County, especially Bennington--which had a post office. Try checking the cemeteries in Galllitzin Township. There is a cemetery that was was United Methodist from Bennington, but I don't know the location of the cemetery on the email sites. The actual location is Blair County and Logan Township.

I am researching Harry George MOORE (1894-1934) who married Beatrice Marie Myers. As far as I have been told he was adopted by John Moore and Isabelle (Isabella, Bella Bendon) I find John and Isabelle and the year of birth changes from census to census. from John being around 1843 and Isabelle being closer to 1844-48 From the 1900 to the 1910 census for Tunnel Hill John goes from being 4 years older to 3 years younger than Isabelle. In 1920 John is a year older. (Still on Tunnel Hill.) My Great Aunt (Harry's Daughter) still lives on Tunnel Hill and in speaking with her a few years ago she said that John and Isabelle had no other children. But I stumbled upon a John R. Moore who seems to fit into the puzzle. But he had a daughter Bertha Moore in 1876. He also had a number of brothers and sisters and I find some overlap but I am not sure if these are two different people. As a follow up I was also told that Harry's birth parents were James Gainer and Sarah or "Sadie" She mentions that Sarah was married about 5 times, and it seems from my notes and the recording I took that her last names included Gainer, and it sounded like Crawford, and Weaver were two others. (It was a quick laughing mention and I didn't realize at the time how important it would be - Out of respect I didn't want to push on what used to be considered more family secrets) At first I was told that James died by his own hand, but now it may be that it was some sort of accident. I have very few links or leads to go on. I have searched Cambria and Indiana Counties, and don't see anything for them. The only link maybe a Sarah Moore that would have been a niece of John and Isabella as it seems that family would take care of family, but other than seeing the name in the tree if I have the correct John Moore, it is nothing more than a guess. If anyone has any overlap or insight into this, or even so additional avenues that may be work looking into I would greatly appreciate it.
