Here's an item from the CENTRE REPORTER. >From the CENTRE REPORTER of 24 Feb 1898 (abstracted/condensed): "Mrs. John Sweeney of Potters Mills died from stroke; aged 71 years. Buried Sprucetown Cemetery." Ref.: "Centre Hall Reporter, Centre Co., PA, 1891-1900, Births, Deaths, Marriages, Divorces, School Records, etc." (c Apr 2001) by Gerri L. Aitkin, p 221. Something doesn't add up here: You say first wife was Mary Ann (Margaret) Furey and that his 2nd wife was Mary Maze who died in the Johnstown Flood. Centre Co. mar. records shows that John Sweeny married Mary Maze 20 May 1847. The Johnstown Flood was in 1889, so if it was the former Mary Maze who died in the Johnstown Flood, then it was [apparently?] the former Miss Furey who died in 1898, per the CENTRE REPORTER item (above). At my age, I often get confused anymore (Ha!), so maybe I'm overlooking something here. Maybe he was married only once and she was Mrs. Mary Margaret (Furey) Maze when he married here in 1847. I'd need to know more of your sources to evaluate fully but imagine you've done that. John and his wife who died in 1898 are buried in the Sprucetown Cem., Potter Twp. You probably already knew that.

Fred, thanks but you found the "other side" of the family who lived in Potters Mill. mine were from Pleasant Gap mostly... your john was son of george, son of (GGGG) John .. my john is john son of (GGG( michael (brother of george) son of (GGGG) john odd that two john's would marry two Mary's but what the heck. mine married two Mary's! and GGGG John was married to a Mary as well. I know my john married Furey, because they have a bunch of children. then she died possibly in childbirth about 1845. great great John remarried... Mary Maze (could be MAYES) in 1847 and had 2 more kids... my great JOHN is youngest. I have been working on the Potters Mills side as well, but not too hard. I know about that Mary's death. our John died before his wife but the grave inscription is as follows (her body was not recoverd or identified after the flood) "Mary Belle Lontz, Tombston Inscriptions of Centre Co, page 41, SWANEY, John d. 8/28/1887, 77y4m26d wife Mary A. age 74y Lost in the Conemaugh flood 5/31/1889" BUT, thanks for the quick reply and info.... John's two sons Jeremiah (by Furey) and John (by Maze) are buried side by side in Pleasant Gap Lutheran Cemetery.

Bridget married JOhn McDermott ...kids...Everina, Charles, Johanna, Kate {Catherine}(married John Swaney{GG Grand}), Julia, Josephine, Susan, James, Mary (Mollie), Maggie (Margery), John any info on any of these lines would be appreciated. most of the McCafferty's and McDermott's seemed to disappear from the county by the 1890's Swaney's moved to Clearfield. John the younger Swaney had a brother from father John's first wife -- Mary Ann Furey-- Jeremiah Sweeny...who was a blacksmith and lived in Snow Shoe thanks so much Charlotte Swaney Schmotzer __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

David, I believe that John William Miller (b. 1815) may be a son of David Miller Sr. (1791-1850), my 5th great grandfather, and his wife, Elizabeth, who originally came from York County. They lived in Spring Twp., in the Pleasant Gap area, and he is buried at Zion. Their daughter Elizabeth Phoebe Miller (1830-1910) was my 4th great grandmother. She grew up in Pleasant Gap area and married George Chapman. They ended up, several moves later, in the Philipsburg area. George was a furnace worker and moved frequently as employment opportunities changed. I'd be interested in sharing data. Do you have any information on the early life of John William Miller? Several of his children -- David W., Elizabeth Ellen, Phoebe A., Alexander, and George T. are all names that are in my Chapman/Miller families.

Hi All, I research-Confer, Eisenhauer (Isenhauer, Eisenhower), Heckman, Smull. Justine

Interested in those related to and resting in Egg Hill Cemetery, Potter Township..

I am researching the MILLER family in Haines and Penn Townships of Northumberland/Centre County before 1820. The family lived near Aaronsburg and attended Aaronsburg Salem Lutheran Church. Associated names are HESS, KERSTETTER Specifically Frederick Miller and Rebecca Hess Daniel Miller ( War of 1812 Veteran) Any help appreciated! Carla Miller Davis

IT LOOKS LIKE you might be working on family of Peter and Sarah (Shuey) Schreck who had a dau. Alice Schreck who married John W. Lucas. Would that be a correct assumption? Another dau. of Peter and Sarah (Emma) married Alfred McClellan Rishel. I have some information on this fam. due to my SHUEY ancestry. Unfortunately, however, I have few details on fam. of John W. and Alice (Schreck) Lucas. If you could confirm specifically who you are interested in, what info you already have, and what you are seeking -- perhaps I can help. I hope so. --Fred Houts in MN ============================================ In a message dated 1/3/2007 9:10:34 A.M.
