Hello, I recently read online the declaration of intent and Naturalization records for my ancestor Felix Short and his brother Owen Short. Owen Short was born about 1808 in County Tyrone, Northern Ireland. He was Catholic. He came to USA in 1828 and in 1832 was living in Centre Co., PA. I have no more information on him. I would like to find his wife and kids and the rest of his story. Felix Short was born 1799, same place as his brother above, and came to USA in 1832. He was married in NI to Letitia Magee, and they were living in Centre Co PA in 1833 when he filed his Dec. of Intent, and in 1837 he was Naturalized in Centre Co, PA. However from 1840-1893 he lived in Carrolltown, Cambria Co PA, where he is buried. I found a Hugh Short who stated he had come to USA about 1801, and he was Naturalized in Centre Co PA in 1806, he was also from Northern Ireland. I have no idea if Hugh Short relates to Felix and his brother Owen Short. Perhaps Hugh Short was their paternal uncle and they were following in his footsteps. I would like to find more information on Hugh Short and his family. Best regards, Lilly Martin descendant of Felix Short

I am formally requesting permission to use the information you posted about your dad and the Clara Price Memorial Stone. I am sensitive of copyright issues and will not use this without your permission. So you know, I'm not planning a big time book. It will not be to publish to make money. It will be self-published and certainly nothing fancy. I may end up publishing it at somewhere like Staples. I anticipate approximately 250 copies, mainly to be given away as gifts. In some cases, I may sell it for some exorbitant price, with most of the proceeds going to the National Multiple Sclerosis Society. In other words, I will also be using it as a fund raiser. Please let me know if I may use your material in the material I'm writing. I fully intend to credit you. Thank you for your consideration. I'll be awaiting your response. Best Wishes, Harry L.

Or maybe the Library would like to have it. Let me know. In the 1900 census it has Albert age 45, Elizabeth age 46 and twin daughter's Roxie 17 and Helen 17. They lived on High Street, Bellefonte, PA. Beverly Walker walker0369@msn.com

Hello Sandra, You should write to the Centre County Library in Bellefonte, paroom@centrecountylibrary.org, and ask them to check the Philipsburg Journal newspaper obituary index. They can send you copies of the obits from the microfilm for a small fee.
