Ok great. Let me get through this other information on the family & see if I can find anything on John. I will know exactly where to look then, thank you. I am pretty certain I do have Garvin's in our Ebbs line also. If you have it handy there that you can scan & send it might be a little easier for me then to have to go back & check the archives. I don't know if I ever checked the archives of Mifflin Co. before. Thanks for the information. Looking back at my Anna M. Ebbs. I see James Harry Ebbs did have a Mary Anna but she is accounted for. Descendants of James Harry are the ones that sent me new information on their family. You never know what could be in there though. Jeremiah's siblings are James Harry who married George W. Baker. He was a Methodist Minister & they moved to Kansas. George Lyon Ebbs married A. Winifred Porter. I do not show them leaving Centre Co. Harry Gray Ebbs married Barbara Ellen Beck then Anna E. Heberling. They also appeared to have stayed in Centre Co. Eva Luella Ebbs b. 03/1868 she was a music teacher & died in Tyrone, PA Blair Co. My missing Anna M. was the daughter of Jeremiah [Emanuel II, Emanuel I] Ebbs & Sarah H. [last name of Sarah H. unknown at this time]. Children of Jeremiah & Sarah 1. Ellsworth J. Ebbs b. 1861 in Center Co. I don't have him past 1882. He married Charlotte Zone on 08/31/1882 in Centre Co. 2. Maria Elizabeth (Lizzie) was living in California at the time of her brother John Wilson's death on 10/06/1938. I really don't have to much on her either, perhaps she is a connection on the new information I received. I remember seeing California there somewhere. 3. Wilson John b. 08/21/1864 d. around 10/06/1938. John Wilson lived in Altoona, PA Blair Co., but died in DuBois, PA where he died at the hospital from a fall at work. He married Elizabeth Ellenberger b. 01/21/1862 in Halfmoon Twp. She died around 02/22/1939 at the home of her son Chester in Port Matilda. John & Elizabeth's children were Chester, Louis B., Paul G., Samuel Clyde & Ralph E. 1900 & 1910 the family was living in Wilkinsburg, Allegheny Co., PA Ward 2 & on Jeanette St. In 1920 John lived in Altoona & Lizzie lived with her brother in Halfmoon Twp., Centre Co., PA. 4. Anna M. B. Abt. 1869. 07/14/1870 Centre Co. 1 year old, 1880 Anna M. 11. Centre Co., Taylor Twp. That's all I have on this Anna M. are no marriage records in Centre Co. or Cambria County on her & no death record in Centre Co. on her. Anything there look at all familiar? ----- Original Message ----- From: Hasson To: [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, January 24, 2007 5:58 PM Subject: Re: Ebbs Susan, No, I didn't get the previous note. If I remember correctly, I got the information when I still subscribed to Ancestry.com. I have the rest of the information you would need if you would like to send for it. Directions are at the following website: http://olivetreegenealogy.com/articles/persi.shtml In addition, I also copied a post from Barbara Lake Peters on Jan. 2, 1999, on the Mifflin County, PA Query Forum about Emmanuel Ebbs (1743 - 1840), whose lineage led to a Bess Garvin who was eligible for DAR status. This info was taken form a DAR lineage book, also on Ancestry. It has Barbara's email as [email protected] . She is also researching Ebbs. I can scan and send the information if you want it. Let me know if you find anything "juicy"!

I had just finished off a note about a half hour or so ago & sent if off but apparently the internet was down for a little bit so I figure it is gone. Anyways, just wanted to let you know Emanuel I who fought in the Revolutionary War was my Emanuel. If your Anna is connected I am sure he would have been an ancestor of hers also. I was not aware of a John in the Revolutionary War. Is that information on-line? I believe there is a John in the information I just received. Hopefully, I will be able to get to look over the new information I've received in the next day or 2. Susan -------------- Original message -------------- From: "Hasson" <[email protected]> Susan, I found the funeral card for Anna Mary and the dod was April 18, 1955. It seems to me that I have more information about her, but, I have been trying to "organize" my things, and , well. . . I'm sure you know. I did print off an application for a death certificate and am sending that on today. I also found a paper that I had printed from the internet in 2000 from the Periodical Source Index which has a few Ebbs surnames. One is "Emmanuel Ebbs, 1743 - 1840, Revolutionary War, Eng: Maryland and Pennsylvania." Another is "Ebbs Family, Renfrew Co., Ontario", and the third is "John Ebbs, Revolutionary War, VA". From what I can find now, it costs $7.50 for the article and then so much for each page. Are you familiar with these names and places? Is this one of the Emmanuels from your research? I will see what else I can find that is fact. I remember calling the funeral home that has Anna's records so I'll have to find those notes!! Talk to you soon.

That would be great if we could connect another Ebbs. Good luck, it's not like she's the only Ebbs out there we haven't been able to connect yet. I am hoping to find lots more with this new information. Now all I need is the chance to get to it. Susan ----- Original Message ----- From: Hasson To: slbearer Sent: Tuesday, January 23, 2007 7:50 AM Subject: Re: Ebbs Susan, I saw your note on the Blair list. There was no obituary in the Pgh. papers, but, I have some other information that I don't have at my fingertips right now. I will check that information and get back to you. There were Hasson's in Blair and Centre Counties during the time periods you mentioned, so that may have been where Anna met the Hassons. Thanks for your help. If I send for her death certificate, maybe that will help. Until later, Debbie ----- Original Message ----- From: slbearer To: Hasson Sent: Tuesday, January 23, 2007 12:55 AM Subject: Re: Ebbs No guarantees but I would bet your Anna fits in there somewhere. I do not have any proof as of yet but I am missing a Anna M. B. Abt 1869 in Pa. Daughter of Jeremiah Ebbs [Emanuel II, Emanuel I] & Sarah ? 07/14/1870 Halfmoon Twp., Centre Co., PA. Annie 1. 1880 Taylor Twp. Centre Co., Anna M. 11. I have nothing on her after that. Do you have an obituary or anything else to go on? We had other Ebbs families move towards that way & go into the Pgh area. I have an Annie from Sewickly Twp., who I am not sure if I have ever been able to place. Just something I remember as a child. There are also other Ebbs children in the Pgh area that have not been explained yet. I do not believe Jeremiah's daughter Anna is connected to them though. More research is definately needed. I think we should post that question to the Cambria website & see if anyone bites. Which website did you pick up this note on? Any other information you could possibly find would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for the information. She will definately be kept in mind on this search. I will let you know if I come across anything. I have to run for now though. ----- Original Message ----- From: Hasson To: [email protected] Sent: Monday, January 22, 2007 9:42 PM Subject: Ebbs I have never seen my Ebbs on any list! My Father-in-law's grandmother was Anna Mary Ebbs (dod = 1955). She lived in the Allentown section of Pgh. at her death and was married to a Harry Schwarm, so she would have been Anna Schwarm. Does this fit with Emanuel? The only other thing I know about her is that she must have lived in Beaver County for a while as she had a child out of wedlock (we think) to Charles C.
