Can someone send the URL for the website for the Clearfield Depot Fire? Thanks, Linda
A couple of years ago I managed to get to the Clearfield County Fair. The local fire companies had a wall of pictures under the Grandstand of old fires in the county. The Progress may have some record in their archives. The Progress under George Scott revived and printed a lot of old history and photos. My father clipped some of these out. I am working a day job that leaves little time for organizing his collection of obits, newspaper clippings and his collection of which farm is it? Actually the farm I grew up on was included in that series. Try the Historical Society, the Joseph and Elizabeth Library, the Progress or finding someone involved in the display at the fair. Jean

It led me to Ancestry.com which has Clearfield Progress from 1913. I have one of the newspapers in front of me from Sept 7, 2006 and at the top of the front page is says 'Our 93rd Year' so if the article exists it was not from the Clearfield Progress.

Would like copy of marriage record for Temple Smith & Martha Scott 7 Sept 1864 Osceola Clearfield County. Am hoping it will tell me who her parents were. If someone could tell me what the local charge is per copy and what they would like to send it to me I would be so greatful. Thanks in advance.
I apologize for the cross posting, however this is a very important issue for genealogists. The following message was distributed to those attending last week's Federation of Genealogical Societies conference in Boston. The federal budget for next year reduced NARA's funding by $22 million. This budget cut is forcing NARA to consider reducing their hours. The proposed hours are 9 AM to 5 PM Monday through Friday, which eliminates all evening and weekend hours. This change affects genealogical and historical researchers, especially those who cannot visit the Archives during normal business hours. If you are not interested in signing the petition, please consider writing to your Congressman and the Senators. You can contact Congressmen at http://www.house.gov/writerep/ and find contact information for Senators at http://www.senate.gov. *** Dear Conference Attendee: We were honored to have Dr. Allen Weinstein, Archivist of the United States attend the FGS/NEHGS 2006 Conference in Boston and to address us in the Opening Session on Thursday, August 31, 2006. Following his remarks, he was presented with a letter by the Chair of the Records Preservation and Access Committee (RPAC) addressing concerns about the proposed changes in the hours of operation for the Research Rooms at the National Archives. It has come to our attention that very few of our constituencies are making their voices heard on this issue. This lack of response sends a loud signal to the Archives that this is not a serious issue and that closing the Archives on evenings and Saturdays is irrelevant. The RPAC has recommended the following suggestions for the Archives to consider: 1) To accommodate the needs of those who need access on Saturdays, we propose that you close one other day per week. This would be at your discretion. Other archives often close Sunday and Monday. 2) Users who need evening hour access could be accommodated by opening the archives later in the day, again at your discretion. If you agree with the recommendations stated above, we are asking your support by immediately going on-line and adding your "signature" to our petition to substitute the hours of access and still help the archives to meet their need to consolidate their hours of operation. Before 8 September 2006, please go to: http://www.PetitionOnline.com/FGS2006/petition.html (Case sensitive) If you would like to send your own personal letter, send it prior to 8 September 2006 and address it to: Regulations Comments Desk (NPOL) Room 4100, Policy and Planning Staff National Archives and Records Administration 8601 Adelphi Road College Park, MD 20740-6001

I am seeking information on the Micahel Miller Family He married Sara Lobaugh from Mill Hall. Where is that? Her daughter Clare Catherine b 3 Mar 1889 married Orvin LaBode 24 Aug 1906. He was born Mar 1879. I have found them as a couple on the census in 1910 and 1920 and Clare on the 1930 Census. They had at lease 13 children. Now I want to take the Miller line back. Any help appreciated. Marita
