Looking for information on a Charles (Charlie) BROWNE. He had a daughter Gloria, who was married to someone from Altoona PA. He was a cousin to my grandfather Jacob L. BATEMAN Sr. This could only mean his mother or his paternal grandmother were BATEMANS. Anyone who is related to this individual please contact me Jacob L. BATEMAN III. Thank you Le

Looking for information on Jacob MILLER He was 40 years of age in 1850. He had one daughter Laura Amelia. The Census calls her Mary. Did she have any siblings. She was born in 1849 in Osceola Mills. Where was her father born, and when? Who were his parents? Where is he buried? Le Bateman Montgomery, Alabama

Hello. Was wondering if any one had the obit for AGNES GELNETT SHAFFER? If not, would someone be willing to do a free lookup? I have the obit for her husband ISAAC SHAFFER and it lists the date of her death. It said it was on the anniversary of the DuBois fire. What was the DuBois fire? Did it destroy a large part of DuBois? anyway, Agnes Gelnett Shafferborn 1857 died June 18, either 1918(stated in Isaac's obit) or 1917 (year on tombstone) michelle will send on Isaac Shaffer's obit upon request

Does anyone have easy access to Clearfield Co. obits? I would love a copy of the obituary for Jennie Ressler, a resident of Clearfield, PA, who died in Feb. 1980. Any assistance will be greatly appreciated. ~D. Thompson, California

There is a beautiful little chapel at Oak Hill and I took a picture a few years ago.

Thank you, Jean for the information. I know where the Friend's Cemetery is, but am not familiar at all with the area. I live in Montana, only get back home to PA every couple years and I'm not originally from that area. The obit I referred to is one of Mayme Owens Dyer, daughter of John and Mary Owens. It says that the services were in the Curwensville Cemetery Chapel, does that help in locating the right one?

Most of the dead over the last 150 years are there. However, out of Curwensville on the Lumber City Road along the dam one goes about two or three miles and then just before the turn off to Grampian, make a sharp cut to the right and up the hill. This goes to the McClure Cemetery where many of the first settlers are buried. There are also more recent burials there too, of Joseph Whitaker's children, grand children and great grand children. If one gets back on the Lumber City Road and turns off to the right to Grampian, one will come into Grampian passed the Friend's Cemetery (Quaker). This is essentially the town cemetery for all there except for the Catholic Cemetery on the far other side of town. Are you looking for anyone in particular?

Could someone please tell me if there is another cemetery in Curwensville besides the Oak Hill cemetery? I have an obit from April 1975 that states "interment will be in the Curwensville Cemetery." Would this be Oak Hill? Thanks, Norine

Hi Folks. For some reason there is a ton of Post cards and other Clearfield County stuff on Ebay. You may want to check it out. Looks like someone has taken apart an old book and is selling it piece by piece. Renee Waring

I just ran across a picture of these two gals - presume it was taken in the early 1920s somewhere in Clearfield. If anyone from this group is connected to either of these ladies, I would be happy to scan the picture and email it to you. Dorcas
