Hi: December 1994 Volume 1 The Progress Presents A View From A collection of stories about local communities Annie Lynn, Correspondent McCartney----The small town , nestled among rolling hills and trees and memories, is a reminder now of glory days long gone, except in the recollections of those who hold it dear. McCartney, located 5 miles from Madera, was once a thriving mining town. Portions of a coal tipple and vestiges of the railroad bed are all that are left to tell of those days. In 1994 " Currently there are 23 homes in McCartney, one church. and one business. Students attend the Moshannon Valley Schools." The article does not mention how it got it's name.. It's a nice article on McCartney. Some names mentioned, George Coleman, Ed Gallagher, Angelo Flasko (Frisko).
