Thank you for your reply to my query. Janice Eby Barbeau
Janice Short Mountain is located on the road between Loyalton and Gratz (Sometime referred to as CROSSROADS) My Uncle Harry SPECHT (SPACHT) died in a Coal Mine on Short Mountain August 1934.... Also my 3rd Great Grandfather and wife (Benjamin Buffington and wife Mary Frissell) are buried in Open Field at foot of Short Mountain on a farm: The small grave yard is located on the Clair Bush Farm on road between Loyal ton and Gratz, Pa. One large Stone marks the cemetery (erected 1923 by Hoffman association) One of the original tombstones survived.

Can anyone tell me if Lykens Valley Lower (David's Reformed) Church, Killingern, upper Paxton Township, Dauphin County still exists? If it is still an operating church can you tell me the mailing address? I'd like to request information on someone who was baptized there in April 1838 and see if they have information on any members of his family. Thanks. Andy
Karl: Thanks. I did find them on your web page. But what I need is the cemetery's actual paper records on them. Like, place of birth, relatives' names, cause of death, church where the funeral was, that sort of thing. Where would I find those records?

Dora, The National Archives and Records Administration maintains the naturalization files. You can visit their Web site athttp://www.archives.gov/genealogy/naturalization/naturalization.htmlfor a discussion of what files are available and how to order copies of records. The NARA also has a regional office in Fort Worth. You can check out what's available at that location at http://www.archives.gov/southwest/index.html.

Capital Area Genealogical Society has many local cemetery tombstone transcriptions. On naturalization records, I just found out that the National Archives has almost no pre-1906 naturalization records.

Hello Dora and fellow listers: Death and Birth Registers were kept at the county level from 1852-1855 and then stopped. This practice was then started again, and ran from about 1893-1906. After 1906 all Death and Births were to be recorded at the state level and the practice was discontinued at the county level. So... I hate to say it... but for the timeperiod you need, you'll have to find church or bible records for Death Records. Other places you might be able to find a Death Date would be in Estate Records or Death Announcements in local newspapers. You might also do well if you're able to find early Funeral Parlor records - but most at that time were just cabinet makers and wouldn't neccessarily have kept death or burial records. Best of Luck!

Hi I saw your post on the Dauphin List. I'd aappreciate you looking for Ludwig Brandt to Mary Byers, around 1770-1780 and also Martin Brandt to Anna Margareta Kroner and that would be as early as 1740 perhaps.

They could have applied for naturalization through any state or local court, as all courts at that time were recognized as legitimate places to renounce prior citizenships and take an oath to the U.S. Since these records fell under the domain of federal district or circuit courts however, the records are probably archived at the federal level.
