Rootweb is having some troubles with their lists (and message boards). I have been receiving a ton of bounce notices for this list. If you are trying to post and your messages are not getting through or you are receiving sporadic messages from the list, this is why. They are working on it and hopefully the issue will be resolved soon. Sorry for the inconvenience, Cyndie PADELAWA List Admin

I thought there was a line in there about "a queen waitin' there in her rockin' chair, gettin' sloshed on Reading Beer" -- - - or something like that (whichever beer was preferred in your own locale).

Hi, I have never heard of any funeral home records from the Rockdale section. Was there a funeral home in that area in the 1800s? This a good question to ask Paul Dougherty of the Aston Historical Society. Their phone # is: (610) 497-1255. Hours: Monday 11:00 AM - 2:00 PM & 6:00 PM - 9:00 PM Wednesday 11:00 AM - 2:00 PM I have some E. F. White Funeral Home Records from 1887 on up. I do know he buried decedents in the Rockdale, Aston Twp. area. If you would like me to do a lookup in these records, please send me the person's name.

Would funeral home records from the 1800's around the Rockdale area be held at the Delaware County Historical Society or are some still in business? Thanks.

Happy St. Patrick's Day! :D Do you remember this Irish Ditty? SHANTY IN OLD SHANTY TOWN Verse: I'm up in the world, But I'd give the world, To be where I used to be; A heav -en -ly nest, Where I rest the best, Means more than the world to me. Chorus: It's on -ly a shan -ty in old Shan -ty Town, The roof is so slan -ty it touch -es the ground; But my tum -bled down shack, By an old rail -road track, Like a mil -lion -aire's man -sion, is call -ing me back. I'd give up a pal -ace, if I were a king; It's more than a pal -ace, it's my ev -'ry thing. There's a queen wait -ing there with a sil -ver -y crown, In A Shan -ty In Old Shan -ty Town. _______ Helen M.
