Hi- I was on this site tonite: www.ancientfaces.com just wanted to share it with the list, and maybe someone can make a connection with their surnames! Pam researching: Pinna, Finazzo, Allessie

Hi Dana, Francis Cemetery is located on the eastside of Gudgeonville Rd about halfway between Francis Rd on the North and Clair Wright Rd on the South, in Franklin Twp,Erie Co,PA. I did not find a headstone listed for James EDWARDS in the cemetery reading of 25 March 1981 by Kathy Hauser and contributed by the late Cheri Nolen for use in the USGenweb Archives as part of the Tombstone Transcription Project. There are unmarked plots in the cemetery that have been used for burials as is the case with my GGF 's plot ,however I am sorry that I am unable to provide an address or phone number for the Francis Cemetery Assn. Perhaps another reader will be able to help. Good luck and happy hunting. Cheers.

Is there a township Gungensville or area in the Albion called Gungensville? Does anyone know the address of Francis Cemetery? It might be near a Gungens Road.

Hi I know the link I sent is for the SURNAMES also It's just another search avenue Dee ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mike" <[email protected]> To: "Dee Davidson" <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, October 16, 2000 4:03 AM Subject: Re: [PAERIE] Another tool/ GenCONNECT > HI! > > The links on the Erie site for Bios, Queries, Wills, and Deeds are all > linked to GenConnect already for your convenience. > > > Hi All > > A great place to post QUERIES OBITS and BIOS is at the GenConnect SURNAME

Even though I have to go to bed early tonight, I couldn't let this very quiet list down, so here is one more cemetery - http://www.zing.com/album/pictures.html?id=4293486745 - this is the Eoahn Zlahtoust Cemetery which is a small Russian Cemetery in Millcreek Township on the east side of Wattsburg Road, south of the Belle Valley Fire department and next to the GTE building (a trailer park is on the west side of Wattsburg road). This cemetery has a locked vehicle gate, but on the side there was a people gate, and I saw no signs prohibiting entry. I believe this cemetery is associated with the Russian Church on Front St just west of German. Bill Klauk Millcreek Township, Erie County, PA

Hello, I am wondering if anyone would happen to have access to the 1860 Census of Erie Co., Pa? If so, could you be so kind in e-mailing me. Thank-You!

Hi All A great place to post QUERIES OBITS and BIOS is at the GenConnect SURNAME boards, there is one for every possible surname and are picked up by the SURNAME HELPER; . All GenConnect boards are indexed in Surname Helper. Surname Helper is also used by the USGenWeb QueryExpress system for registering counties. http://surhelp.rootsweb.com/srchall.html I keep forgetting about these. We send to the maillists and they are lost in archives, and there is also a place for wills and Pensions Deeds, for each surname, a really good tool Check it out, just make sure you are in the right column for what you are doing, just read through; This is a great place to post all the BIOS that come in to the maillists http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/indx/FamAssoc.html Dee

Wondering if anyone has access to the 1880 Fairview twp census in Erie? If so could you be so kind as to look up to see if there is a Henry Hunt as head and wife Jennie A (or Ann Jane/Jane Ann her real name being Ann Jane but went by Jennie A) with at least two children living with them: Mary Clarinda, John, Irvin, Charles W. (he would of been about 10 or abouts)...there are 9 children total that they had. Or any Hunts that would appear in the 1880 census in Fairview twp. Many many thanks! God Bless, Tammie

Hello all; I know soon many of you will be headed south, As I will soon, and wanted to pass this safety advisory on to you, It just came to my email ATTENTION. . . . SAFETY ADVISORY ALERT FOR STATE OF FLORIDA! The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission is advising hikers, hunters, fishers, and golfers to take extra precautions and keep alert for alligators while in Osceola, Polk, Brevard, Highlands, and Orange Counties. They advise people to wear noise-producing devices such as little bells on their clothing to alert, but not startle alligators unexpectedly. They also advise the carrying of pepper spray in case of an encounter with an alligator. It is also a good idea to watch for fresh signs of alligator activity. People should recognize the difference between small young alligator and large adult alligator droppings. Young alligator droppings are smaller and contain fish bones and possibly bird feathers. Adult alligators droppings have little bells in them and smell like pepper spray... Dee: :) Tee Hee Gulp There is a 14 footer in OUR little Fla Lake

A small album of only 8 pictures and 2 are of the entrance sign and one of the pond, but the fairly new Mary Queen of Peace Catholic Cemetery on Lake Pleasant Road in Millcreek Township may be viewed at http://www.zing.com/album/pictures.html?id=4293502743 . This cemetery is on property that used to be a part of the Olds chicken farm. Bill Klauk Millcreek Township, Erie County, PA

Hi List, I have added several pictures of the Wayne Blockhouse, and earlier several pictures of what was once the Jones School now renovated into I believe lawyer offices to the City of Erie pictures on Zing at http://www.zing.com/album/pictures.html?id=4293598237 . Please note that Zing recently changed their view format and most of the older URLs that have been posted for my albums will take you to the 'one picture at a time' view. I now try and list the new format of the URL to take you to the 'index' view, so that you may see at least the first 20 pictures at a glance. As I have stated in the album itself, and in all my other albums, anyone with contributions to add may post directly to the site for review, or you may e-mail me .jpg images for posting.

How can one ancestor cause so much TROUBLE?? 7. I looked into my family tree and found out I was a sap. 8. I'm not stuck, I'm ancestrally challenged. 9. I'm searching for myself; Have you seen me? 10. If only people came with pull down menus and on-line help. 11. Isn't genealogy fun? The answer to one problem leads to two more! 12. It's 2000... Do you know where your-Gr-Gr-Grandparents are? 13. A family reunion is an effective form of birth control. 14. A family tree can wither if nobody tends its roots. 15. A new cousin a day keeps the boredom away. 16. After 30 days, unclaimed ancestors will be adopted. 17. Am I the only person up my tree... sure seems like it. 18. Any family tree produces some lemons, some nuts and a few bad apples. 19. Can a first cousin once removed..RETURN? 20. FLOOR: The place for storing your priceless genealogy records. 21. Gene-Allergy: It's a contagious disease, but I love it. 22. Genealogists are time unravelers. 23. Genealogy is like playing hide and seek: They hide...I seek! 24. Genealogy: Tracing yourself back to better people. 26. A pack rat is hard to live with, but makes a fine ancestor. 27. I want to find ALL of them! So far I only have a few thousand. 28. I Should have asked them BEFORE they died! 29. I think my ancestors had several "Bad heir" days. 30. I'm always late. My ancestors arrived on the JUNEflower. 31. Only a Genealogist regards a step backwards as progress. 32. Share your knowledge; it is a way to achieve immortality. 33. Heredity: Everyone believes in it until their children act like fools! 34. It's an unusual family that hath neither a lady of the evening or thief. 35. Many a family tree needs pruning. 36. Shh! Be very, very quiet.... I'm hunting forebears. 37. Snobs talk as if they had begotten their own ancestors! 38. That's strange: half my ancestors are WOMEN! 39. I'm not sick, I've just got fading genes. 40. Genealogists live in the past lane. 41. Cousins marrying cousins: Very tangled roots! 42. Cousins marrying cousins: A non branching family tree. 43. All right! Everybody out of the gene pool! 44. Always willing to share my ignorance... 45. Documentation...The hard part.. 46. Genealogy: Chasing your own tale! 47. Genealogy...will I ever find time to mow the lawn again? 48. All the really important information is on that missing page 49.

Hi, all: Just visited both sites, and they both show the "USGenWeb" eagle-thing. Is this a lack of communication, or am I missing a point here? Let's not duplicate effort. heaven knows we all have only so much time to spend. I love the new site, but the old one is great, too. Are they communicating?
