Glenn, I did look in my database. Must be 15 Susanna Prices in there, including one born in 1821, but not this one. Sorry. Don Donald L.

If all goes well, I may be able to spend the entire coming weekend--including Friday--at my parents' house in Waynesboro. I'd like to spend some time doing research while I'm there. I see that the Franklin County Historical Society - Kittochtinny is open Friday and Saturday, and I'd like to check out its genealogical library. For those who've been, what can I expect to find there? Do they have birth/death/marriage records, or do I need to visit the courthouse for those? Depending on how much time I actually have, I also want to visit the PA room at the Alexander Hamilton Library, and maybe the Waynesboro Historical Society. And of course, I want to tramp around a cemetery or two. :-) Are there any other places I should consider checking out, maybe not this weekend, but during future visits home? Thanks in advance! Peace, Willie
