I am trying to find information on Thomas and Mary McHenry NOLAND who lived in Huntindong Co. PA. There are 3 NOLAND families that are in the 1840 Census. Tryone Township T. NOLAND W.K. NOLAND Porter Township T. NOLAND I believe the T. NOLAND who is in the 1840 Census Porter Township to be the same Thomas NOLAND who is in Blair Co. 1860 Census. I tried to check for the Township of Tryone after 1840 but was not able to find it. What happened to the township of Tryone after 1840. Any help is appreciated. Thank you, Rick Cole

My earliest Isett from Huntingdon County is James K. Isett (5/28/1813 - 8/11/1863) who married Elizabeth Garner (8/11/1816 - 3/28/1889). Do you know if there is any connection? The original poster mentioned her Jacob/John was in Penn Township in 1870. Since this was the hub of my Isett family line, it seems very likely there was some sort of connection. Do you have any additional information on the siblings and/or other children of John Stockdale Isett?

Hello list, I am still searching for my ggrandmother, Harriet McGURVEY/McGarvey/etc. and saw something on another list that gives me an idea of another avenue to pursue. An article says that Harriet had a twin sister who was given to a man named JOhn Thompson and they moved west, possibly Iowa. Can anyone tell me if there might be a place where adoption records are kept for the time period of 1854 - 1860? If he legally adopted this twin sister (named Juniata or Susquehanna ?), perhaps there is a record of it somewhere in Huntingdon Co.? Thanks. You have all been a big help to me so far.
