Dear List, I will be making available T-Shirts for the Riverview Cemetery Repair Project. The shirts are regular white T's that will have prints on the back of them. These will be the same shirts that we will be wearing during the repair process. The following is what is listed on the shirts starting from the top: Riverview Cemetery Repair Project One Stone At A Time PICTURE August 2, 2003 Photo's can be sent to those who want to see before purchasing Please be patient for the pictures in case the response may be overwhelming. For those who are out of state I can at your request include Huntingdon, PA under the August 2, 2003 date. The cost of the shirts will be $10 a piece plus shipping costs which will be $2. I'm doing this in hopes to be able to offset my costs of fuel in traveling and maintenance. I do not expect alot of interest but what interest is given will be highly appreciated. I'm grateful for the support that has already been given and I probably speak for Huntingdon itself as well as the volunteers. I want everyone to know that this effort goes much deeper than what it seems. The borough itself is giving what it can to see to it that we have what we need as well as local businesses donating as well. The impact is enormous. Things seem to be working out for the good of everything.. I'll be completely honest about how I feel in the token that everyone that is there weekend after weekend devoting themselves to this project is great. And I couldn't have asked for any body better than Ken Boonie, Buck Ruppert as well as my brother and Shawn when he makes it. We work together as a team and get things done. More than I could ever ask for. This makes it all worth it. Should anyone be interested in obtaining shirts please e-mail me with what you are interested in and I can go from there. Shirts will be done on a order by order bases. Please allow a week to receive them. Thanks once again for everyones support to date, May your kind and generous help be returned numerous times, Sincerely, Ken Murtiff

I noticed your mention on your page of the visitors from Frazier Park. If you are referring to us, Carl and Mary Griffin in Pine Mountain Club, Frazier Park, CA, we appreciated the warm welcome at the historical society and everywhere we went in Huntingdon county. We were staying in Round Top and exploring Cassville and Mapleton researching the George Smith family that moved to Trough Creek Valley in 1803. We consider our excursion quite successful for the short time that we had. If there were other visitors in the area from Frazier Park, I would appreciate a chance to connect with them. We arrived back in CA on Friday night, Aug. 22 after a stop in Springfield Ill. to visit the Lincoln and Frank Lloyd Wright sites, and stops at Sunset Crater and the Grand Canyon.

Dear Ken, From what you have written, I don't believe there is a connection between our two lines. I have xerox copies of my 2nd greatgrandfather's Decl. of Int. (1844) and naturalization (1845) papers, and they definitely state that he was born in 1818, Co. Galway, Ireland, and emigrated to America in 1841, and the surname is listed as KELLY. My Patrick KELLY died ca. 1854-56, and his first wife was Mary Ann DOLAN (1825--1890). Thank you for your email, and I wish you all the best with your family searches.

He was also born in Galway, but we think that he was born in 1832 and that he was the son of Bryan Kilkelly. I believe that all of his descendents used the Kelly name, though there is one Patrick Kilkelly that I've heard of, who may be a son or nephew. I offer this information because you may run across "my" Patrick in Huntingdon or Blair counties. Also, many of my other ancestors in this line, hailed from Warriors Mark, but they were the Westons and a lot of Germans. Patrick's wife, Ann Nightwine, is buried in St. Patrick's Cemetery, Newry, Blair county, PA. I have not looked there for Patrick's grave, though it might also be there.

The following was written about 1920 by my grandfather, a nephew to Isabella who was born 1816. "Isabella Bergstresser married James N. Thompson, who died in 1840, leaving a posthumus son, Theodore J. Thompson..." I assume Theodore's middle name was James, after his father. Theodore J. Thompson and family were in the 1880 census, his age given as 39, in McConnellsburg, Fulton Co., PA. He. had children and grandchildren but I do not know the line, nor any background on James N.. Would you please post any other names that may have been on Isabella's Letter of Administration, and any other details from it? Was there anything in the Orphans Court? Wasn't it standard that minor children had a guardian appointed if their father died, even if the mother was alive?

Hi Marge, do you have more about the Leonard side? In my Kemmler research, there is a link between the Cresswell and the Kemmler families. Mathew Leonhard 1844 - 1896 married Rosannah Regina Kemmler, born Mar 17, 1848. Rosannah was very likely adopted by Sigmund Kemmler. But there is a still unknown link between Sigmund's sister, Regina and a Leonard or Leonhard.

NANCY & other Joshua Brown & Charlotte Morris(on) researchers, I got my copy of this land warrant from the Blair County.Genealogical Society, Roller Hojeth(sp?) Memorial Library, 431 Scotch Valley Rd., Hollidaysburg, PA 16648-9697. Phone # 814-696-3492. They hint that they would appreciate donations, so you might send some money to them for making the copy if you go that route. This is the copy that I discuss in the message below. There is also a little different copy you can get from the PA State Archives in Harrisburg. I believe it was Sue Browand that sent me a copy of the one from the State Archives. It only lists Joshua Brown (I didn't see any mention of the other 2 Browns), and it doesn't appear to be as complete as the one I got from Blair county. By the way, Blair county said they have land warrants from a few other counties besides just Blair. Not all other counties, but a few of them and Bedford Co. just happens to be one of them. Anyone that wants a copy of one or both of these warrants, I do have a scanner, so I could send it to you that way. Otherwise, I can make a copy and send it to anyone who wishes. The more of us that work on this the better. We have beat our heads against the brick wall over and over with this family. We have little tidbits, but so far nothing fits together yet, as to who the parents of Joshua Brown and/or Charlotte Morris(on)? were. I think Sue Browand has worked on this line also for a long time. We would be happy to have some others help. You can probably find quite a few of our old messages in the archives for this list. I have listed several times, why the Joshua Brown in Little Brittain/Lancaster County can not be the father of our Joshua Brown. But, who is???? They do have the same naming patterns. Possibly our Joshua Brown is the son of one of the other lines from Little Brittain. I charted out quite a bit of the family from Lancaster/Chester counties. And there are a couple of males I never could find children for that could possibly be parent to our Joshua. I have this all (the Lancaster/Chester Quakers) in a GEDCOM also if anyone wants a copy of that. I went thru many of the Quaker records and every date and name I have in that GEDCOM states where I found the proof. I would be happy to help anyone who wants to seriously help research this line. Sue Browand are you still there? Have you found anything since we talked last?

We went into the 'DUNGEON" and got out all the old warrants and xeroxed them. But most of them dated from the 1790s, after Huntingdon had been taken off as separate county. I would suggest that you write to the State Archives. They have microfilms of all of the warrants. Or you could have someone check the PA Archives series 3, vol ? which gives you the warrants for each county. If you don't find anyone to do that, I will be glad to check when I'm in our Pioneer library - but it dpends when I have time, as sometimes I don't even have time to eat. It should be less crowded now that school has begun. Give me the name and location and I assume it's Huntingdon Co but will check Bedford also.

However, I do think we are going to find that is indeed where he was from, but I don't see it on the bible page, where we could use that for proof. Does anyone know differently for sure? This certainly is one of the hardest families I have worked, as far as digging up tidbits and putting them together like a puzzle. I was also told the William Brown b.ca 1765 in Md, that was in Huntingdon Co, PA at the same time as our Joshua Brown, was also born in Cumberland, MD. And William named one of his sons Joshua. In fact, his children have many of the same names that our Joshua named his children. So, I am adding him to the list of possible siblings to Joshua to look for, plus the fact that William Brown married Ruth Lane, the niece of my Ruth Lane that married Vincent Steven. 3 of Vincents grandchildren married Joshua Brown's grandchildren. Seems too coincidental.

I just saw on the interenet this week that the submitter had a Mary Rankin for the spouse of the John Latta in Huntingdon, PA. We find John in the 1790 and other censuses in Hungtindon, PA. Can anybody else pull her name up in their data base? We have children for John and his unknown wife including my gg's John (this JOhn b ca 1784) and Annie (Hockenberry) Latta, but have never seen or heard MARY RANKIN before.

Steve, would you mind looking up Jules Renard? I have seen a map with his name on it...in Bedford County. Unfortunately, my time in PA ran out before I could track much more down. I did check both historical societies and the courthouse. I have a copy of his declaration of intent, never found his naturalization papers....found his daughter's grave (behind my grandparents and uncle) in Broad Top City cemetery. Jules made several trips back and forth to Belgium. The trip my ancestors came was August, 1902. His daughter died that December. I have all of them on the Ellis Island manifest. Any help you may be able to give....or direction to pursue my research will be deeply appreciated. Sorry, cut and paste lesson still to come. S.

It was SUPPOSED to be 1781! I had fat fingers or a senior moment. Sorry.

Hello hansen8, Saturday, August 16, 2003, 8:59:16 AM, you wrote: hbc> It looks like Entrikin is Scotch/Scots Irish. Great fun - what a nice heritage. The best way hbc> to find out is to go to www.familysearch.org and put in only the surname - looking through the hbc> results will give you a pretty good indication. Linda "The Scotch-Irish in Colonial Pennsylvania" (if I'm remembering the title correctly) is a fascinating book tracing the migration of the Scotch-Irish. It begins telling how they came from Scotland moving to the Ulster area of Ireland, not really mingling with the native Irish, and then moved on to colonial America. Most of the early migrants across southern Pennsylvania were the Scotch-Irish so I would imagine a lot of us have those roots. Then later the Germans followed. -- Patti Descended from the Lee family in Huntingdon County mailto:historymom@att.net
