There seems to be Amish buying land outside of Homer City. When visiting my brother, we drove around the Homer City area and he showed me some of their farms. They had outdoor wood furniture for sale on the front lawn. He said they were buying all the land that was for sale.

There are also some Mennonite families living in and around the Hillsdale area, off Route 286. I also believe there was a Mennonite market on Route 286 between Clymer and Indiana. <BR><BR><BR>**************************************<BR> AOL now offers free email to everyone.

Yo! Connie; I had answered you about the ccemetery of 17 tall trees but stones had been removed to a barn in North Mahoning Twp.

There are several that could use cleaning up and some of them are very small. Some containing only one grave. In the larger cemeteries there is a person in charge of that cemetery. In some of the smaller ones, there is no particular person in charge, the township supervisors maintain them. In others that are with churches, members of the congregation keep them up. There is usally a person who digs the graves if they are still burying int he cemetery, but they do not always also keep up the cemetery. I know of only a couple where they do. There are a couple of cemeteries that actually have no tombstones in them. One in North Mahoning Twp and one near Georgeville that never had anything but stones without marking to mark the graves.

I haven't found any newspaper articles yet to verify that it is MY Lucinda Parson. However, she is from East Mahoning, disappears somehow, and then her husband gets a marriage license on May 14th, 1895 (published in the newspaper "The Indiana Messenger" on the 22nd). MY Lucinda Parson lived in East Mahoning Township, wife of John Parson, was born about 1843, and John remarried in 1895. So her dying in 1893 would be highly possible. How could I check to see that the Parron spelling is just a typo of Parson? Below I have just a brief descendants list for reference. My ancestor is Jacob Earl Parson and John Parson is his father.

He was the son of John Getty, 1826-1893, and Mary McCune, Apr 1823-1919. I have James and his parents living in Indiana County all their lives. John and Mary Getty are found in Washington Twp, Indiana Co. in 1860 and in Cherryhill Twp. in 1870-1900. John & Mary had these children: James Clark Getty, b. 1849; Margaret Getty, 1852; John McCune Getty, 1854-1947, m. Jeanetta M. Roberts, 1862-1934; William Alexander Getty, 1857-1942, m.

Her parents were John Wilson Huston, 1817-1898 and Martha Trimble, 1816-1869. Sometime between 1870 & 1880, after the death of Martha, John Huston moved to Christiansville, Mecklenburg Co., VA along with his children. His daughter Mary Elizabeth married James Getty in 1874 and stayed in Indiana County. Mary's sister Evaline Huston, 1849, married William Holt, 1854, a son of Jacob Holt and Aurelia Ann Phillips. Jacob Holt was a famous builder and architect in Virginia and North Carolina, responsible for the building of many fine antebellum homes in that area.

He and his family all attended Olivet Presbyterian Church, which is also the location of the Old Olivet presbyterian cemetary. The church is no longer there because I believe it merged with Long Run Presbyterian in the mid 1800's. I have been to the cemetary and logged and took pictures of all of the Shirley family headstones there. The cemetary is in horrible disrepair. It is very possible that Robert and Susan are buried there, but headstones no longer exist. I have long hoped that someone would do some restoration. I have also been to the homestead location of Robert Shirley. I was taken there 2 years ago by Clair Shirley of Sheloctah, a ggg grandson of Robert, gg Joseph , Grandfather Joseph B. and father,Stewart. Clair has since died.The homestead is no longer there.It was in a beautiful wooded ravine location. I am related through ggg Joseph, gg Joseph B., g Clarence and father John Shirley. I hope this helps. I have a great ! deal of info on the Shirley family. Unfortunately, nothing prior to Robert and Susan.
