She was never in the county seat, Clearfield, and never visited Reynoldsville or Brookville. Pioneer In Region Mrs. Reasinger was the daughter of the late GEORGE SHAFFER, who with his father GEORGE SHAFFER Sr., mother CATHERINE STROEBER SHAFFER and three brothers, JOHN, MICHAEL, and FREDERICK SHAFFER, came from Dauphin County, Pa. in search of lands inherited by CATHERINE STROeber SHAFFER from her father, JOHN CASPER STROEBER. They followed the trail of the Philadelphia and Erie Turnpike, then being used to transport soldiers and supplies during the War of 1812 to Lake Erie, and when May 12,1812, they reached the hills back of WEST LIBERTY and near the JOHN CLAYTON farm they saw smoke rising from the log cabin of JOAB ODGEN and family at what is now known as the STANLEY station five miles south of DuBois; the only settlement by white people within a radius of 20 miles save one bachelor, JAMES WOODSIDE, who lived nearby, they sought shelter and food and were welcomed. Followed Indian Trail The next day, May 13,1812, they followed the Indian trail which led them to the spring on the present site of the RUMBARGER house on North Main Street , First Ward, of DuBois, where they built a hut of limbs of the pine and hemlock trees, covered with bark, and decided to locate. John Shaffer and his wife returned to Dauphin County, Pa., while the other member of the family proceeded to fell the trees, build a log cabin and prepare the soil for cultivation. Soon Had A Home Within a short period they had built their log cabin and cleared two acres of land and finding that the land upon which they had settled was not that of the STROEBER estate, decided to arrange for its purchase and on April 5, 1838, by deed of ESTER REED and JAMES CHESTNUT for the consideration of $650, 300 acres of the tract known as "Jericho" situate in Brady Township, was conveyed to GEORGE SHAFFER,Jr. father of Mrs. Reasinger. The brothers and sisters of Mrs. Catherine Reasinger, all of whom lived in or near DuBois, and all of whom are deceased, are; JACOB SHAFFER, MICHAEL SHAFFER, GEORGE SHAFFER, BARBARA, wife of ANDREW KNARR, REBECCA, wife of ADAM KORB [ my gg grandparents]. HENRY SHAFFER, ELIZA REASINGER, wife of PETER REASINGER, TOBIAS SHAFFER, JOHN and ELIZABETH SHAFFER. Cabin Became First Tavern In this log cabin, afterward to be known as the RUMBARGER HOUSE, the first public tavern in this section, Catherine Reasinger was born May 3, 1829. The Shaffer endured all of the hardships incident to pioneer life. The mother and the daughters not only prepared the wool, and skins from which the clothing was fashioned by them for the entire family, but worked side by side with their father and brothers felling trees and cultivating the soil. It was the day before machinery, wagons, pens, railroads, steamships, telegraph, mails, and post offices, tin plate, kerosene oil and electricity; indeed it was strictly the day of home manufacture of everything in use. Wooden Pins For Nails Timbers were put together with wooden pins, there being no nails, and in this manner the furniture was made. Vessels for water were carved out of chunks of wood. The only light was the tallow dip and fires were lighted with flint, matches being unknown. Mrs. Reasinger walked to Luthersburg to attend Lutheran church and Sunday school in the old log Union Church, which stood in the rear of the western end of the Union Cemetery, the first church building to be erected in that section, where services were conducted in turn by the Methodists, Baptists, and Presbyterians. Later she united with St.. Paul`s Lutheran Church of DuBois. Congratulate Centenarian Among the visitors to the home of Mrs. Reasinger on the ocassion of her centenary celebration were; C.LUTHER LOWE, HERBERT A. MOORE, AND J. CHRISTOPHER LONG, of DuBois, who carried out a program befitting the day. Mr. Lowe sang the sacred song "I`m the child of a King". Mr. Moore spoke on the life of the pioneer, it`s importance to the community and nation, and felicitated Mrs. Reasinger, on her long and useful life, and Mr. Long read from the German Bible published in 1776 and which has been in Mrs. Reasinger`s family since, the fourteenth chapter of St. John, using the German tongue, which is that alone used by the centenarian during all of her lifetime. Important Event The centenary of this woman is an important milestone in the history of DuBois and its vicinity. The Shaffer's were the study and stalwart settlers who founded the community, and their descendants have remained worthy of the good name bequeathed to them. They were in every sense pioneers such as those of whom Walt Whitman, the poet wrote; We primeval forests felling, We the surface broad surveying, We the virgin soil unheaving, Pioneers! O pioneers. shhhhhh............. quiet. I am hunting forebears, Sue

Coleen and list, You're giving me credit for something I didn't do. The thanks should not be directed towards me. Just a short time ago, I new nothing about these maps. Coleen, you are the one who told me about the 1856 Peelor Map first. When I asked the list about the maps, it was TJ Shumaker who mentioned that the Peelor Map was available through the PA Archives. She was going to order hers at the beginning of May. When I visited their site, I saw the 1817 Map, and Ken McCrea helped out on that one. I just didn't have the patience, and ordered them right away. I couldn't wait. This was a team effort, which is one of the reasons for having this list. So, my thanks to you all. -Gary T. Gibson
Hi, all. The Historical Society in Indiana ordered the same, thanks to a lead from Gary. Our copy of the Peelor map is clear and readable though a magnifying glass is helpful. The Whiteside (John Taylor, surveyor) is readable though a bit out of focus, it seems. Perhaps they were not copied to the original size. I have not tried copying them from the plotter yet but, as Gary said, the CD is wonderful. You can set it, of course, to whatever size you need for viewing and it maintains its clarity. What great research tools. We will need an index! The maps will be available for viewing in our library next week for those who are close enough to visit. I've found my William McFarland near Jacksonville in 1817. . . . thanks again, Gary.

Even though I thought my conversations with them were exacting, I was still a little on edge until I got the maps in my hand. To refresh eveyone, I order the 1856 Peelor Map of Indiana Co., and the 1817 Whiteside Map of Indiana Co. I had the option of either getting a $90 color print-out or a $10 b/w. I ordered the b/w's. At this time, I am very disappointed in how the maps look. The names on the Peelor Map are almost unreadable, and the Whiteside Map is just about the same. I am going to call them tomorrow and express my disappointment. I'm wondering about the resolution they used when they printed them out. So, I would say not to order the print-outs from them, unless mine was a mistake. The print wasn't consistant across the map either. It looks a little like some of my stuff when my printer is running out of ink. Now the CD's of these maps are great. They are clear and sharp. I ve even printed out some sections of the maps my self, and they are 110% better than the print-outs I received from the archives. I have a friend where I work at, and he has a plotter printer. His initial tries at printing out the whole maps look promising. Just thought you'd like to know adios, Gary T. Gibson
I've contacted the PA Archives and we discussed what may have gone wrong on my maps. I found out that they blew-up one of the maps, and that's why the resolution was lost. They are going to redo it. They apologized for the mishap. So far, anyone else who has ordered the maps are very satisfied. -Gary T. Gibson

Here is the rest of it and also another article: Page 2 Nicholson immediately ascertaining that the two men were either badly injured or dead, started on foot for Derry. He secured two rides into the town, where he went to the office of Justice of the Peace Robert M. Doty, surrendering himself. Doty remanded him to the custody of Chief of Police C. W. Rupert, who placed Nicholson in the Derry lock-up. State Police at Greensburg were immediately notified, as was Westmoreland county coroner, Dr. James Harkins of Mount Pleasant. The later (sic) conducted an investigation of the case in Blairsville late this morning. State Patrolman L. Moore of Greensburg and Chief Rupert both stated that Nicholson had told them that he was driving his car at the rate of 40 miles and hour when the double tragedy occurred. The result of the coroner's investigation has not yet been learned. ----------- Indiana Evening Gazette December 20, 1928 NICHOLSON IS HELD UNDER BAIL Young Man Arrested on Manslaughter Charges After Deaths of Two Aged Men at Brenizer Yesterday.

'Squire Doty stated that he would not fix the date for the formal hearing until after the Coroner's inquisition into the Reid and Enrico deaths. As a result of a further investigation by a State Patrolman, it was learned from other miners enroute to work that at the time of the accident, Reid was carrying a lighted flashlight and Enrico was carrying a carbide lamp, also lighted. The accident occurred about 6:15 a.m. The bodies of the two victims were removed to their respective homes in Brenizer late last evening, after they had been viewed by Westmoreland County Coroner, Dr. James Harkins of Mount Pleasant.

Hi List, I am going over documents I have received from Pa. and wonder if anyone can help on a newspaper account or obit for the following? I have the death cert. for George Reid who died Dec 19,1928. It said he died of a skull fracture from being struck (not sure of that word) by an automobile on Blairsville & Derry Road near Brenizer (not sure of that spelling) Derry Township. I'm not sure this is the correct list for this but it's the one I'm on for this family so I thought I'd try. Thanks for any help. Gretchen
Hello, I am researching the Edinger/Eddinger/Ettinger family line. In particular, I am looking for anything about my gg grandfather: Frederick Edinger, his wife Susanna(h) Avery/Amery Edinger and their 6+ children. US Census records for 1860 show Frederick Edinger to be in Jefferson County PA then. I have nothing about Susanna other than approximate birth (1823) and death (1867) years. I would appreciate whatever you could turn up, especially on Susanna(h) Avery/Amery parents birth place and marriage to Frederick Edinger/|Eddinger/Ettinger. Any census image would be great. Thanks in advance. Dennis Edinger

X-Original-Sender: Marilynkwash@aol.com Wed May 12 09:16:41 2004 To: PACAMBRI-L@rootsweb.com North Cambria News, Thursday Dec 2.1915 ANOTHER MURDER AT ERNEST MAN THROWN OVER PORCH RAIL AND NECK IS BROKEN Ernest, Indiana County, was the scene of another murder Monday evening, when Joe Remanuski was thrown over a porch rail to the street 12 feet below and had his neck broken. The men charged with his death are in the Indiana Jail. Enoch Busavick, William Cirvis and the dead man it appears, had been drinking. They were on a porch at the Civris home when a dispute arose, followed by blows. It is alleged Busavick and Cirvis picked Remanuski up and threw him over the railing of the high porch, and that his neck was broken when he lit on his head and shoulders on the street 12 feet below. In an attempt to detract suspicion from the Busavich [sic] and Crivis [sic] went to bed and were found there fully dressed when officers went to the house about midnight. HOLDUP NEAR CREEKSIDE A bold holdup is reported to have taken place between Earnest and Creekside one night last week. Joseph Cribbs, of Chambersville, as the story goes, was returning home from Indiana with two suitcases. At Ernest he got off on business, and later, as the street car had made its last trip, he started to walk home. Near the tipple he was held up by two men, the contents of the two suitcases appropriated and over $100 which he had in his clothes was taken. He was beaten up considerably but was able to proceed to his home. Mr. Cribs can give no description of the highwaymen, as it was too dark, and there is no clue. Note Earnest is spelled two ways, as are the names of the men. I know this is Indiana County, but the Barnesboro Star covers part of that county, and usually printed articles that related to someone in their area. Does anyone else detect a hint of disbelief in the second article? I have read others of this sort, and perhaps this was a good excuse for being beaten up and losing money.
