I have found the best value on Ancestry. com was to be able to read the old newspapers from Indiana Co. I think you can just join this part for a reasonable amount of money. I have just spent a year pulling up over 1000 pages with just my surname. When I first joined there were only 8 hits and could not believe my luck when the Indiana County papers were added. They have even updated into the 60's and 70s now though some years are not up. Saw my wedding photo again from way back when. The best thing I found out was info that was never told to my generation. Granddad put in jail for selling moonshine back about 1924. Then a week later they caught the brains behind the operation and Grandma was put away for having a still and 6 barrels. That explained so much why they lost the farm. The deed was in the paper to pay fines and court costs. There it was, the owner of the land was grandma. Saw the deed of transfer a few years earlier to her from my grandfathers uncle. She always said it was her farm and I never believed her. It was part of the original land in Cherry Tree area. The pieces of other stories fell in place. ! Then there are the 100s of obits and weddings and reunions. Even the murder of a wealthy Great Aunt that happened in 1929. If you are from a family that lived there for generations and have a not a too common name, it is a great tool for researching for more than just dates of births and deaths. Elaine

Bruce, I subscribe to both Ancestry.com and Genealogy.com and have for about two years. Initially, I liked Genealogy.com better and used it all the time. At this time, I find more information on Ancestry.com. The census data seems to be more complete and there are loads of other files. I subscribe to the newspapers on line and have recently found quite a bit of information on Clearfield and Indiana Counties. Both have message boards, immigration data, census data, SSDI records - lots of duplication. However, sometimes I can find information in the census records on one that I can't find on the other. I have no idea why that is. There seem to be more census records on Ancestry.com that are searchable rather than just browseable. Ancestry.com has a fairly new feature that lets you click on a state and then enter a surname and it will pull up all of the records that it has in that state with that surname. Of course, you can add a given name if you are looking for a specific person. I also use Rootsweb regularly. Ann > > I see much about various memberships to online > services for genealogical help.

SHIELDS and Mary Ann MILLER were married January 10, 1850. Nine children were born to them, five sons and four daughters. A son died in infancy and a daughter at the age of eighteen. Of the seven remaining children, only one, the youngest son, is at home. The three daughters and the eldest son are married. The father is seventy-two years old on the 10th of this month, and the mother will be sixty-four on the 23rd of next May. On last Tuesday, October 4, 1892, the family, the seven children, the daughters' husbands and the eldest son's wife and all the grandchildren, were at home. The reunion was planned to be a surprise to the parents and was in that respect a complete success. The aged couple were evidently rejoiced by the event and by the sight of their children and their many grandchildren. The family that greeted them upon this occasion numbered twenty-four. A beautiful and comfortable chair was presented to each parent. The presentation of these was the most enjoyable, as well as the most pathetic, event of the day. The children prepared the dinner, which was a royal one. After a very pleasant day, a day never to be forgotten, the children took leave of their aged parents with pleasant words and good wishes. The blessing of God was invoked, and the children separated scarcely hoping to meet again under similar circumstances. The will of the late Allison GIBSON, of Cherryhill township, was filed for probate October 16. To his wife, Martha GIBSON, is devised absolute his house and lot in Greenville, and two separate tracts of land in said township, containing respectively six and four acres. To his son Calvin is devised the tract of land in Cherryhill township, adjoining Thomas STEPHENS, John GLASSFORD, Jacob DARR and others, containing 150 acres, more or less, on condition that Calvin pays to testator's son Leonard $500, payments to be made at the rate of $100 annually; and also provided that said Calvin delivers to his mother annually during her life ten bushels of the following kinds of grain, viz: Wheat, rye, corn, buckwheat and oats. To his son, Jam es Milton GIBSON, is devised absolutely "100 acres of my farm situate in said township, adjoining lands of Hiram GIBSON, Irvin GIBSON, and Simon HENRY, provided that said Calvin" shall pay to testator's daughters Rosanna GOODLIN, Caroline and Mary Jane GIBSON $100 each, to be paid in installments of $25. The remaining part of this last tract, 80 acres, is to be sold at public sale, the timber and underlying coal separately if found to be advantageous, the proceeds of the sale to be applied as follows: $800 each to his three daughters Rosanna, Caroline and Mary Jane, and the balance, if any, to be divided among his children share and share alike. The residue of the estate, personal or mixed, is also to be distributed among the children equally. The testator's wife and son Leonard are named as executors. The will was made December 12, 1891, and is witnessed by John G. CAMERON and Coulter WIGGINS, Esq. Abby Bowman Data Entry Manager Pa-Roots Data Boards http://www.pa-roots.com/data.html

I cannot give you a lot of information. My 2nd great grandfather was Moses Crawford. He died in Indiana County, PA in 1831. Moses had two wives. The first was Nancy Scroggs. She died prior to Moses coming to Indiana County. He married Mary Jamieson and they came to Indiana County. Moses and Nancy had several children - among them was Jennet. Moses and Mary had several children. Moses died intestate and the settling of the estate went on for a long time - years. I don't know a lot about the law. I have papers pertaining to an inquisition in which Henry Kinter served as a witness. I find Jennet listed as daughter of Moses and wife of Henry Hartman. I can't tell you when Jennet was born. Census records of Wheatfield Township, Westmorland County, PA show Moses and Nancy in 1800 with 2 girls 10 years or younger. Two girls in 1810 are age 10-16 and there is another girl 10 or under. By 1817 Nancy was deceased. I don't know exactly when she died. I do have a letter Moses wrote to Mary Jamieson in 1817. This was when he went to visit his mother in KY. They were not married at that time. The letter is written to Miss Mary Jamieson. By 1820 they have one little girl in the household age 10-16. The other two are gone. At that time we pretty much have to guess marriage is what took the two older girls out of the household. Jennet could be any one of the girls. If your Henry Hartman is Jennet's Henry Hartman and he did not come till 1841 it would seem unlikely he was her 1st husband even if she was the girl age 10-16 in 1820 but it is possible she married late. It is 1831 when Moses died and the inquest took place in 1854. Here is where Henry Kinter served as a witness and where it is stated Jennet is child of Moses Crawford and wife of Henry Hartman. At that time your Henry would have been here 14 years and entirely possible he is Jennet's husband. I know I have provided you with much you probably don't need. If it is possible for you to go to Indiana County and visit the historical association's library I would really recommend it. I was able to be there only a short while but the visit really did help me.

Hello Indiana County I am wondering if anyone has any information about the Wacker/Walker family and or the Cook family of Indiana County that they could share with me?. I have a Christiana Walker/Wacker, born in Germany, about 1840, living in Indiana County about 1860's. I have info regarding her parents and siblings I would like to confirm and possibly find out more about this family. Christiana married Jacob Hartmann and died in Pittsburgh, Alleghany County, PA in 1884. I have parents as John C. Walker and Catherine Snyder, b. 1815 both born in Wurtemberg, Germany. I have these children for John & Catherine Walker/Wacker; Christiana; George M.; Harry E.; Charles P.; Frank; Fred R.; Annie C. (which may be the same person as Christiana); and David W. Catherine Snyder is supposed to be the daughter of Balser Schneider/Snyder John C. Walker's father is John Christopher Walker, mother is unknown. This John Christopher had another son besides John C, and his name was John P. John P married Caroline Schurr Cook. Caroline Schurr's first husband was Christoper Cook whom she married in Germany and they came to America and settled in Pgh. They had three children, John C. b. 1849, Catherine C., b. ? & Caroline M. b. 1857. Death date I have for Christopher Cook is 1888, which has BIG problems. Caroline Schurr Cook married John P. Walker Aug. 31, 1860 in Rayne Twp. Indiana County, PA. and they have three children, Pauline, b. 1861, Anna Elizabeth, b. 1862, and Mary Mgt. born 1864. Death date for John P. Walker is Feb. 1888 which I think is correct. 1900 Rayne Twp., Indiana County, PA census, ED 61, 18 June 1900, sheet 8 Walker, Caroline, head, June 1825, 74,widow, married 48 years, 6 children born, 5 living, born in GERMANY, mother and father born in Germany, farmer, owns; Pauline, dau. June 1861, 38 single born in PA; Schurr, John, nephew, Oct. 1876, 23 years, born in PA, mother & father born in Germany. family living between Claus & Flora Wohler, and Martha (widow of Crawford R.Long) & dau. Anne Long, and the next family is John C. Cook Is it possible that Caroline divorced Christopher Cook (who could have been the next door neighbor, John C. (the C. being for Christopher?) and married John P. Walker?? Both men seem to have died in 1888! Daughter Anna Elizabeth Walker (dau. of John P. Walker & Caroline Schurr Cook Walker) married the son (Evan Long) of the neighbor, Martha & Crawford Long. Can anyone help or straighten out these Walker/Wacker, Cooks??? Most of the Walker information came from Bible records at the Indiana County Genealogy Society. I would like to contact anyone who is researching any of these lines. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you, Jean Klein
