The only older sibling was Elizabeth. I have never seen more information about Elizabeth. I have no idea if the following is correct but it is what I have found. If some kind soul (SKS) has any further information, additions, corrections, deletions or ideas how, where and what to search I would be most happy if they would contact me on or off list.

    2. Barb and Claire Tarentum is not the county seat so no official birth or death certificates would be there. It' s in Allegheny County so their records would be at the county courthouse in Pittsburgh if they are filed anywhere. However the Tarentum Library is a great resource for info on people living in Tarentum, Natrona or Brackenridge, PA. My favorite sources there are cemetery indexes for Prospect Cemetery, microfilm of the Valley Daily news, and Funeral Home Records for several of the funeral homes there. I've gained a weath of info on relatives after 1930 (children's married names, family still alive at the time of the persons death, birth dates, place of birth, parents) from the funeral home records. Records are in notebooks alphabetically and each person has a page of info. You could call them and have them check the books for your relative if to see if they had the funeral there. Call them and they can tell you what they charge for lookups and copies. 724-226-0770. They have a person in the genealogical section during the days they are open.

    3. Indiana Messenger, June 7, 1899 DEATHS Mrs. R. K. IRWIN, journeying from her western home to visit friends in Montgomery tp., reached this place on Monday, her baby, a few months old, having become ill. She went to the home of John H. HILL, Esq., of whose family she was a former member. The child died during the night. The body was taken to Hillsdale, Montgomery tp., yesterday. The wife of Joseph BRUFF died at her home at Rochester, Beaver county, on Friday, June 2. Deceased was a daughter of the late Col. James R. PORTER, of this place, and is the last of that family. She is survived by her husband and eight children. A son of the deceased is at Manila, a member of the Tenth Pennsylvania. Returned members of that organization, in full uniform, acted as pall-bearers at her funeral. Stewart A. HILL, a former Indiana county school teacher, died at Johnstown last Monday, aged 46 years. He was born in Armstrong county. Scott B. DAVIS died at the home of his brother, W. T. DAVIS, Third ward, on Saturday, June 3, 1899, of consumption, aged 48 years. The deceased was a son of the late Johnston DAVIS, of this place. For some years past he made his home in Cincinnati, where he worked in various printing offices. His health had been failing for a long time. Among other attendants at the funeral was his brother, Austin, who has made his home in Cincinnati for the past 25 years. The interment took place in Oakland on Monday afternoon. Mrs. Sarah Ann, the wife of Bartley GROVE, of Rayne township, died on May 19, 1899, aged 56 years and 16 days. She leaves a husband and seven children to mourn her loss. Four of the children are married, three at home and two are dead; 11 grandchildren also survive. Daniel BURKETT, of Cherryhill township, died suddenly at the home of his son-in-law, Mr. KEPHART, one day last week. He had gone over to Mr. KEPHART's on a visit and when about to sit down on a chair fell dead. He was aged about 60 years and is survived by his wife and five children, three boys and two girls. Daniel BELLFORD, aged 68, of Reynoldsville, an employee of the Jefferson and Clearfield Coal and Iron Company, was run over and horribly mutilated by a train of empty coal cars at the Big Soldier mines on Friday and died soon after. Mr. BELLFORD was for many years a resident of Indiana and carried the mail over a number of star routes in this county. He was a reputable and honorable citizen, and leaves a wife and family to mourn his sudden death. Thaddeus WORK was born in Indiana county, Pa., January 11, 1875, and died at Idaho Springs, Colorado, April 18, 1899, of pericarditis, following an attack of the measles. He had left his childhood home near one and one-half years since, making an extended visit to his sister, Mrs. WALKER, at Idaho Springs and while there was engaged in gold mining. He expected to return soon to his home when he suddenly received the message to come to his eternal home. Manhood had scarcely dawned upon him, all the hopeful anticipations of a useful, happy life were before him, yet the recording angel closed his life's book ere many pages were written. We prize not a book because of size but of its value, and this book of life, although we think of many unwritten pages, was complete. The sterling worth of Thaddeus WORK's character was recognized by his many friends everywhere. His loyalty to right and truth, his manliness, his respect to the aged, his kind heart and generous spirit were always manifested in his life. The true test of nobleness comes in our home life, and there his life was most beautiful. Never too tired, always so thoughtful and so cheerfully willing that the cares and duties seemed but a pleasure. The sadness of his being laid to rest in a far away grave was softened by the many kindnesses shown by his friends there. The hushed city, the closed mines, the crowded church, the flower-ladened casket in which he lay looking as if asleep, gave evidence of the esteem in which he was held. The church and its various organizations, the men with whom he worked, his young companions--all speak of the example he gave them of a christian life, never forgetting "whose he was and whom he served". He will be missed. Parents who early learned to depend on him will always watch and wait for his coming home. Home will never be the same again to his brothers and sisters. They will miss his voice in singing. The melody will be saddened, for his voice will never vibrate again in the home songs. Life will have a minor chord. They will miss him at morning, noon and night. We cannot understand now why feet so willing were stilled, hands so useful aare folded, and his young, useful life gone, but "then we shall know". It was best. His work was finished and it is well with him. MARRIED ROSBOROUGH--DUNMIRE--May 29, 1899, at the bride's home at Tunnelton, Pa., by Rev. Harry H. Household, J. Albert ROSBOROUGH, of Pittsburg, to Miss Jennie DUNMIRE. On last Thursday evening Mr. James S. CALHOUN was married to Miss Minnie WALTEMIRE, the Rev. J. W. Wilson being the officiating clergyman. The ceremony took place at 8:30 p.m., at the residence of Mr. CALHOUN, in the Fourth ward. An hour or two later several male and lady friends of the youthful couple called upon the bride and groom and announced their presence in a very loud and startling manner. The married couple promptly met the callers at the door and after an exchange of greetings the visitors took their departure, the occasional jingling of a bell or toot of a horn marking their progress homewards. Cards are out announcing the marriage on Wednesday, June 7, 1899, of Miss Elverda May RITCHEY, of West Mahoning, and Mr. Hileman GOOD, of Dayton. The bride is a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. D. A. RITCHEY and a most estimable young lady, while the groom is one of the best young men of that town. We extend congratulations. On Thursday last, at noon, Mr. J. McMurray THOMPSON, son of Hon. H. J. THOMPSON, of Marion, and Miss Jean N. WORK, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. A. S. WORK, of East Mahoning, were married by Rev. E. P. Foresman.

MYERS, of this place, was united in marriage May 31, 1899, with Miss Anna BASTOW, at the home of the bride in Pittsburg.

They make their home in Texas, where the former lady's husband died some few months since. Henry and Alexander COULTER, sons of "Dick" COULTER, of Greensburg, are Indiana visitors this week.

YOUNG and J. S. FERGUSON. The will of the late Henry HOUCK, of Green township, was admitted to probate June 5. The house on the farm and its contents, together with all the other personal property claimed by decedent and his wife, is devised to the latter so long as she remains his widow, or until her death. The farm is given to decedent's son Joseph at the price of $2400; of this sum $300 is to be paid to the widow one year after the deceased of the decedent. Provision is further made for her maintenance off the farm should the devises made prove inadequate. Joseph is to pay off the other heirs in yearly installments, according to the date of their birth, and is to provide respectable tombstones for deceased and his wife at her death. David R. HOUCK is the executor. The will is dated March 1, 1890, and is witnessed by John FARNESWORTH and Mary A. FARNESWORTH.

    1. [INDIANA] Dunwiddie's store - Was Indiana Messenger, April 8, 1903
    2. abbybowman
    3. In the Indiana Messenger dated October 6, 1897: ...if you want nice new Fall Goods in exchange for your gold, greenbacks or silver, go to Robert Dunwiddie's Pike's Peak store in Cherryhill township. He has just got in his fall stock of goods and they are "out of sight" in quality and quantity, but within good hailing distance of price.

    3. The last time I tried to get records I had to write a letter to TSH explaining what and why I wanted. They will NOT release medical information due to federal regulations.

    1. [INDIANA] George W. Ackerman murder...please help
    2. LINEA NICHOLSON
    3. Hello, I'm new to the list and hope that I can find some help and advice regarding my great-great-great grandfather George W. Ackerman b. abt 1831 possibly Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts or PA. I have been searching for information about him for years to no avail...The only information I have so far was gathered from a distant cousin, children's death certificates and the 1860 census. 1860 Census Pine Twp. Indiana County, PA p.344 George Ackerman 29 Laborer Connecticut Diadema " 27 PA James B. " 1 PA Rosanna Edwards 16 PA (Diadema's sister) Jane Mardis 13 PA George W. Ackerman married Diadema Edwards George (had been married to Cyrus George) abt. 1858. Diadema had lived in Blacklick or Jackson Twp. in Cambria County prior to the marriage. Reportedly, my g.g.g. grandfather was murdered "while walking through the woods after having sold some horses." As close as I can figure, he died from between July 1869 and June 1870 because he does not appear on the 1870 census...Diadema is listed alone with several of her children, including three month old Burgess Ackerman...others were perhaps sent to live with relatives in parts unknown. 1870 Census Pine Twp. Indiana County, PA p. 316 Akerman Diodema 38 Penna " Sarah E. 9 Penna " Catherine 8 Penna " A. Thomas 2 Penna " Burgess 3/12 Penna Other known child Annie Clotilda Ackerman was 5 at the time and already living with relatives...I suspect that there may be more children as well...I would like to find out what happened to them. Since George was supposedly murdered at age 39 with 6 known children...surely there should be some record of his death in the local newspapers or court records. Does anyone know of or have access to the newspapers or court records of that time period...I'm not sure what papers covered the area...if anyone could do a lookup for a newspaper article, orphan's court records or estate records, or any advice or information about this family it will be greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance for your help, Linea Nicholson Port Vue, PA figment_@verizon.net

    1. [INDIANA] Lookup
    2. Carrie Smith
    3. I was wondering if someone could do a lookup for me on ancestry.com, etc.. I am looking for a census record for Roy Butts and Roxie (Naugle) Butts. I believe they lived in Cramer. Roy was born about 1895 and died August 8, 1919. So I figured the 1900 or 1910 census for Indiana County. I do not have any other information except for knowing that I believe he is buried in Armagh Cemetery with a possible child by the name of Imogene? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Carrie Smith Researching: GRIFFITH, BUTTS, GEORGE, STILES, CLELAND, MAXWELL, HELSLEY, HANN, etc..
