Update- I just received another e-mail off the list that provided me with a lot of new information of my John Hart. His parents were William and Margaret living at Surgeons Hall, Jefferson Township, Allegheny County in 1870, right near Pine Run Creek. Thanks to all, and especially to W. Martin Keck for tremendous response to my query!

Hart from Pine Run, Blairsville, Buried in McKeesport Thank you for all of your leads and suggestions. I only wish I knew who his parents were! I suppose I have to make a trip to Indiana University of PA Library to go through the old newspapers to see if I can get an obituary for him. Since I'm out in NJ, that won't happen any time soon. Unless they do Interlibrary loans of films... I'll call them Monday. Thanks again.

Hart from Pine Run, Blairsville, Buried in McKeesport To my knowledge there was never a town Pine Run in the Blairsville area. As for a birth certificate for early 1800's. There is no place that I know of that has any records back then for BC's. Births were usually not mentioned in early newspapers, however, if you find an obit for him it might help you, and there should be a death certificate on record at New Castle for him. Since he died in 1939 I would doubt there would be a Delayed Birth Certificate. They seem to have come about because of Social Security, and that law was not in effect until 1937. I have never seen DBC for anyone born before late 1860's and most of them begin about 1880. You had to have a birth certificate to register or draw Social Security and those who were born before births were registered had to have 3 people's affidavits to get a delayed birth certificate. I would try old newspapers as a next resort or perhaps his fathers will might tell you something, if he died when John Hart was young. ! If under age there should be a guardian appt. somewhere on record. Don't give up until you've turned over the last stone. The McKeesport area I would look in Allegheny Co. -----Original Message----- >From: "W.
