I am trying to find anyone who has Barrett ancestors from Archibald,Carbondale or Jermyn Pa. My Grandmother Alice Barrett was born 1894 in Jermyn Pa but I can't find who her parents were. I called most of the churches in the area with no luck and can't find her on the census. Thank you for helping. Sandy sddoyle@frontiernet.net

When you say you "can't find" Alice, do you mean you can't tell which of the several Alices might be her?? My hunch is it's the family in Dunmore, because that is the closest to where they were, but there are several in Scranton or other nearby counties.? Also, she could have been indexed as Barnett, so you should check them, too. In Ancestry, they tend to?show the age 1 year older than they really were. These are possibly your Alice.? If you haven't already, research each family until you locate info that ties them to you.? Do you notice a set of family names?? Is there a grandma in the home in later years?? Check the surnames nearby to see if you see the?name she married.? Etc.? Get the land records and wills of these guys.? Maybe that first deed will ID where your guy last lived.? Deeds have lots of info. Susan in San Jose Ca Year: 1900; Census Place: Dunmore Ward 1, Lackawanna, Pennsylvania; Roll: T623 1418; Page: 3B; Enumeration District: 19.??? P A Barrett 42?
