    3. Hi, I subscribed to this list temporarily to share something I found in a beautiful little book I bought at ebay which I would hate to part with because it is filled with pages of lovely floral graphics. It is a wedding certification and perhaps someday someone will go searching the Lawrence archives at Rootsweb and come across this information: "This certifies that on the 18th day of October in the year of our Lord 1910 Wm. J. Breckenridge and Bertriss (or Bertress?) May Pool were by me united in Holy Matrimony at New Castle, Pa. According to the Ordinance of God and laws of Pennsylvania s/Rev. J. Elmer Campbell" I searched the Lawrence County archives at rootsweb because there is also a New Castle in Schuylkill Cty but I think I found something pertaining to this same Wm. J. Breckenridge in Lawrence Cty who was evidently a fireman in Niagara Volunteer Hose Co No. 5: "Taken from the bulletin, 8th Annual Convention, Northern Pennsylvania Firemen's Association, New Castle, Pennsylvania, 1938. G.W. Johnson Volunteer Hose Co. No. 4 - Established 1880 John Cromie, Pres. John Morgan, Sec'y Chas. Schlicher, Vice Pres. M.J. Young, Treas. Jacob Emery, Captain Active Members Hugh Cromie, Robert Stockman, Arthur Wehr, Cecil Potter, Milligan Cromie, Elmer Book, G.S. Jenkins, Dallas Thompson, Thos. Jenkins, Wm. Young, Dale Mullen, Chas. Clark, Ralph Carlson Retired Members W.J. Breckenridge, J.W. Clarke, H.C. Stockman, H.J. Quinn, J.L. Wimer, Frew Book, Walter Earl" This latter quoted material came from a search at rootsweb archives for the Lawrence mailing list on <Breckenridge> archived in the year 1999. The earlier quoted marriage material came from my little book. Alice
