Question: Why would someone who died in Adams County PA have his obit appear in a Virginia newspaper? ------------------------------------------ Relatives? Survivors? Hmmm, interesting. I also belong to a list for Lebanon County in PA which is a bit off the path for Adams but there is probably someone on that list that belongs to a York or Adams list. I can ask.

Pa. would appear in the Lynchburg Press and Public Advitiser, Friday Jan. 28, 1820? Before 1800, Adams would have been York Co. Pa. If anyone has a connection I will be happy to share. ______________________________
