FYI. Thank you. Elaine Greca, for sharing the information. Mary Ann Lubinsky Luzerne County PAGenWeb http://www.rootsweb.com/~paluzern/ This posting is going to all members of NEPA Ancestors to advise all its group members that 1,600 new names have been added to the Mining Accident Database and Coal Mining Information Files. There are now over 15,000 entries, over 12,000 of which have been transcribed from Mining Books. These mining books provide a very short description of the accident. If an entry was taken from a mining book the entry "Accident Description Available" will appear at the end of the entry. The page of the mining book your ancestor's entry appears can be scanned and emailed to you. If you would like a scanned copy of the page your ancestor's entry appears on in a mining book, please post to the group the entry/entries as it appeared in the database and I will scan and email you the page your ancestor's entry appears. The entry will also list the nationality, occupation, age, married or single, number of widows and the number of orphans. I have placed in the database located from our group home page, which are searchable, the first 8,000 names. The balance of the remaining 7,000 names have been placed in PDF files located under a file titled "Coal Mining Information". This material can be accessed from our home page at: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/NePa-Ancestors/ On the left hand side of our home page are the icons "Database" and "Files" from which this data can be accessed. I have separated out the data that could not he held in the Databases into PDF documents in the hopes that although this document format is not as easily searchable as the Yahoo Databases are, it would be more user friendly to be able to scroll down a document to search the names you are researching. When checking the entries please keep in mind that the transcription was done as the entries were printed in the mining books and that obvious misspellings are abundant. The databases have been revamped and are ready for member searching. I want to thank Diana Gately, JoAnne Vaughn and GRSNP for their kindness to take the time and/or energy to provide these mining books to me for transcription. It is through their generosity that this information has been made available for transcription and is now available to group members. Good Luck and I hope many of you find information regarding your ancestors. Elaine Long Island, New York

I've "rescued" an old photograph of Ezra A. TUTTLE which was taken at the W. H. Bennet Studio in Wilkes Barre, Pennsylvania. The photograph appears to have been taken in the 1860's or 1870's with Ezra noted as 16 years old at the time. I was able to locate Ezra in the 1870 census records as a Farm Laborer on two separate farms, one with the Harriet E. MILLER Family in Hanover, PA, and the other with the Alexander LINDRUM Family in Sugar Notch Boro, PA. Both records note that Ezra was 18/19 years old at the time and was born in New York State. I am hoping to locate someone from Ezra's family so that this wonderful old photograph can be returned to the care of his family. If you are a member of this TUTTLE Family, or know someone who might be, please contact me. Thanks, Shelley
