Providence, PA, was an original borough which became part of the city of Scranton. This section of town centered at Market St. and N. Main Ave. is still referred to by that name today. It is also generally referred to as North Scranton. -----Original Message----- From: Vcah@cs.com <Vcah@cs.com> To: PALUZERN-L@rootsweb.com <PALUZERN-L@rootsweb.com> Date: Tuesday, April 17, 2001 8:49 PM Subject: [PALUZERN] Providence Hi List, In a 1909 obituary of a Wilkes-Barre resident two of her children were listed as living in Providence (no state given). Was there a place called Providence near Wilkes-Barre?
