Edwina - Was interested in your comments about the church in Pittston. You did not mention which one you contacted. I dealt with St. Casimier's several years ago and it took about 6 months for me to finally get the information I needed but it was good. Three of the catholic churches are under one priest at least they were then, so genealogy is not one of their high priority. Hang in there and have a good day. Ruth Badman Black b.
