Now that Candance has replied, I will retract my statement of finding information. I know that a diary of Capt. John Snay was donated to the cause. He was from Jersey shore and he, with a group of others went to Camp Curtin in Harrisburg. He was delayed for a while, because of a concussion when he fell from the second floor hitting his head, but later fought in the Civil War. Very interesting reading. Eldred
Jersey shore did have a genealogical society, But I am not sure when it is open. I will try to find out and post it. Eldred
Jersey Shore does have a Historical Society. It is in the Samuel Moss House on South Main St. in Jersey Shore. The phone number is (570) 398-1973.
