Do you have anything that connects to this Backwith? Mary named a son John "Brackwith" but that name doesn't seem to exist.

Just a little bit of information about Adam Livingstone Pratt before I hang it up for the night. Betsey Palmer was Adam's 3rd wife, the first two being Martha Stanton, and the second was Miranda Spencer. He had one son by his first wife and two sons by his second wife, both of whom died in the Civil War. Adam and Betsey had six children, of which Joseph was the youngest. Adam was among the first settlers of Sheffield Twp, arriving in 1832. He was involved in lumbering and rafting. Phil Alling

Nancy C. (California) Farnsworth was born 9 Aug 1876 in Saybrook, Pennsylvania and died 5 Apr 1923 in Sheffield Township, Warren Co., PA. She was married to Joseph Hoyt Pratt, born 27 Jun 1865 in Sheffield Township, Warren Co., Pa and died 28 Jan 1931 in Sheffield Township, Warren Co., Pa. Also need information on Joseph Hoyt Pratt's son, Laverne James Pratt (known as LJ), born 20 Jan 1901 in Sheffield Township, Warren Co., PA who married Blanche Eleanor Fiske who was born About 1901 in Pittsfield, PA and died in Erie Co., PA. Blanche's parents were Gust Fiske born 1864 in Sweden and Mary C. Anderson born 1872 in Pittsfield, PA. That is all the information I have. Also Joseph's parents, Adam Livingston Pratt born 23 Jun 1814 in Hector, Seneca Co., NY and died 7 Jan 1891, Sheffield Township, Warren Co., PA. His wife was Betsey C. Palmer, born 13 Jan 1826 in New York and died 28 Jan 1900, Sheffield township, Warren Co., PA. The Eugene Nelson was born in Pennsylvania but I am not sure what year. He died in 1978 in Los Angeles, California. He was married to Audrey Elaine Pratt who was born in 1924 or 1925 in Pennsylvania. I believe Audrey Pratt Nelson is still alive and living in southern California. Their daughter Karen Leah Nelson Micheloni was born about 1947 and resides in Oceanside, California. Karen and Gary Micheloni are my daughter-in-law's parents. I have also found some of these families in McKean County, Pennsylvania. Thanks J Lay

I don't believe there is a cemetery right IN Colegrove, but there are others in that area. A list of McKean County cemeteries (and contact information) is on the McKean County page of the usgenweb project: http://www.rootsweb.com/~pamckean/mckeangenealogy.html In the left frame (menu bar) scroll down and click on BURIAL/McKean.

I dont know if this will help and maybe no connection but there is/was a DILL family living in Wilcox, PA at one time. Just a few miles from Johnsonburg. (ELK County) A lot of Swedish people moved there when they came over from Sweden, so there are/were a lot of Carlson's and Johnson's there.
