Can someone help me, PLEASE? I received some info from the Lynn/Linn Lineage Quarterly which referenced a article from the "Old Salem Presbyterian Church, Greenville, Mercer County Pennsylvania" I am researching David Linn b.1758 d.1830 married to Susan Coyle and his son James Linn b.1784 d. 1855 married to Anna Williamson. The article states that all lived and died in Delaware twp and were members of the Old Salem Church and were buried the the Church's cemetery. I am so confused. I can't find anything on the church or cemetery I have looked in both Greenville and Delaware. Are these dates before Greenville was a town? Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Jeri

The last requests for wills that I send to the Courthouse were returned with a note saying they were understaffed and no longer extracting wills. They had just sent me some a couple months prior to that. They referred me to the Historical Society and I haven't gotten a response from them yet.

I have one of these books on the Snyders and although it is somewhat of scam, I have found some useful information about Snyders to write to in other areas. I got mine (actually my father sent for it) a few years ago and it was $39.95 back then. I am not suggesting to buy it or not to buy it. But it wasn't the rip off that I thought it would be.

Warning I received advertising several years ago from Halberts in Bath, OH. For something like $39.00 each I received 2 beautifully bound books on my family that had basically nothing in them. What a rip off. i was able to take the covers off them and put good data in them after disposing of the contents. Don't be suckered by these offers, if they had anything it would cost far more and you can have covers printed far cheaper.

Ebay http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2179783318&category=13960 Up for auction is a CDV of Alexander James of the 4th Pennsylvania Cavalry. He is quadruple armed with a drawn saber a colt army a bowie knife and a rare gun. Alexander died at Andersonville Confederate Prison in Georgia and his information is listed below.Alexander James Residence Mercer County PA; Enlisted on 10/17/1861 as a Private.On 10/17/1861 he mustered into "I" Co. PA 4th Cavalry He died a POW (date not stated) at Andersonville, GA He was listed as: * POW (date and place not stated) (Buried at Andersonville National Cemetery.)The 4th Pennsylvania Cavalry was engaged at Antietam and Gettysburg. This is an untouched album and most of the photographs have backmarks from Allegheny and neighboring areas. Which is next to Mercer County and the 4th Pennsylvania Cavalry was raised in Pittsburgh. Alexander’s siblings are identified as well. The CDV album is not in good condition but you can tell that the images came from this album as the handwriting in the album is the same as on the CDV’s.The names on the images are as follows: Charles Henry Ricketts Jr. Charles Henry Ricketts Mr. and Mrs. Bonitrayer Titusville PA Ether Buchanan Farrel David Rhode Pittsburgh PA backmarkStauntan Strackrige ?Rev Silas Parker John Lonctot Titusville PA backmarkStauntan Thompson T.

As can be seen in the scans the period identification has been taped on but you can tell that he belongs to the album and with the rest of the family members that this is the correct individual. It is great to get such a great chance to purchase a family who truly cared to keep the memory of their family alive. I will keep this as a true auction with no reserve. Shipping will be $5 and I will cover the insurance. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2179783318&category=13960

Is there a way to search for naturalization papers on someone that migrated to the US in 1798?

Pat:I am very gratful for the information you just mailed to me. I did not have any of that,except I did have only the census. I have had very little information on marriage license appl. fro mercer county. This Daniel Inbody was one of the original four sons of the original Johann Adam Imbody who come to aberica aroud 1739 and lived in Berks County,Pa. I would like verification of his birth, age, and death, but seems like unlikely. Recieved some papers from DR. James K. Seewall Saturday, and I am thankful for that also. Again thanks for the help.
