I would hope that there really aren't any "boundaries" in our genealogy. My ancestors came from the Mon Valley, Pittsburgh (Library, Bethel Park, which incorporated the "town" of Mollenauer in the 1950's), Washington City, Canonsburg, Beallsville. I'm from Charleroi, but I was baptised in Derry. I've never been to Derry as an adult, but I'd like to someday. The Allegheny rootsweb, in my opinion, isn't worth subscribing to, so I don't. I get PAWASHIN and PAMONVAL. I also get a rootsweb site in Mississippi. Now, that's out of the way, but the Mississippi River runs into the Ohio, which runs into the Monongahela, so are they related? My Mississippi ancestors ended up in Charleroi? Loaded question, huh? Robert D. Mollenauer, Jr. Ridgecrest, CA -- Gateway to Death Valley Ridgecrest Eagles Aerie 3243 China Lake Moose Lodge 258

On a previous message, I stated that rootsweb mailing lists do not accept "click-on" links within e-mails sent to the list. Theres been a little confusion. URLs of sites that have your family tree info, Mon Valley history, or general genealogy or history pages, are more than welcome... they are encoraged!!! However, when adding these adresses, please type them in as regular text, but do not add them as "hyperlinks", which are blue, and when you click on the name, would take you directly to that site in your web browser... Sorry about any confusion my last post may have caused!

p352 Joseph Hutchinson was born near Round Hill church, Elizabeth township, Allegheny county, Penna, March 21, 1828. His father, John Hutchinson, was born in New Jersey and came to Pennsylvania with his father Joseph Hutchinson. He afterwards on his return East, died from teh effects of the measles. His wife, Ann Bennett, who lived to be 105 years of age, was a daughter of a captain of the War of the Revolution. The Bennetts were a most remarkable pople for their longevity and physical endurance, and were noted for their abstemious and temperate habits. John Bennett, a brother of Mrs Ann Hutchinson, was a soldier under General Markle in the War of 1812-15. The Hutchinsons are of English stock. John Hutchinson was a leading farmer and speculator of Allegheny and later of Westmoreland county, Penna. Joseph Hutchinson, whose name heads this sketch, was married March 21, 1849, to Ann E McDonal, a daughter of John McDonal of Sewickley township, Westmoreland county, Penna (the great grandfather of the latter was one of the heroes of the Revolution), and has had seven childrne of whom two are dead: John M Hutchinson, a well-driller by occupation was born in 1850; Margaret Jane Hutchinson, now the wife of Amos Shrum, formerly of Westmoreland county; Travilo W Hutchinson (deceased); Elizabeth Hutchinson, wife of Harvey Knox; Huldah Belle Hutchinson (deceased); H D Hutchinson, and Minnie B Hutchinson.

Eric, It's funny, I was working on the Forward Township Census and I had to take a break but the name I stopped on was Matthews I checked my e-mails and found your posting about your Matthews so I had to reply. In the 1870 Census Records for Forward Twp. ( southernmost part of Allegheny Twp) there is an Alexander Mathews age 52 (carpenter) listed also is his wife Mary ann age 50 and 6 of their children, Susannah ? 26, John 20, Elizabeth 16, Martha 14, Alexander 10, and Anna 8. There are also other Mathew families listed. There is a William Mathew 28 and wife Annie 18. Also a James Mathews 45, and wife Mary Ann 45 and son William 16. ALSO The Gillinghams are listed: Preston 65, Rachel 27, John 23, Sam. 19, William 16, Louis 14, Mary 12, Prest 10, Beth 2. ALSO there are Anderson's listed: William 42, Eliza 31, Sarah Ann 13, Eliza 9, Isabel 9, and Nancy Jean 2. another Anderson family is J.F. 24 ? ( hard to read), Mary 21, William eight months. You mentioned Taylor Cemetery, I don't know if you mean the one in Washington County or the one in Forward Township. There are five Gillinghams buried in Taylor Cemetery in Forward Township above Bunola. I didn't see any Andersons but two of the Gillinghams are your fourth great-grandparents William Preston Gillingham and Euphemia Gillingham. The other Gillinghams are Dawn, Joel and John. Hope this helped you alittle!

Hi List; I am throwing this out to see if anyone has a census from 1850 or 1860 that would include Centerville. I am trying to find Aaron BOOTH(E) or his wife Elizabeth MCVANIE(SIC).

I need the parents, siblings, and burial locations for Samuel W. Smith and Margaret E. (Murray) Smith. Samuel and Margaret were born near Monongahela City. They were married at McKeesport, July 1858, by Rev. Maxwell who was a Methodist minister. Witnesses to the marriage were George B. Smith and Anna E. Smith, possible family members. Samuel joined the Ringgold Cavalry in 1862 and was discharged with an injury in 1863 when he settled at Monongahela city. He was a member of Rankin Post 127, G. A. R. of Boston (near McKeesport). In 1872 he lived in Gratztown and in 1877 Sutersville. He died in a train accident in July 1884 in Sutersville. He was a coal miner by occupation. In 1890 Margaret was living in Blythedale, Allegheny Co., PA. She died at Lash, Westmoreland Co., PA in 1920 and is buried somewhere in West Newton. I am also looking for information about Rhodes & Smith merchants of Blythedale, Allegheny Co.

The following was sent by Marsha.... respond to her at the addy below. -Mike Subj: Re:Coming to America (and the valley) Date: 99-11-15 17:11:43 EST From: [email protected] (Ransom, Marsha J) CC: [email protected] ([email protected]) My LINDEMAN ancestors arrived in 1741 from the Palatinate region of what is now Germany, via Rotterdam, to Philadelphia PA. They emigrated west, settling in various places until they settled in Fayette Co., PA. In 1924, my grandparents, James Winslow and Elizabeth Pearl (BURNSWORTH) LINDERMAN moved to Lock Four, PA, next to Charleroi. They lived there until their death in 1973. I still have an Uncle and cousins living in that Lock Four area. I grew up in Belle Vernon, across the river, but my Dad worked in the Charleroi Post Office for years. Marsha Linderman Ransom >>

In a message dated 99-11-15 13:18:02 EST, you write: << hi! can anyone give the list the approximate boundary lines for the Mon Valley, which this list is all about.... you know, like McKeesport to another town to another town - so we can all look at a map and actually SEE where this area is. i grew up in elizabeth twp, have kin all over belle vernon, sutersville, etc, but still am unsure about exactly where this boundary may be! can anyone give us a connect the dots lesson???? >> Ok... I'll try. My original definition of the Mid Mon Valley, which is the specific area this list was intended for: Any town, burrough or township (including any towns or burroughs that are surrounded by a township) that borders on some part of the Monongahela River, in the counties of Washington, Westmoreland, and Fayette county, (down to and including Luzerne township in Fayette), PLUS any town burrough or township that is "across the river" from an area that fits the above discription, which would include the southernmost portions of Allegheny (Forward twp., and Elizabeth), and the northeast portions of Greene. These boundries are not etched in stone, and I see no harm in extending them north to (McKeesport/Dravosburg), or south into Greene co, (Carmichaels, Dry Tavern, Rices Landing areas). The usefulness of this list as opposed to the Allegheny list for areas of Clariton/McKeesport and north, may be lessened due to the fact that both sides of the river are in Allegheny County. If you had family members who lived in McKeesport, and others who lived in Donora, and you make a connection to your Donora families, and the info about the McKeesporters would interest other members on the list, by all means send it. I, for one would rather have too much information, rather than not enough, or worse, none at all !! If your not familiar with the geography of the area, send the message. Lets keep the subject lines in our messages clear.. If you have specific surnames and Areas in your message, name them in the Sublect Line... If you run out of room put "+more" at the end of the line. I never delete a message that tells me there is more than what could be included in the subject line. Hope this helps!

>From Charleroi Mail, Saturday, May 6, 1944, Page 6: "Use Penicillin To Aid Jeannette Man Burned In Foundry Greensburg, May 6--(UP)--Results of the first use of penicillin in Westmoreland county since the new curative was allotted to the Westmoreland hospital as a distribution center for this county was awaited today in the case of a Jeannette foundry worker critically burned by molten metal. The hospital's first allotment of the drug, 10,000,000 units, arrived yesterday and immediately was prescribed for Alphonse CATALON, to whom sulpha drugs previously had been administered without effect. Ten thousand penicillin units were administered intravenously to CATALNO(sic) who was burned from the waist down, on both arms and on the face at the Semler Foundry in Jeannette three weeks ago. While hospitalized for the burns he also developed pneumonia." Note--this penicillin probably didn't do anything for the poor man either. Usual dose is 1.6 Million Units for 10 days--not enough in the single dose he got, and not enough total available.

I agree with the comments about Genealogy being more that a data name search. Also, if we place a correct title on the SUBJECT line, those who did not wish to read that particular data could easily skip on to what was pertinent for them. (This is particularly helpful when I am rushed for time) PS, I enjoy the information data and information like old names for diseases, etc. Sometimes you find some strange cause of death and it's nice to have heard of the old name for that disease/condition. ----- Original Message ----- From: Esther Nixon <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, November 14, 1999 7:18 PM Subject: Re: [PAMONVAL] Movie Names I agree 100%. there is more to Genealogy than names and dates.> Items from the newspapers reflect life, as it was lived during that time period.
