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 >>
