    3. Hi, This message is connected with genealogy in that my grandfather, Samuel Weary, worked with Thomas Edison in the setup and follow-thru of the first street lights in Pennsylvania which, family history says, happened in the town of Mt. Carmel. I notice that an internet search indicates that Sunbury was the first electric-lighted town. Which is correct? Thanks, Elida of Dixie
