A few weeks ago they were moved to the Mahanoy City Public Library and will be UNAVAILABLE for at least two years. The library has undertaken the project to have the newspapers copied digitally. There are about 50 volumes that are in such bad shape it isn't certain if they can be copied. If you wish to contribute to the project to help preserve these papers, send your check made payable to Newspaper Project, Mahanoy City Library and mail it to Mahanoy City Library 17-19 W Mahanoy St Mahanoy City PA 17948 Many thanks, Shirley Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

Please be aware that copies of the Record American are NOT available for viewing. ================================= NEWSPAPER PROJECT...VOLUNTEERS NEEDED Message List Reply | Forward Message #5209 of 5294 < Prev | Next > As many of you know the Mahanoy City Public Library is going to undertake the project of digitalizing the old copies of the Tribune and Record American newspapers. The old newspapers from the Record American need to be moved from the Shenandoah Evening Herald Office to the Mahanoy City Public Library. The first step of the move is to move the ledgers from the third floor storage area to an place of easier access. Volunteers are needed to help move the ledgers from the third to first floor of the Herald's office. Another move will be schedule to actually move them to the library. The ledgers are VERY fragile and must be handled with care. If you are an able bodied male who can give a few hours of your time, please contact Tom Ward at 570-467-3476...leave a message on the answering machine if he isn't at home. Tom will give you the details as to date/time/place of where you will be volunteering. The papers are being moved so they can be digitalized...THEY WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE FOR PUBLIC VIEW UNTIL THAT PROCESS IS COMPLETED so please do not start calling the library asking to view the papers or for a lookup. They do not have the volunteers to assist you at this time. Many thanks for your help... Shirley Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

He died and she married Denis Toomey in 1904 and James F. Purcell in the1911-1930 time frame - have requested record). Appreciate any help or suggestions. Thanks very much. Sheila K.

This message is being cross posted so you may received duplicate messages. There are no 'easy' research methods for locating your ancestors but there are 3 research sites that cover a good part of Northeastern Pennsylvania that will serve you. The managers of the three list...Elaine and Deb, Tom, and myself...are more than welling to help you with your search and we have decided the best way to do that is to have the three lists work together. Elaine's message below gives a brief description of what each of the Yahoo sites offer in the way of research for the Northeast PA sectors of Schuylkill, Columbia, Luzerne, and other counties surrounding these three. As Elaine mentions in her opening statement..."our ancestors moved around" and so must you if you expect to find them. Good searching... Shirley 1.
