I've "rescued" an old photograph of Mary E. CLIFF which was taken at the Allen Studio in Pottsville, Pennsylvania. The photograph appears to have been taken in the 1880's with Mary likely only about 3 years old at the time it was taken. Based on limited research I was able to locate the family in census records as follows: 1900 census of Port Carbon Boro, PA: Joseph A. CLIFF, age 34, born Nov 1865, married 10 years, born PA, parents born PA, a Railroad Fireman Mary CLIFF, wife, age 32, born July 1867, married 10 years, 3 children/3 living, born PA, parents born Ireland Joseph CLIFF, son, age 9, born Aug 1890, born PA, at School Mary CLIFF, dau, age 8, born Nov 1891, born PA, at School William CLIFF, son, age 3, born Nov 1896, born PA 1910 census of Port Carbon Boro, PA: Joseph CLIFF Sr., age 40, married 22 years, born PA, parents born PA, a Coal Mine Carpenter Mary CLIFF, wife, age 37, married 22 years, 6 children/6 living, born PA, parents born Ireland Joseph CLIFF Jr., son, age 19, born PA, a Coal Mine Laborer Mary CLIFF Jr., dau, age 17, born PA, a Private Family Nurse William CLIFF, son, age 12, born PA Hellen CLIFF, dau, age 7, born PA Gertrude CLIFF, dau, age 5, born PA Edward CLIFF, son, age 2, born PA I am hoping to locate someone from this family so that this precious old photograph can be returned to its rightful place with family. If you are a member of this family, or you know someone who might be, please contact me. Thanks, Shelley

Has anyone else connected to any MCENTEE in MAHANOY CITY, SCHUYLKILL County, PA? I have Mary A. MCENTEE, married Michael DOYLE, c. 1877. They were living in Mahanoy City, Schuylkill County, PA, in 1880 and 1900. Mary A. (McEntee) Doyle was living in Bayonne, Hudson County, NJ, in 1910 and 1920, as a widow. Mary A. (McEntee) Doyle was a sister to my GGrandfather, Patrick McEntee, who lived in Philadelphia c. 1875-1900. She also raised my grandfather, Stephen Jerome McEntee (son of Patrick), when he was orphaned c. 1909. Please contact me if you know of the connection of McEntee in Mahanoy City anytime in 1800s. Thank you, Kelly McEntee

In the 1850 Census for Schuylkill Twp., Schuylkill County, PA, Hallender (aka Ellen/Eleanor) WILLIAMS, age 8, born in Wales is a daughter in the household of Evan, 47, collier, and Mary, 40, WILLIAMS. She is shown as Ellen, 19, in the 1860 census for Tuscarora, and was still living with her parents. In the 1870 census, there are two Ellens who could be a married Ellen WILLIAMS. They are: 1. Shenandoah - Ellen LEWIS, 29 Wales, husband Abraham 30 Wales, miner, p. 591B. 2. Mahanoy Twp. - Ellen ROBERTS, 30 Wales, husband Samuel 28 Wales, ch: Hannah 9 PA, Jane 5 PA, Harriet 3 PA, Mary 3/12 PA, p. 499B. This family was in the 1880 census for Shenandoah, and Samuel ROBERTS was shown as born in England and his parents in Wales. In 1880, additional children were: Samuel 7, Harriet A. 3, and Minnie 9/12. Any help in determining if either of these Ellens might be the Ellen WILLIAMS mentioned above would be greatly appreciated.
