Does anyone out there have experience in researching Irish miners in Schuylkill County c1870-1880? I am wondering where most Irish Catholics were buried if they lived in the area of Mahanoy City and died during that time frame. Advice from past experience with this would be much appreciated. Kelly

>From Shirley Ryan, Mahanoy City list on Yahoo, in response to a question I posted on Cantwells mahanoycitytownship@yahoogroups.com Gary I'm assuming that the family you are searching CANTWELL were Irish? The Irish Catholic Church in MC is St. Canicus. They do not have burial records due to a fire. There is no compilation of that particular cemetery (the compilation would only provide name if there was a headstone...without a headstone they would not be in the compilation). I did check the German Catholic Cemetery, St. Fidelis, but did not find a Cantwell. -----Original Message----- From: paschuyl-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:paschuyl-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Kelly Jean McEntee Sent: Saturday, May 19, 2007 8:47 AM To: paschuyl@rootsweb.com Subject: [PASCHUYL] Irish in Schuylkill Co 1800s Does anyone out there have experience in researching Irish miners in Schuylkill County c1870-1880?
