Pa Query Forum Board URL: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Pa/Venango?read=1967 Surname: Snowden ------------------------- Does anybody have any earlier information on a George R. Snowden of the 142nd Pennsylvania Volunteers. It is my understanding that he lived during some part of his life in Venngo County, Penn.

In a never-ending quest, I'm looking for any information about the descendants of Andrew McKelvy and Elizabeth Grey of Barkeyville, Irwin Township, Venango County. Andrew operated a hotel at "the Corners" in Barkeyville, died in 1872, and was buried in the Old Log Cemetery. I'm also looking for any information about the family of Eliza Bigley, who married John H. McKelvy at Barkeyville in 1864. John and Eliza lived at Barkeyville for some time, then emigrated to Kansas in 1879. John served in Company K, 4th Regiment, Pennsylvania Cavalry; his brother(?) WIlliam served in the same company, was captured by the Rebels, sent to Andersonville, and died February 1864 at Richmond.
