Actually, the "poorhouse" in Waybe County was only for residents of Texas Township and later Honesdale. The cemetery is still there, although there are no markers.

Looking for info/descendants of William & Fanny (McGowty) Doolittle. Daughters Lucetta & Julia. In 1880 they were still in Manchester Twsp., Wayne Co. By 1890 William may have passed away & Fanny was living at 28 Canaan St., Carbondale, Lackawanna Co. In 1892 Fanny was at 9 Dickson Hill, Carbondale & her then widowed mother, Julia Ann (HUDSON) McGowty, born abt. 1812-13, was lliving with her. Fanny was born abt. 1849, daughter of Elisha McGowty & Julia Ann HUDSON. Hoping for another connection & possibly living descendants of my HUDSON family. Any clues appreciated. Jean (Hudson) McNamara

This may help you: According to a book by Oren E. Spangenburg: Chapter VII ---- Family of John Spangenburg, Jr. (1780-1856) page 58 ---- by 2nd wife Mary Bronson: Levi b.1842 d. 1865 age 23 m. Elizabeth Carey (did he die in the Civil War, I wonder?) At the end of this chapter is a note: Information re the descendants of John Spangenberg Sr. are from Leroy E. Wright of East Orange, NJ 1956 Oren's address: 605 Country Place Drive Lancster, PA to buy his book Good luck - Mary ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

There is a Leona Spangenberg Tonkin who lives today in Carbondale, perhaps she is a relative.

I've found some information on migrations to Wayne might be of interest to someone Peter Bartleson b. 1792 migrated to Purdytown, Wayne PA in about the year 1812. This area became known as "Bartleson Hill" thereafter. (source: son Henry Bartleson's obit.) John Sharp b. 1792 CT migrated westward and bought land in Wayne (Canaan twp.?) in 1813. (source: courthouse record of land sale) William Harris and Betsey Sharp came to Hemlock Hollow (Lakeville), Wayne PA in 1828 (source: son CHarles Harris' obit.) Holly

Can anyone help me figure out how a Leona Spangenberg fits into the Spangenberg family? I have no definite dates, but am trying to link her to Levi Spangenberg, d. 1865, 1st husband of Eliza Carey. Lisa Carey L'Archevesque
