Dawn Temple: I do not respond very often and thanks for your help on many issues. The Rev War pensions issue is very interesting. My wife and I drove to the David Library just outside of Philadelphia a few years ago for the record of a pension for a great (Several times) grandfather Isaiah CRANDALL. There are several pages to each pensions. However, you now can pull "all" Rev War pensions on Heritage quest. from home. It may be prohibitive to pay for that service independently but many library's include it in their databases. The best deal is the Godfrey Library in Con. ($35 a year for their whole program including Heritage). john B John Borland JBORL19492 @aol.com

Just thought I'd let everyone knw that the Westmoreland County tax lists 1786-1810 are available from the National Genealogical Society on sale for 6.00-with postage 13.30! Still it is usually 12.00 so it is a savings. Here is a link-once there go to the bookstore. http://www.chop.edu/consumer/pat_care_fam_serv/staff_profile_page.jsp?id=47919&lid=27762 There also is an index to Revolutionary War Pensions if you need that type of information for 47.00 on sale. A little steep, but it is less than the 85.99 they usually charge! Dawne

The photos can be scanned and sent to Pennsylvania Old Photos, part of Family Old Photos, a great site. http://www.familyoldphotos.com/pa/index.html Dawne ----- Original Message ----- From: <ace1125@bellsouth.net> To: <PAWESTMO-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Friday, May 13, 2005 5:39 PM Subject: [PAWESTMO-L] Vandergrift data >I am scanning photos, obits, and odd articles re: my friends family.

I am scanning photos, obits, and odd articles re: my friends family. His mother saved LOTS of data on other people... friends, priests...etc.... Would you like it if I scanned this data and sent it to the list? If not, is there a place to send them for people to access...ie the webmaster of your website? Let me know while I am on a roll doing this... <g> Cheryl

My grandmother is buried in Yukon cemetery but I can't find her grave, and I was told there isn't a plot map. Is anyone familiar with this place? Georgia

My grandmother is buried in Yukon cemetery but I can't find her grave, and I was told there isn't a plot map. Is anyone familiar with this place? This is my first posting. If you're not familiar with the The Old Miner's website you can see a picture of the my grandfather's company house at http://patheoldminer.rootsweb.com/index1.html Georgia

Has anyone done research at the Westmoreland County Historical Society? According to OUR NATIVE AMERICANS : Their Records of Genealogical Value Volumes I, by E Kay Kirkham. The Westmoreland County Historical Society has materials on local Indians. I recently ordered copies of their Magazine: INDIANS, Native Americans Winter '95 Vol 1 # 4 Warriors Winter '95 Vol 1 # 4 RELIGIONS of Native Peoples in OHIO VALLEY Winter '97 Vol 2 # 4 Will be in the area this summer and wondered what else they might have available. Thanks in advance for any suggestions. Laurie

Mari, It appears your cousin Frank Dyer couldn't trace the Robert Gibson family any further back either, from his postings in the online LDS databases. Unfortunately, he does not show your John as one of the five children with Elvia Bartlett. You might contact him to see if he has more data. ======================== FamilySearch™ International Genealogical Index v5.0 North America Husband Robert Gibson Birth: 07 MAR 1793 , Westmoreland, Pennsylvania Christening: Marriage: 30 JAN 1817 Marietta, , , Ohio Death: 19 MAY 1866 Wife Elvia Bartlett Birth: 14 MAY 1797 Providence, Providence, Rhode Island Marriage: 30 JAN 1817 Marietta, , , Ohio Death: APR 1838 Children 1. Minerva Gibson Birth: About 1830 Marietta, Washington, Ohio 2. David Gibson Birth: About 1832 Marietta, Washington, Ohio 3. Luther Gibson Birth: About 1834 Marietta, Washington, Ohio 4. Calvin Gibson Birth: About 1836 Marietta, Washington, Ohio 5. Abigail Gibson Birth: 1838 Marietta, Washington, Ohio =============================== The 1850 census shows Calvin living with John in Piketon, Pike Co, OH BTW, it is a good idea to make your subject line meaningful. Usually the recommended format is "name SURNAME, place, date". Many people will immediately delete messages with titles like "New to List", "Genealogy", and "Help".

I inadvertently, cleaned my files too fast... Would the lady wanting some pix re: her mother Zelma, please recontact me? Thanks Cheryl

My name is Mari Martin, I now live in Ohio by way of Missouri. I am researching a John Gibson, born in Marietta Oh in 1820. I have found one John Gibson born between 1820 and 1825 in Marietta, his father was Robert Gibson born Mar 7 1793 in Westmoreland County PA. Can anyone tell me where I would look for info on Robert Gibsons birth. I have no information as to his parents. I do know that he married Liva(Elvira) Bartlett in 1817 in Marietta OH. Her parents were Jeremiah (twin)Bartlett and Jershua Jefferies. Mari
