Yes Fennelltown exists, but not in the terms you would think of town now days. There are no stores, streets ect., it is just a rural community that kept the name from 200 years ago. Here is an excerpt from 200 years of History 1776-1976(New Alexandria, Pa) John Fennell and his wife Elizabeth became the owners of a large tract of land situated about six miles west of Saltsburg and here at these crossroads grew the town known as Fennelltown. About 150 years ago, a church building was erected by the Fennells in which Lutherans and the members of the Reformed Church held their services on alternate Sundays. Later the Reformed Church sold out their share to the Lutherans and erected a new building. I hope this helps.
