    1. [PAYork] Poor Children of Conewago Twp 1842
    2. Pam Pearson
    3. I was recently going through the Conewago Township tax records and I came across this 1842 listing of the poor children in the township. I found lists of the poor children for other years, but this list stood out from the rest. It appears to give the dates of birth for most of the children listed. I hope this information proves helpful to someone. Good luck.
