Fort Reed (1775 - 1778), Lock Haven A settlers' fort evacuated during the "Big Runaway" of 1778. A few miles south of the present location of Fort Indiantown Gap, in 1755, the house of Adam Reed, Esquire, was turned into a fort. Reed used this fort to protect the people of the countryside from sudden Indian attacks. One might say that Adam Reed was the first “Commander” of Fort Indiantown Gap. Ft. Indiantown Gap.

Kate, if you just google "Fort Reed" you'll see a bunch in different states. What's important is what time period you are referring to because I see reference to Colonial, Civil and French/Indian wars.

Hi All- This is an AMAZING website-I am looking for ANY information about a train wreck that occurred near Albany, NY about 1920 when the Hudson River was frozen. My uncle was supposed to have been a mail clerk on that train and he received grave injuries that kept him hospitalized for more than 7 years. He was never the same afterwards, suffering from paranoia, thinking that someone was coming to kill him everywhere he went. He lived with my grandmother until his death (and his children were made wards of the state when his wife was institutionalized as a schizophrenic.) Sad family story, but I remember him as a gifted musician and a very personable fellow. Ironic, that there was a wreck listed there from my hometown of Middletown, NY. I will definitely keep this as a favorite site to visit. Peggie in soggy Oregon. -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.

Just wanted you to know that someone did try to help you with no luck. If he died, she could have remarried but you'd think the kid would have kept his name. Can't find them anywhere--even tried the Illinois State Archives.

Hi, I am at my wits end trying to find the parents of Joseph Frank b.(? 1826) in PA. At the age of 26(?) he is listed in the 1850 Census in Perry County, PA. My Joseph Frank would have married between 1850-1852 in PA to a woman named Mary. By 1860 they are listed in Elgin, Kane County, IL. I believe he died between 1860-1870. His children were Edgar b. 1852-PA., William b.1854-PA., Kate b. 1857-IL., Francis and Charles(twins) b. May 1, 1860-IL. This is all the information I have on the whole family and I can't go anywhere, any help would surely be appreciated. Thank you, Gayla [email protected]

In a message dated 9/16/2006 6:10:42 PM Eastern Standard Time, [email protected] writes: Does it sound like Christian's sister married Henry Stouffer? It does, but I am not convinced I sort of lean to Henry being his brother, but I have no reason for my leaning, well maybe the 1860 is why. Do you have census access? If not I have saved this and can send it to you. I also finally found him in 1850 with "Susan" and two children Mary and Emma, and indeed Henry. Christian is a Machinist and Henry a Mechanic and the rest are blacksmiths.

This is a little confusing because you stated you are descended from the union with his first wife, Sarah who died in 1862. Are you sure of this death date. If so, how did he marry again and which of the children are his with Sarah and which with Susan?

List, I am at my wits end trying to find the parents of Christian Stouffer b.11-20-1820 d.11-13-1896. Christian was born in Chambersburg, Franklin Co. First wife's name was Sarah Burkholder b.4-8-1825 d.2-14-1862. I am decended from this marriage. The only thing I know about this family is that according to the 1880 census Christian had a brother-in-law named Henry Stouffer age 65 living with him. Am I correct that a Stouffer married a Stouffer ? Anyone know of this family? I have exhausted all the normal channels of information. Thanks, Jim Stouffer

Good morning everyone! According to an oral history interview with my grandmother and father, my grandfather was educated at a school called O'Hales. We are not even sure of the spelling. They think it was a one room school house. It was located near the borough of Dillsburg, Pennsylvania in York County. From a few well educated guesses, we think it was located in what is now called Carrol Township and has since been turned into a house. Anyone have any leads or heard of it? Any recommendations from the list on how to go about finding more information? Thanks so much, Thomas Baker York Haven, PA
