You might have noted the absence of ohio-valley-l@rootsweb.com from the CC
list-- it is because I subtracted it. It is the only one that has a
"closed" list-- you can only post to it if you are a member. It is their
safeguard against spammers.
Several on that list I thought had already done this-- what happened?
Of course it may be that the Ohio List was the only one I got a message
from-- others might be closed and you just don't get a message back.
At any rate, I guess you know you can choose this pr

David, I have read your, et al., comments...
You make some crucial points, and while I was surprised at the callousnous
of some, the belittling of the problem, the gloss-over solutions...
Fact is, you describe the problem-- any solutions, besides "Now children,
stop it?" The idea to only submit what you know to be documented fact
would work-- 99% of the time. But documents are sometimes in error, and

On Dec.2, 1895 Joseph and Missoura McIntosh were going home to Brownsville,
Pa. by a dog boat when they and three other men and one woman ran into the
steamship James G. Blaine at 11:00 in the evening. Everyone except one man
drowned. The others were: Mrs. James Stevens, John Picknup, and William

Hi Everybody, Just in case anyone is wondering about how many families
with the surnames listed in the cemetary are still living in the
Uniontown area, I would say quite a few. I recognized a lot of the
surnames as people that I either went to school with or taught. In fact,
one of my friends, Patti Deli is married to a DAVID and teaches in
Albert Gallatin School Dictrict. So you might want to try People Search
or 411. Just my 2 cents here.

My Great Grandfather was William J RYAN born 1868 from the
Mahanoy City area of PA. His parents are both from Ireland as shown on
the 1900 Phila Census. In 1900 he is shown living in Phila with his
wife's family and his own family. I have not found out when they all
moved to Phila , but I assume it was shortly after 1890.
I have a recreated baptismal certificate from St Canicus Church in
Mahanoy City for Oct 16 1868 for William RYAN born
on Oct 12 1868. Father

I have found information from a variety of sources including Ancestry

WFT however, blots out the source information and lists the source as
