In regards to Ed's post on the 1872 Rpt of Fatal Accidents in Luzerne can
someone help me place the following mine?

Ontario colliery.

He reported a John SWIFT age 16, who died on 10/24, 1872.

I am researching SWIFT's of Luzerne and Lackawanna and would love to talk
with anyone who may also be researching them. I have some data online at
the following URL if interested:
http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~cranford/cathy1.html

The following families tie in, KELLY/KELLEY, GARDNER, CARDEN, CONWAY,
RICHARDS, MCTIGUE, GORDON, MCDONNELL, MCDONALD, MURPHY, CADDEN, OWENS,
SHARP/E, MCKOWAN, NOONAN and several more that possibly tie in such as
EARLY and DOUGHERTY thru baptismal records.

I will also pass this on to the Luzerne list so those of you who are on
both lists, I apologize for the repeat messages.

Sincerely,
Cathy Cranford-Ailstock
