- ----------------------------------
Dear cousins & friends,
I have a very special request for your help. Perhaps you may know of
someone who can check out some information for us in the McKeesport,
Pennsylvania area?
Rod Carnahan and Phil Carnahan are trying to sort out an important question
regarding T.A. Carnahan and Thomas P. Carnahan. To do so, we need someone
who is able to check certain civil courthouse and other records pertaining
to the McKeesport general area, dating from the mid-1800's through 1900.
The type of records we need to check out include some of the following, if
such records exist:
Orphans Court records, marriage license records, obituary information, deed
records, tax rolls, church records, Masonic lodge records, G.A.R. veteran
organization records, birth records of children, veterans hospital records
(if there were such hospitals in the post Civil War era), etc.
I you can help in any way, or if you know of someone who can help, please
contact me ASAP. This is a very special project.
Thanks,
Norman F. Carnahan
