My Champion Family is also PA. My GGrandfather was John S Champion
(1839-1902) . He was married twice: Sarah C Schaffer (she drowned in 1872)
and then Angeline Elizabeth Kirkland (1854-1939). John S Champion's parents
were James Franklin Champion (1815-1881) and Mariah (Polly) Dorworth
1812-1894) The 1850 Census has them in Heath Twp. Jefferson County PA .
Do any of these names show up in your research?
