Subject: A National Obituary Source.
Hello, Fellow Central PA. researchers.
My name is Don Varner and my roots lie in your area. I participate in a
nation wide obituary information listing. By being a contributor to this
program, I have the opportunity to get information on obituaries from all over
the United States and Canada.
My ancestors came from Germany in 1732 and first settled in York (Now
Adams) CountyPA. My line of descent is: Hans Adam Warner/Varner > Christofel
Nicholas > Samuel S. > Jacob G. > U. Grant > Irvin
"Roy" > Wade > ME
(Donald.) My direct line has worked westward to
present day Cambria County
where I grew up and where my direct line has been centered since the late
1700's. By the way, I now live near Annapolis, MD and I contribute
information from the Annapolis Capital, newspaper. Since my roots lie in your
area of
Pennslyvania, I am particularly interested in obituraries from several of the
local papers.
There are currently dozens of papers being reported on from Pennslyvania
but the following publication are available should anyone choose to be a
contributor:
Altoona Mirror - Altoona PA - available
Hollidaysburg Standard - Hollidaysburg PA - available
Johnstown Tribune-Democrat - Johnston PA - available
There are probably other publications in that area which would qualify as
well.
If you would like to learn more about this program, please visit the
Obituary Daily Times Web Site at
http://www.best.com/~shuntsbe/obituary/ for
the Official information or, if you prefer, just contact me. I have been a
particpent for some
time and have gotten some useful information. Other than being a contributor,
I
have no role in this program. My only (selfish) interest is to have access to
obituary information from that georgrahical area.
Many people will see this who are not from that geographic area. I
recommend this program to all of you. There may be a publication in your area
not currently being reported.
I also realize that many subscribe to several of the addressed listings,
I'm sorry about the duplication of your messages.
