About Me

I am the creator of Genealogy of the Woodcock Valley. My goal is to share all of the information I have collected over the years and will continue to collect. My collecting has slowed down tremendously, since I now have a son, who keeps me quite busy. I am also a full time first grade teacher. My main lines of research include: Riley, Garner, Isett, Norris, Fisher, Anderson, Kinch, Creighton, and Watson. However, I am game for almost any name from Huntingdon County!

About Me

I have spent the last ten years researching my ancestor John David Fisher. He married Margaret Weaver and moved from Huntindon, Pa in 1854 to Illinois. He purchased 40 acres of land in 1850 for $1.25 an acre. The land grant is signed by Willard Fillmore President of the United States. My quest to prove whom where his parents. There are so mamy Henry Fishers and and just need to sort out the correct one.

I carry on the Fisher trait of height, being the shortest of four brothers at six foot three inches. My day was six foot five inches tall. Thanks to Deb Fisher Riley for pointing out this web site.

About Me

I'm older than dirt. Was born in Tyrone, Blair Co., PA. My family, for many generations, came from Central PA. We moved to Meadville, Crawford Co., PA, when I was a baby as the Viscose had opened a plant here, and it was depression days. I have 4 grown daughters, 6 grown grandchildren, and I'm deeply into genealogy.

I retired from Hillsborough Co., Tampa, Fl Schools as an Assistant Kindergarten Teacher in 2009. After 24 years with little 5 and 6 year olds, it's time to move on!

I am married to John Corio (47 yrs) , with two grown children - Angela 41 yrs old and Vincent 33 years old. We have one grandaughter and another one due in August 2013 and two step grandchildren. They keep us very busy!

My hobbies are Genealogy and Jewelry making - Wire Art Sculpturing, . I have done several craft shows in the Tampa area at local church Boutiques.

I've also completed many binder books of family info and placed at Genealogical Society in Blair County, Pa.

John and I also do a lot of walking and traveling since we are both retired.

My "brickwall" is Henry HUGHS/HUGHES b. c. 1800 in Ireland who married Martha Jane (unknown). Henry could be a middle name that he went by - possible first name - James or John! Martha may have a maiden name of "Davis" - my GGGrandfather was John Davis Hughs/Hughes b. 1825 in Centre Co., Pa. He also lived in Huntingdon, Pa before finally settling in Altoona.

My Huntingdon Co. names: Hughes, Hicks, Jackson, Westbrook, Simpson, Dougherty
