Genealogy of the Woodcock Valley

Hello!

I am researching Showalter, Bruss, McConnaughy, Hardy in the Huntingdon County area. I look forward to learning more about everyone's research.

Best Regards,

Sally Carter

Norman, Oklahoma

Finally found out where My Father George Galla spent his time in the CCC

Our name is Scott and Kay Weller. We live in Jackson Ga. Scott is from Huntingdon Pa,and  is kin to the Groves, Wellers and Morningstars. I have done a lot of research on our Weller family. I  would like to share it with anyone that would like. Scotts dad was Norman Glenn,his father was Raymond, his father was Luther Elmer, his father was Edward David and his father was Christian. They were all either from Huntingdon or Mill Creek. Hopefully someone will help me fill in the blanks that I have.

I am researching my ancestors, Joseph Norris & Mary Moody pinoeer settlers in Hopewell Twp., now Penn Twp. I am a board member and volunteer at Huntingdon County Historical Society. I have recently computerized all the records of the Old Stone Lutheran Church, Marklesburg ,Pa. If anyone needs info about the Old Stone Church burials I will be glad to assist you dnorris66@hotmail.com

I am researching the Blatt / Ealy / Cunningham /  Swoope families who lived in the Huntingdon area for generations.  My parents moved out West from Pennsylvania in 1940, consequently I do not know much about my Pennsylvania connections.

I discovered a civil war letter in my mother's effects after she passed away in 2009 and have been on the search to reveal the connection of the author (Cyrus G. Swoope) to my family.  We also have an old land deed, printed on sheepskin, dated 1789 and signed by Benjamin Franklin.  I am trying to find out more about this too. These finds have instilled in me a real desire to find out more about my family's ancestors.  

I am especially interested in finding the identity of the parents of my great, great grandfather, Gustaves Cunningham.  My grandfather,  James Cunningham, was married to Anna Mary Blatt.  They divorced in the 1930s so we have very little knowledge of the Cunningham side of our family.  I have found some info. but wish to know more.  James was also one of about 10-12 children and was a brother of Minnie Mertie Fisher and Harriet Fouse.  I would love to know more about his relatives, esp. sharing of any pictures.  I will be glad to share what I do have.    

I was born and raised in Hesston. Went to Hesston one room school through 4th grade. Then went to Woodcock Valley. Would like to get post on this site of families.

thank you

My wife is the great granddaughter of Davis G. Enyeart and have become interested in this area through research of her family tree.
