Northumberland Co. & Schuylkill Co., Pennsylvania
« on: Friday 20 March 09 20:46 UTC (UK) »
I am a native of Northumberland County, Pennsylvania.  My hometown of Shamokin is the southwest point of a PA’s huge anthracite coal mining region that drew Irish, Welsh, and English immigrants looking for work -- many from Cornwall. 

I’m willing to lookup anything related to Cornish folk in Northumberland Co. and neighboring Schuylkill Co. (largest city there is Pottsville).  I have immediate access to Shamokin cemetery and funeral home records.  And, while I currently live 100 miles away, when I go back “home” for visits I can look up other things there -- such as marriage licenses, which started in 1885; and obituaries, which are available starting in 1923 for Shamokin and in the late 1880s in Pottsville.  Plus census records from 1860-1920 (minus 1890).

If your folks came to my neck of the woods, please give me specifics and I’ll help or advise if I can!  To request a lookup, do not reply to this message -- please start a new topic in the “Cornwall Census and Resource Lookup Request” board.

Cheers,
~JudyLynn
