PA Two of the things she ta 1 CONC ught were General H istory and Physical Geography. Pauline was certified f 1 CONC or grades one through eight. 1 CONT 1 CONT Pauline met the Byrnes family in Nicktown when she was a girl visiting h 1 CONC er Uncle Frank in Nic ktown. 1 CONT 1 CONT After talking to J.

Further research on the internet reveals: 1 CONT 1 CONT http://www.stippler.net/html/ger/frames/neben/treffen2004/vortrag.html 1 CONT One of the interesting facts is that my grandfather’s mother was a maid 1 CONC en Schroth. And the Schroths of Saubsdorf are distantly related to the Sch 1 CONC roths of Lindewiese. They all can be traced back to their progenitor Bart 1 CONC el Schroth, who lived from 1540 to 1612. The most famous family representa 1 CONC tive was Johann Schroth who was born in 1798. In 1829 he founded the clima 1 CONC tic health spa of Lindewiese. The spa got its permission by a royal edi 1 CONC ct in Vienna in 1840. The spa is specialized on balneotherapy of skin dise 1 CONC ases and diseases caused by metabolic derangement as well as glandes wi 1 CONC th internal secretion. Descendants of Johann Schroth worked at the s 1 CONC pa as doctors till 1946. In 1945 the Czech state took over the whole prope 1 CONC rty. Luckily it became a private enterprise in 1992. The spa buildings ha 1 CONC ve a total capacity of about 230 beds and 3,000 patients come here every y 1 CONC ear. Up-to-date methods and devices (massages, hydrotherapy, electrotherap 1 CONC y, paraffin bath) are used in therapy. By that the Schroth spa helps ev 1 CONC en today to restore the health conditions of thousands of patients. 1 CONT 1 CONT Johann SchrothPrinter Friendly FormatBookmark this pageBack to "Alternati 1 CONC ve physician"Page modified: Saturday, June 24, 2006 00:18:11 1 CONT 1 CONT Johann Schroth, also Johannes Schroth (* 11 February 1798 in with Freiwald 1 CONC au; "? 26.

It was called also roll docto 1 CONC r, because dry rolls were an important component of the cure. 1 CONT 1 CONT Over date of birth of Johann the Schroth gives it different data, eith 1 CONC er to 1797 or 1798; there is also the indication 2 February 1800. General 1 CONC ly 11 February 1798 is accepted. Its place of birth belonged too Austri 1 CONC an to Schlesien. Another nature-sound, Vincenz Priessnitz, was in the prim 1 CONC ary school a schoolmate of Schroth. After the early death of his father i 1 CONC ts nut/mother married a wagoner from Niederlindewiese, where the family pu 1 CONC lled then. 1 CONT 1 CONT With approximately 18 years Schroth was hurt by the hoof impact of a hor 1 CONC se at the right knee, which thereupon remained rigid. A monk of the med 1 CONC al of the Barmherzigen brothers is to have guessed/advised him to cold env 1 CONC elopes. After several weeks Schroth noticed a clear improvement, on whi 1 CONC ch he used this "?therapy"? also with others. Strange to say Priessnitz de 1 CONC veloped its water therapy likewise in this way by a nearly identical accid 1 CONC ent. Schroth attributed the welfare effect however above all to the damp w 1 CONC armth and developed one completebody-winds. 1 CONT 1 CONT A further element of its Schrothkur, which took with "?drying days"?, Schr 1 CONC oth observations at gotten sick cattle, which refused, hardly drank then t 1 CONC he fodder and little moved. That brought it on the idea to transfer this b 1 CONC ehavior as cure to ill humans. This method obviously showed successe 1 CONC s, in addition, and Schroth turned out soon into the call, a "?miracle doc 1 CONC tor"? to be, as Scharlatan was designated and of the Kurpfuscherei accuse 1 CONC d. Thus 19 turned out in. Century also the trailers of the Priessnitz wat 1 CONC er cure and those the Schrothkur into a violent method controversy. The ge 1 CONC neral German biography judges in addition: "?However at both establishme 1 CONC nt places of the Curen, in lime tree meadow and in much was the one (Pries 1 CONC snitz, suppl.) wanted to propel his patients with cold water, with many be 1 CONC verages flooding, with rough food by the organism for Selbstheilung; the o 1 CONC ther one (Schroth, suppl.) wanted, so much than possible liquids extractin 1 CONC g, the water internally shrinking from and the dry food and the damp warm 1 CONC th huldigen."? 1 CONT 1 CONT Already during lifetimes Schroths gave it beside Lobeshymnen also viole 1 CONC nt criticism, particularly from the medical profession.

John M. Lenhart, O.F.M. Cap. Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania . In th 1 CONC is document Lenhart quotes Robert L. Johnston writing about the conditio 1 CONC ns of these early pioneers of which the Byrne family is one. The citati 1 CONC on for Robert L. Johnston is: Robert L. Johnston, Hisotry of Cambria Count 1 CONC y, Pa. in Egle's History of Pennsylvania. Harrisburg, Pa., 1876, p. 468. 1 CONT 1 CONT The hardships endured by the settlers of Cambria County during those ear 1 CONC ly years were described in 1840 by Robert L. Johnston of Ebensburg as foll 1 CONC ows: "The hardships endured bythe settlers are almost incredible. Expos 1 CONC ed to the inclemencyof a long allegheny winter, against the rigors of whic 1 CONC htheir hasitly erected and scantily furnished huts afford a poor protectio 1 CONC n, their sufferings were sometimes almost beyond endurance. Yet with the m 1 CONC ost unyielding firmnesss did these men persevere until they secured for th 1 CONC em selves and their posterity the inheritance which the latter at prese 1 CONC nt enjoy. There was nothing that could be dignified withthe name of a ro 1 CONC ad by which the settlers might have intercourse with the settlements of t 1 CONC he neighboring Huntington County. A miserable Indian path led from the vid 1 CONC inity of where Loretto now stand and intersects the road leading to Franks 1 CONC town" (Blair County). 1 CONT 1 CONT Also from Lenhart in the document outlined above when talking about the co 1 CONC nditions for our pioneer families: 1 CONT 1 CONT Ye the wild country possessed its compensations; it porvided the settle 1 CONC rs with fertile land and extensive pastures in a healthy climate. The high 1 CONC lands of the Allegheny Mountains were entirely free from fevers and all ma 1 CONC larious diseases. Wild beasts abounded; panthers and wolves would make unp 1 CONC leasant music. On the other hand, game provided welcome and inexpensive me 1 CONC at for the family table, and the sport of hunting brough diversion into t 1 CONC he lives of th emen. Love of nature exerted its refining influence on al 1 CONC l, old and young. These attractions were exceptionally strong in Cambria C 1 CONC ounty with its picturesque scenery. Treading on their own soil mad eth set 1 CONC tlers proud of their farms and forests. The dangers of aggression were mo 1 CONC re threatiening from the savage beasts than from the savage Indians for t 1 CONC he simple reason that the rugged country of the Alleghenies was not to t 1 CONC he liking of the Indians; in fact, there was only one Indian settlement fo 1 CONC und in the whole county. Accordingly travel over the mountains and throu 1 CONC gh the vast forests was quite free from attacks of indians even in the ear 1 CONC ly years of settlement. 1 CONT 0 @I0065@ INDI 1 NAME Michael /Byrne/ 1 SEX M 1 BIRT 2 DATE 29 SEP 1869 1 FAMC @F0039@ 0 @I0066@ INDI 1 NAME Thomas /Byrne/ 2 SOUR @S01800@ 2 SOUR @S01765@ 2 SOUR @S01794@ 2 SOUR @S01795@ 1 SEX M 1 BIRT 2 DATE 1770 2 PLAC St. Mary's Lane, Dublin, Ireland 1 DEAT 2 DATE SEP 1832 2 PLAC Susquehannah Twp., Cambria, Pa 1 FAMS @F0192@ 1 FAMS @F0010@ 1 FAMC @F0104@ 1 NOTE @NI0066@ 0 @NI0066@ NOTE 1 CONC From Founding Families of Loretto by Edmund J.

Also we know tha t Margaret had a boarding hou 1 CONC se by 1837. Quite possibly she ran this boarding house long befo re this t 1 CONC ime and the census reflect boarders and no children. I have looked in t 1 CONC he baptisms o f the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary and found no McG 1 CONC uires married or born in the righ t time frame to be children of Michael a 1 CONC nd Margaret.

The 1 CONT > Byrne family came originally from Ireland, and were among the early 1 CONT > pioneer settlers of Cambria County.

He emigrated to America in 1795, bringing with him his three 1 CONT > sons and five daughters, his wife having died in Ireland. He located 1 CONT > near Loretto, on what is now known as the Flick farm, and engaged in 1 CONT > farming. He was one of the very early settlers of this county, 1 CONT > locating here previous to Father Gallitzin, who was a pioneer in 1 CONT > Cambria county. His children were: Henry, John, Thomas, Mrs. McGuire, 1 CONT > Mrs. Levi, and Mrs. Platt. Thomas Byrne (grandfather) was born in 1 CONT > Ireland, and, when a boy came with his father to America. He assisted 1 CONT > his father on the farm until he reached mature years, when he located 1 CONT > on a farm in Carroll Township, where he followed the pursuits of a 1 CONT > farmer all his life. He died in 1832. He married Miss Burgoon, and 1 CONT > this marriage resulted in the birth of thirteen children: Bernard, 1 CONT > Michael, Augustine, Catherine, Little, Henry, James, Nancy Buck, 1 CONT > Elizabeth, John, Thomas, Frances and Mary Ann.They were a family of 1 CONT > farmers, and are now all deceased but Frances, who resides at 1 CONT > Carrolltown, this county. Augustine Byrne (father) was born in Carroll 1 CONT > Township, April 18, 1807, and died near Chest Springs, Allegheny 1 CONT > Township, May 8, 1864. He lived in Allegheny Township all his life 1 CONT > except during a short period spent in Washington Township. He was a 1 CONT > farmer and a member of the Roman Catholic church. He married Miss Ann, 1 CONT > a daughter of Charles Driskle, of Allegheny Township, and to them were 1 CONT > born eight children: Michael, of Allegheny Township; Alice, deceased, 1 CONT > who was the wife of James Adams, now deceased; Thomas J.; Mary 1 CONT > deceased, was the wife of L.

Byrne was reared a farmer boy, and educated in the common 1 CONT > and subscription schools of his township. When he began life on his 1 CONT > own account, he was employed on the old Portage railroad and remained 1 CONT > there two years, and then for the next ten years engaged in the shuck 1 CONT > business. In 1865 he purchased the farm on which he now resides, 1 CONT > located in the eastern part of Clearfield Township, this county, 1 CONT > containing one hundred and eight acres, underlaid with coal. At the 1 CONT > time of the purchase the farm was only partially improved, and he has 1 CONT > since cleared and improved the entire farm, and it is now in a good 1 CONT > state of cultivation and is one of the most desirable farms in Cambria 1 CONT > County. In religion he belongs to the church of his forefathers, the 1 CONT > Roman Catholic Church, of which he is a devout member.

The numbers for 1820 show that the t 1 CONC wo males have probably died. The girls however were born between 1804-18 1 CONC 10 and 1794-1804. This fits with the 1810 dates. By 1830 there is a you 1 CONC ng family living with Michael and Margaret. The dates do not seem to wo 1 CONC rk for anyone. Both Michael and Margaret seem too young. Also we know th 1 CONC at Margaret had a boarding house by 1837. Quite possibly she ran this boar 1 CONC ding house long before this time and the census reflect boarders and no ch 1 CONC ildren. I have looked in the baptisms of the Assumption of the Blessed Vir 1 CONC gin Mary and found no McGuires married or born in the right time fra 1 CONC me to be children of Michael and Margaret. Neither could I find Micha 1 CONC el or Margaret sponsoring any children in this time frame. There were oth 1 CONC er churches in the area and perhaps Michael and Margaret actually attend 1 CONC ed a congregation who shared the cemetery of the Assumption church. All t 1 CONC he surviving church records need to be checked carefully. The cemetery l 1 CONC ot at Basilica of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary on Mulberry a 1 CONC nd Catherdral Sts. might show who was buried near Michael and Margaret a 1 CONC nd give leads to possible children. Also the city directories might show w 1 CONC ho was living at 58 Holiday in 1847. This person might have been the he 1 CONC ir of Margaret. Using this name in the deeds might turn up some useful inf 1 CONC ormation. 1 CONT 1 CONT This shows that there are still a few gaps in the history of Michael Josep 1 CONC h, however there are no doubts that this is the son of Capt.

According to the Vignos work, John Jr is buried at St. Simon a 1 CONC nd St. Jude Church Cemetery, Blairsville, Derry Township, Westmoreland Cou 1 CONC nty Pennsylvania. No tombstone or record could be found. 1 CONT John Platt's will was written April 29, 1871 and proved April 2, 187 1 CONC 2.

The o 1 CONC ne directly behind the house was a woodshop, 20’ by 30' and was us 1 CONC ed by my grandfather to build nativity stables and other things like la 1 CONC wn furniture and any pieces for the house that needed replaced. Inside w 1 CONC as quite a collection of tools, a table saw, and motors with sandpaper dis 1 CONC cs, a bench and a big black woodstove. 1 CONT 1 CONT The bench was under a window and in front of the window were shelves of wo 1 CONC od to hold tools. As you entered, the wall on the left behind the stove w 1 CONC as all shelves. The shelves had many containers of all sizes containing ru 1 CONC sting but fascinating collections of miscellaneous hardware. The place alw 1 CONC ays smelled of fresh sawn wood, it was in this shed that my grandfather ta 1 CONC ught me to use a wood saw. I’ll never forget him telling me to "let the s 1 CONC aw do the work." 1 CONT 1 CONT On the right as you entered, almost behind the door was a ladder that l 1 CONC ed to a low attic. When I could, I'd sneak up the ladder; scrounge arou 1 CONC nd looking for who knows what. Once in the attic I found a round can wi 1 CONC th a lid, in the can were old campaign buttons and medals. I skinned a sil 1 CONC ver mink one time in this shed. While driving around I had seen this mi 1 CONC nk that had been hit by a car. It was dragging its back legs around so I c 1 CONC hased it and killed it with a shovel. It stunk up the whole shop up, b 1 CONC ut I skinned it and tacked it to a piece of plasterboard. Later on I se 1 CONC nt it to a company to be tanned. The shanty behind this one was torn dow 1 CONC n, it had been a huge (to my young eyes) black barn type building, seeming 1 CONC ly filled with sawdust and piles and piles of dowels, and I wasn't allow 1 CONC ed to play in it. 1 CONT 1 CONT Beside the woodshop my grandmother had a garden where she grew nothing b 1 CONC ut irises. Beside the garden, leading from the back door of the house w 1 CONC as a cement path that led up between two huge pine trees to a stairway cov 1 CONC ered by a rose laden trellis. On was post was a wren house and another w 1 CONC as on a clothesline post in the backyard. 1 CONT 1 CONT In front of the one pine tree to the right of the path were three piec 1 CONC es of white wooden lawn furniture made by my grandfather. One time my frie 1 CONC nds and I had a BB gun, my grandmother showed us what a sharpshooter she w 1 CONC as. Standing about twenty yards from the lawn furniture, she aimed for a 1 CONC nd hit the center of the center piece of one lawn chair; she could shoot b 1 CONC etter than any of us. The cement path also led down around the side of t 1 CONC he house to the street. Large hedges bordered the front of the yard; the 1 CONC re was a birdbath and two pink flamingos under a maple tree. Once I caug 1 CONC ht a dozen or so inch long catfish and kept them in the birdbath, I was co 1 CONC nfused as I kept going to look and I would have fewer and fewer catfish. B 1 CONC irds were coming down and gobbling them up. 1 CONT 1 CONT There was an oval shaped garden of flowers in the center of the front port 1 CONC ion of the yard, all the small gardens were bordered by bricks set into t 1 CONC he ground at angles on end and painted white. Three or four wooden stai 1 CONC rs led up to the porch. The porch was covered and had a railing of wood 1 CONC en lathe-work balusters. On the out side of the railing were three flowerb 1 CONC oxes, within which my grandmother grew petunias of white, pink, and red. T 1 CONC he far end of the porch had a trellis with a vine that covered the whole e 1 CONC nd of the porch. When I was real young I used sit on my granddads lap a 1 CONC nd he'd ask to see what I had in my pockets. He used to sing this song: "E 1 CONC dward the first died of thirst, Edward the second went to heaven……." Th 1 CONC en he would hum a little bit more of the tune. 1 CONT 1 CONT Sometimes, on hot summer nights I'd be allowed to sleep out on the porch g 1 CONC lider. Once I remember being so sunburned I could hardly move and I g 1 CONC ot to sleep on the porch. I enjoyed sitting on that porch with my grandpar 1 CONC ents on many summer evenings, from twilight to way past dark, listeni 1 CONC ng to a small transistor radio and eating chocolate ice cream. 1 CONT 1 CONT Behind the pine trees and bordering the back of the yard was a wall of lil 1 CONC acs, these were broken only by the stairs with the rose "tunnel". The stai 1 CONC rs led to what was called the "alley". The alley was a flat piece of grou 1 CONC nd that ran along behind the lilacs. Garbage used to be burnt here. To t 1 CONC he left and up the hill from the alley were two storage sheds, the lawn fu 1 CONC rniture and other things were kept in these for winter storage. 1 CONT 1 CONT My friends and I built a fort in a group of trees behind these sheds a 1 CONC nd at the top of one of those trees, if it is still there, are my initial 1 CONC s. The wood was weathered barn wood my grandfather got it for me. To the r 1 CONC ight of these sheds was a field that ran some way up the hill, this us 1 CONC ed to be a garden. This was bordered by a creek that ran down the hi 1 CONC ll in the spring on one side and an overgrown ditch of rocks on the othe 1 CONC r. Near the right side and about halfway up were black cherry trees a 1 CONC nd a pear tree a bit beyond the cherry. 1 CONT 1 CONT Up above this old garden area was a boney dump, a hill of slag from a min 1 CONC e. The shaft of the mine is almost grown over, has water in it and is to t 1 CONC he left and a little higher than the boney dump. Around this boney were bl 1 CONC ack raspberries, we used to pick bags full and ha7e them with milk and sug 1 CONC ar. My friends and I used to camp on the top of this boney pile. One ti 1 CONC me we raided a garden of Mr. Glydora and mad a stew of onions, potatoes a 1 CONC nd corn. 1 CONT Another time we buried a snake in a tobacco can at the top of this hill, e 1 CONC xpecting to come back in a year and finding a skeleton. I don’t remember f 1 CONC inding any. 1 CONT 1 CONT The summers I spent in Byrnesville seemed to last forever, to a boy of t 1 CONC en or eleven, two or three months was forever. The first time I met Jack Y 1 CONC urcision we had been preparing for a hike in the hills. I had pop in my ca 1 CONC nteen and Jack surely thought, "who is this city slicker sissy with the p 1 CONC op in his canteen?” As time went on though and boys prove their brave 1 CONC ry to each other in a number of ways, Jack and I became good friends. We d 1 CONC id a lot of exploring in those days; one of my favorite places was up ne 1 CONC ar where Jack's family had their farm. From Byrnesville it was across t 1 CONC he valley and up in the hills, the area was a mixture of dirt roads, wood 1 CONC s, streams, abandoned mines and farms. 1 CONT 1 CONT Frog hunting in the ponds formed by water filled mines was one of our favo 1 CONC rite and most important pastimes. There were stories of all kinds of fro 1 CONC gs up at these mine ponds. There were frogs of every color in those str 1 CONC ip mine ponds; blue, green and black, red and solid white. There were yell 1 CONC ow and green tree frogs too. There was always the chance of finding bla 1 CONC ck salamander with scarlet bellies. I myself was always after the fabled w 1 CONC hite frogs. I never did see any but we would go and turn every rock and pi 1 CONC ece of wood over in hopes of any frog. 1 CONT 1 CONT These mine ponds were scary places, most were "bottomless". As I remembe 1 CONC r, one had a dead horse in it, we could see its head below the water, a 1 CONC nd many had burlap sacks that supposedly contained unwanted kittens. One s 1 CONC tream was named the "Monkey Drifts" and as the story goes, is the place th 1 CONC at someone threw a dead pet monkey. We were always warned to stay away fr 1 CONC om these ponds but we would hunt them for frogs and fish them for the gia 1 CONC nt catfish that lived there. At many of these ponds you could cast out wi 1 CONC th a sinker and let your whole line out and never touch bottom. 1 CONT 1 CONT One time after more hours of hunting and exploring than we thought; we hea 1 CONC rd a car horn beeping and beeping in the distance. We headed toward the no 1 CONC ise which was the only thing to be heard except for 1 CONT birds and frogs. There was my granddad beeping the horn on his '55 Chev 1 CONC y, we had been gone about six hours and it was dark by the time Granddad d 1 CONC rove us home. My grandfather wasn't too mad at me, I think he was hap 1 CONC py he found use We were warned about those mine ponds again and remember 1 CONC ed the warning while there the next day. 1 CONT 1 CONT We used to camp out up at Jack's family farm, sometimes we would take a te 1 CONC nt and other times we would sleep in the open near haystacks, using th 1 CONC em as shelter. One night we had to go for water, in the dark about a ha 1 CONC lf a mile from our campsite. Pete and Tony Bartzac were with us. We h 1 CONC ad a transistor radio and a flashlight; we used to listen to KDKA Pittsbur 1 CONC gh. About half-way to the well the flashlight and radio batteries start 1 CONC ed to go and the darkness closed in. We kept each other going with encoura 1 CONC ging words like "What's wrong chicken... you scared?” We had just ma 1 CONC de it to the well when we noticed a big black shape moving nearby a fenc 1 CONC e. Although none of us admitted it, I was scared to death, I probably glow 1 CONC ed white I was so scared. Jack said quickly and more I think to assure him 1 CONC self that it was a cow and it was. 1 CONT 1 CONT Another night we spent in an abandoned barn, in the loft in some hay. We o 1 CONC nly did that once as we heard that big rats lived in that barn. There w 1 CONC as what was called a mill pond near that barn and we used to swim in it un 1 CONC til we found out it was polluted. It probably wasn't polluted but if we fo 1 CONC und anything dead in it then it was polluted to us. 1 CONT 1 CONT At times we would have rock fights along those mine roads, we would thr 1 CONC ow rocks at kids we didn't know and they would throw back. I was a hero on 1 CONC ce for hitting a kid in the side of the head with a rock. The kid was blee 1 CONC ding pretty much and I wasn't feeling like a hero at all, I was worried ab 1 CONC out getting in trouble with my folks. The kid was all right, thank Go 1 CONC d, a half inch lower and he might have lost his sight in one eye. 1 CONT 1 CONT One time Jack and I were walking along a road that followed a stream. A 1 CONC ll of a sudden Jack says "watch this". Jack picked up a rock, point 1 CONC ed to a bird on a branch hanging over the stream. Although the bird was ma 1 CONC ybe fifteen yards away, Jack took aim and hit that poor bird in the hea 1 CONC d, the bird dropped plop into the water and was carried down stream. Late 1 CONC r, Jack said that he had only planned on scaring the bird. 1 CONT 1 CONT My grandmother used to pack me cookies and stuff for my hikes and I wou 1 CONC ld always share with Jack. One day while walking along a road I was taki 1 CONC ng my time (on purpose) getting some cookies out of my knapsack and wh 1 CONC en I finally had them out, Jack turned to me and said, "Don't tell me y 1 CONC ou finally got those f--kers out of the sack? For some reason I thought th 1 CONC at was the funniest thing I ever heard and laughed for about an hour. 1 CONT 1 CONT I caught two snakes at once under a board by the boney. One 1 CONT I know for sure was a DeKays snake and the other was what we thought at t 1 CONC he time to be a baby Diamond-Back Rattler. In a tent one time with Tom Mar 1 CONC shall and his sister and a couple of other guys, we played strip poker. Ag 1 CONC ain on top of the hill. I remember everyone was 1 CONT down to their underwear except me, I was dealing and cheating if I rememb 1 CONC er right. 1 CONT 1 CONT Up past the boney was an old orchard, it was overgrown and the apples were 1 CONC n’t any good for eating. We used to have apple wars, throwing apples at ea 1 CONC ch other. Those little green ones used to hurt. Up past the old orchard w 1 CONC as a field of pine trees planted pretty much in rows. Up even farther th 1 CONC an this was a steep field. We used to have a lot of fun sliding down th 1 CONC is field on scraps of cardboard. There was quite a view from this hi 1 CONC gh on the hill; we used to call it the “palm of God” because the surroundi 1 CONC ng hills together looked like a giant palm. It was always real quiet up th 1 CONC is high on the hill and the sound of the clocks and chimes of Barnesboro w 1 CONC ere literally as clear as a bell. We always knew what time it was, we us 1 CONC ed to bless ourselves at this time as was the custom. Throughout this fie 1 CONC ld too were huckleberry bushes, these too, if not eaten on the spot were g 1 CONC reat with milk and sugar. 1 CONT 1 CONT Up behind this field was a dense woods, once you were in the woods you cou 1 CONC ldn’t see back out so there was no “view”. Where the trees didn’t grow we 1 CONC re out croppings of rock. We used to swing on vines up in this woods and s 1 CONC care each other with stories of a “mad hermit” that ate kids. Coming ba 1 CONC ck down the hill was dangerous and a thrill in itself. The hill is so ste 1 CONC ep that you could come down the hill about eight times faster than going u 1 CONC p. We would end up falling five or six times on the way down. 1 CONT 1 CONT Next to my grandparents house was the “hotel” built by my great-g 1 CONC randfather Thomas J. Byrnes. At one time it had a tavern down below on t 1 CONC he ground floor, my great-grandfather used to tend the bar there. When I w 1 CONC as growing up the bar was gone and the building was owned by people nam 1 CONC ed Yingling. My good friend Tom Marshall lived in the “hotel” which had be 1 CONC en converted to apartments. 1 CONT Behind the hotel was a huge tall oak tree we used to spend hours in its br 1 CONC anches being kids. We would go way to the top, being sky pilots swaying wi 1 CONC th the wind on thin branches. Tom broke his arm once, flying to 1 CONT the ground. Across from the Byrnes Hotel was another garden, this one gro 1 CONC wn by my grandfather. Wait I have to say more of the hotel. 1 CONT 1 CONT We used to get yelled at for running up the steps of the hotel th 1 CONC at used to knock dirt on the people sitting on the porch below. By the ti 1 CONC me I was growing up, the top floors of the hotel were condemned for bei 1 CONC ng unsafe. 1 CONT 1 CONT The garden my grandfather had, as I said was across the road fr 1 CONC om the hotel. It used to be mostly corn with a lot of other vegetables. T 1 CONC he garden was manicured with grass paths and sweet peas growing on the fen 1 CONC ces. We used to try rhubarb with salt, I never liked it. Down 1 CONT at the bottom of the garden was a well, a surfaced underground spring. Wat 1 CONC er for the garden came from this spring. I caught a small salamander at th 1 CONC is spring one time, it was black with a scarlet belly. 1 CONT 1 CONT We used to run through and hide in the rows of corn, at dinner my uncles u 1 CONC sed to bet me they could eat more corn than I. Down along the road from t 1 CONC he garden, on the same side of the street as the hotel was a small stor 1 CONC e. Byrnes’s Store run by "Bunny" Byrnes. I always had money for pop, can 1 CONC dy and potato chips. I used to by a lot of clear "Birch Beer". There we 1 CONC re also many elderberry bushes, up behind the alley. One time we used t 1 CONC he juice to cover our skin and played Indians. Down below my granddad’s ga 1 CONC rden were railroad tracks that followed a creek all the way into Barnesbo 1 CONC ro We used to walk those tracks to go to the movie or to get pizza at 10 c 1 CONC ents a slice. We used to put pennies, nails and glass on the rails and wa 1 CONC it for the train to come to flatten them out. The nails would look like sm 1 CONC all swords. We used to catch crayfish in the creek and pop "Touch-me-nots 1 CONC ". We made a partial dam on the creek once and tried floating around in t 1 CONC he higher water on homemade rafts. 1 CONT 1 CONT 1 CONT 0 @I0100@ INDI 1 NAME Janet Elizabeth /Panetta/ 2 SOUR @S23616@ 1 SEX F 1 BIRT 2 DATE 6 FEB 1952 2 PLAC Hamtramack, MI 1 BIRT 2 DATE 6 FEB 1952 2 PLAC Detroit, Michigan 1 FAMS @F0211@ 1 FAMS @F0195@ 1 FAMC @F0212@ 0 @I0101@ INDI 1 NAME Delphine M.

The former was a native of Scotlan 1 CONC d, and landed at Quebec, Canada, and walked thence to Philadelphia, by w 1 CONC ay of Pittsburgh. He died in 1859, at the age of seventy-six; his wife di 1 CONC ed in Philadelphia in 1832. Our subject's connection with the P. R. R. dat 1 CONC es from September 26, 1853, when he was employed as a machinist and locomo 1 CONC tive engineer. He ran a freight train between Pittsburgh and Altoona, a 1 CONC nd on coming west, about three o'clock on the morning of the 17th of Febru 1 CONC ary, 1854, he ran into the east freight at Blairsville intersection, and h 1 CONC as his left arm broken at the elbow joint and right wrist dislocated. In S 1 CONC eptember, 1854, he came to Blairsville to run the engine "Henry Clay" fr 1 CONC om Blairsville to the intersection till the completion of the Indiana Bran 1 CONC ch railroad. He ran the first engine, the Henry Clay, in the I. B. R. R. T 1 CONC he second engine on the I. B. R. R. was the "United States," used by the C 1 CONC ollins Brothers to haul iron, etc. When trains began to run regularl 1 CONC y, he ran the first train with the "Chestnut Ridge;" he afterward used t 1 CONC he "Crawford No. 23," in 1859. In March, 1861, he ran the first train on t 1 CONC he Ebensburg and Cresson Branch Railroad, with engine No. 22. In 186 1 CONC 5, he was employed by Peter Collins to put up engines and derricks for dri 1 CONC lling for oil near Loretto, Cambria county, at what was called the "Daws 1 CONC on well." In May, 1866, he was employed by the Allegheny Valley Railro 1 CONC ad as machinist and locomotive engineer. In 1870, he engaged in farming, a 1 CONC nd in 1871, was employed as machinist in the shops of the W. P. R. R. at B 1 CONC lairsville. Our subject was married in 1847 to Agnes, a daughter of John P 1 CONC latt, who was born in Adams county, in 1784, and died in Westmoreland coun 1 CONC ty in 1871. He was the son of John and Elizabeth Platt nee Leutze, who ca 1 CONC me from Rockbridge county, Virginia, to Adams county, and thence, in 180 1 CONC 1, to Cambria county. He was a soldier in the Revolution. He died at the a 1 CONC ge of one Hundred and four years, in Cambria county, about three miles fr 1 CONC om Cherry Tree. Our subject's farm in Derry township, Westmoreland count 1 CONC y, has the application warrant, dated April 3, 1769, and in the name of Wi 1 CONC lliam Dixon. The latter transferred the property to John Barnett, who so 1 CONC ld to John Platt, the father of Mrs. Warnock. 1 CONT 1 CONT 1 CONT 1 CONT My first thought was to get off the floor, second thought was that John, T 1 CONC he Revolutioner and his father (always guessed to be named Henry) were com 1 CONC bined in these last few sentences.

Perhaps Rachel McGuire made these entries?? 1 CONT 2) The hand which entered Richard on page 6 may have been the same who ent 1 CONC ered Rachel’s death on page 4. The Rs and Ms for the entry for Rachel’s de 1 CONC ath are very similar; however the 8s are very different. The As a 1 CONC nd Gs do not match the entries for pages 4 and 5, so entries were not by t 1 CONC hat person. Perhaps one of the girls made these entries??? 1 CONT 3) A different person did Luke and Margaret (page 3). The H on Henry (pa 1 CONC ge 5) and O’Hara (page 3) are definitely different. So are the Ms on McGui 1 CONC re. Margaret or Luke perhaps made entries?? 1 CONT 4) Then a different person did Luke and Martha. The M in McGuire is very m 1 CONC uch like the M on page 3, but the G in McGuire is very different. The As a 1 CONC re similar. Born is written with a capital letter on page 3 and a small le 1 CONC tter on page 2. The death entries for Richard and Eleanor match the handwr 1 CONC iting on page 2. The death entries at bottom of page 3 match handwriti 1 CONC ng of births of Luke and Martha’s children. However the handwriting loo 1 CONC ks like an older person. This is probably Luke. He writes MarthaÂ’s name v 1 CONC ery similar in marriage record and in death record. 1 CONT 5)Then a different person did Mark and Jane. The marriage entry looks simi 1 CONC lar to the writing on page 2. The births are in a different hand. The dea 1 CONC th entries on page 5 match the handwriting in the births on page 2. Ja 1 CONC ne or Mark perhaps made these entries??? 1 CONT 1 CONT It would appear that the bible passed from Rachel McGuire to son, Luke, w 1 CONC ho passed it to his son, Luke, and then on the Mark.

Mike McGuire w 1 CONC as truly a 1 CONT frontiersman, a goodsized, strong man who would go on fishing and hunti 1 CONC ng trips, wandering 1 CONT into the hills of Pennsylvania on the Fourth Ridge of the Allegheny Mounta 1 CONC ins. He walked to 1 CONT Conewago, the first Catholic settlement in Pennsylvania, stopped fir 1 CONC st in Petersburg, near 1 CONT Huntingdon, and from there he explored the Allegheny mountains. He to 1 CONC ok a trail from there 1 CONT called the Kittanning Trail, an Indian pathway, up the mountain, which w 1 CONC as a wilderness, and 1 CONT was the first white man to make it to the top of the mountain. The only pe 1 CONC ople he met were 1 CONT Indians. He traded with them as he hunted and fished. He built a hunting c 1 CONC abin not far from the 1 CONT Kittanning Path in this northeastern section and was the first white m 1 CONC an to settle in what is 1 CONT now known as Cambria County, in 1768. About that time, the Land Offi 1 CONC ce in Washington allowed 1 CONT that anyone who wished to could buy land in the wilderness for $5.00 an ac 1 CONC re, so Mike acquired 1 CONT one hundred acres, built a log cabin, and called it McGuire’s Camp. 1 CONT Michael McGuire later served in the Revolutionary War, rising to the ra 1 CONC nk of Captain, and 1 CONT was there after known as Captain Mike McGuire. In 1788, following his serv 1 CONC ice and to escape the 1 CONT constant clashes on the Pennsylvania-Maryland border, he bought several hu 1 CONC ndred acres of land 1 CONT about a mile east of the present borough of Loretto, and brought his fami 1 CONC ly from Baltimore: his 1 CONT wife Rachael Brown, two grown sons, Richard and Luke, a younger son, and f 1 CONC our grown daughters. 1 CONT Since much of the terrain was a mere footpath, too narrow for wagon and te 1 CONC am, this was a 1 CONT laborious 130 mile trip on horseback, with family, supplies, and househo 1 CONC ld possessions. Richard 1 CONT and Luke were athletic, like their father, and at once started to help bui 1 CONC ld a bigger log house 1 CONT for the family down the hill from the old one. So many began building arou 1 CONC nd them that they 1 CONT started calling it “McGuire’s Settlement” and called Captain Michael a 1 CONC nd his sons the “big 1 CONT McGuires.” Eventually the sons built their own homes and were marrie 1 CONT In the course of a few years, several families, relatives of C 1 CONC aptain McGuire, 1 CONT located in the neighborhood, including Lucinda McGuire’s family. Capta 1 CONC in Mike died on 1 CONT November 17, 1793 at age 73, and his sons continued to improve the wildern 1 CONC ess. Mr. Robert 1 CONT Johnson, an early Cambria historian, wrote that Captain Michael was “the f 1 CONC irst white man, who 1 CONT settled practically beyond any dispute within the present bounds of Cambr 1 CONC ia County, today known 1 CONT as Loretto, Pennsylvania.” Gertrude McGuire Billetdeoux relates that “.. 1 CONC .while my [McGuire] 1 CONT ancestors really did start and discover the Western side of the Alleghe 1 CONC ny Mountains, people 1 CONT continued to come from far and near to McGuire’s Settlement. The crafts th 1 CONC ey knew gave work to 1 CONT the settlers, so the population grew by leaps and bounds 1 CONT In 1789, one year after Captain McGuire brought his family to Ca 1 CONC mbria County, in 1 CONT 1789, the Gailbraith Road, located several miles away, was opened over t 1 CONC he Allegheny mountains, 1 CONT providing travel by wagon for the westward bound settlers. During this y 1 CONC ear, more families 1 CONT emigrated to this vicinity. By the following year, priests from eastern P 1 CONC ennsylvania 1 CONT periodically visited this isolated and predominately Roman Catholic settle 1 CONC ment on horseback, 1 CONT conducting services in the settler’s log cabin homes as there were no Cath 1 CONC olic churches in the 1 CONT rural areas. 1 CONT In 1796, Mrs. Luke McGuire (former Margaret O’Hara), only 20 yea 1 CONC rs old, and a 1 CONT companion took a long and dangerous journey on horseback to Conewago, ne 1 CONC ar the Maryland 1 CONT border, to see if a priest would come to minister to Mrs. John Burgoo 1 CONC n, a Protestant who was 1 CONT very sick and begged hard and repeatedly to see a priest. She met a pri 1 CONC est, Father Demetrius 1 CONT Augustine Gallitzin, who rode his horse up through the wilderness to t 1 CONC he settlement to 1 CONT minister to Mrs. Burgoon. Mrs. Burgoon became well; she lived to be conver 1 CONC ted and remained 1 CONT faithful until her death (2)(4). 1 CONT Father Gallitzin had been a young Russian prince who was se 1 CONC nt to the United States in 1 CONT 1792 to go to school. He decided to be a priest, renounced his wealth, w 1 CONC as ordained in 1795, 1 CONT and never returned to Russia. This religious man first exercised his ho 1 CONC ly life in the 1 CONT settlement of Conewago. As laboring in this part of the country became ve 1 CONC ry monotonous, he 1 CONT chose to concentrate his energies on a single locality - the wild, inhospi 1 CONC table region of the 1 CONT Alleghenies. To build a spiritual empire here was the vision which dazzl 1 CONC ed before his mind. It 1 CONT was while coming to these mountains with his followers that the “Gallitz 1 CONC in Spring” had its 1 CONT beginning. 1 CONT Farther Gallitzin was quite taken with the people of the McGui 1 CONC re settlement and 1 CONT decided to stay around after he found there was no Catholic church betwe 1 CONC en Lancaster, 1 CONT Pennsylvania and St. Louis, Missouri. While his mission extended from Hunt 1 CONC ingdon to Greensburg, 1 CONT Father Gallitzin spent most of his time in the development of his favori 1 CONC te colony, the McGuire 1 CONT settlement. He offered the first Mass at McGuire Settlement in Luke McGui 1 CONC re’s log house.(8) 1 CONT Father Gallitzin returned to Baltimore and asked permission fr 1 CONC om Bishop Carroll to 1 CONT stay at McGuire’s Settlement, with the view of forming a settlement for t 1 CONC he benefit of 1 CONT Catholics as most of whom where too poor to purchase land in the lower cou 1 CONC ntries, but it was 1 CONT four years before he could go back and build his church. In 1799, wi 1 CONC th a gift of forty acres 1 CONT of land from Captain McGuire, Father Gallitzin obtained permission to retu 1 CONC rn and establish a 1 CONT church to provide for the spiritual needs of the Allegheny region settler 1 CONC s. In October, 1 CONT bringing only basic altar furnishings and his meager possessions, Father G 1 CONC allitzin (known then 1 CONT as Father Smith) made the trip to the settlement by Conestoga wagon. Wi 1 CONC th the help of 1 CONT parishioners, who were scattered on farms through the forest, a rough-he 1 CONC wn log chapel was 1 CONT constructed that fall. His mother in Russia sent him money and anythi 1 CONC ng he wanted, but he gave 1 CONT it all to the poor people who were trying to get started. There were a l 1 CONC ot of McGuires there 1 CONT by that time and they were very poor. The church was small and he had to b 1 CONC uild a larger one 1 CONT soon after. Later a school for children was establishe 1 CONT A town was needed to meet the expanding needs of the parishioner 1 CONC s, so he laid out the 1 CONT village in 1815 on land he had acquired, naming the settlement “Loretto” f 1 CONC or the Italian 1 CONT coastal town of Loretto that he was very fond of, the location of a famo 1 CONC us shrine, and named 1 CONT streets for Catholic saints.(7) From here, Father Gallitzin devoted h 1 CONC is life to the 1 CONT spiritual needs of his parishioners in many widely scattered locations th 1 CONC at are now established 1 CONT communities, one of which, Gallitzin, is named after him, as is the townsh 1 CONC ip in which the town 1 CONT is situated, immediately to the west of Allegheny township, in which the b 1 CONC orough of Loretto 1 CONT lies. The Hurds were married and baptized their children in St. Michael 1 CONC ’s church in Loretto. 1 CONT Many of his parishioners, including the Hurds, named their children aft 1 CONC er Father Gallitzin. 1 CONT William and Lucinda named one of their sons Demetrius Hurd and another Syl 1 CONC vester Gallitzin Hurd 1 CONT in honor of this priest, who died in 1840. 1 CONT Growth of the village of Loretto continued with the locati 1 CONC on of other religious 1 CONT establishments one of which is the present St. Francis College, found 1 CONC ed by the Franciscans. 1 CONT In 1897, Charles Michael Schwab, a former major figure in t 1 CONC he Pittsburgh steel 1 CONT industry who had grown up in Loretto, decided to give Loretto a gift wi 1 CONC th some of his fortune 1 CONT by replacing the second log church that Father Gallitzin had built to repl 1 CONC ace his small chapel. 1 CONT There were some carpenters in the McGuire family and they, including Edwa 1 CONC rd Augustine McGuire, 1 CONT great-great-grandson of Captain Mike, helped build the new church. Ed McG 1 CONC uire and Sushi Little 1 CONT were the first to get married in the new church of St. Michael’s in Loret 1 CONC to.(8) 1 CONT Charles Schwab added to the prosperity of the town when he cr 1 CONC eated an extensive 1 CONT real estate for a period of time, including an elaborate mansion in 191 1 CONC 6, now being used by the 1 CONT priests of the basilica and the college. The borough of Loretto was incor 1 CONC porated in 1845. 1 CONT In 1996, Rome designated the cathedral of St. Michael’s a minor basilic 1 CONC a, St. Michael the 1 CONT Archangel Basilica, one of fifty in the United States. 1 CONT While the Hurds lived in the area, a tunnel was bored for the f 1 CONC irst time through 1 CONT nearby through Adirondacks for the railroad. In 1848-1849, The Pennsylvan 1 CONC ia Railroad laid out 1 CONT and adapted the Sugar Gap Route, which was the beginning of Industrial dev 1 CONC elopment at the top 1 CONT of the Alleghenies. The “Old Portage Railroad” was in operation for twen 1 CONC ty years when it was 1 CONT given up for the “New Portage Railroad, “which was built in 1853-1854. T 1 CONC he first scheduled 1 CONT train, carrying the railroad officials, passed through from Pittsbur 1 CONC gh to Philadelphia on 1 CONT February 14, 1854. Mr. Lenahan laid the keystone for the first tunne 1 CONT In 1850, at a cost of one half million dollars, the E. Rutter & So 1 CONC ns firm was hired to 1 CONT do the job. Using picks and shovels it took over three hundred men to com 1 CONC plete the first 1 CONT tunnel, known as the Portage Tunnel situated under Tunnel Hill. The Hur 1 CONC ds ran a boardinghouse 1 CONT for the tunnel workers there, keeping the table set 24 hours a day for t 1 CONC he shifts of workers; 1 CONT part of the boarding house was a store they ran, with supplies like cloth 1 CONC es for the tunnel 1 CONT workers and coal miners.(3) The second tunnel, which is the first of t 1 CONC he “Twin Tunnels,” is 1 CONT known as the Allegheny Tunnel and was finished in 1854. Some workers to 1 CONC ok Lucinda through the 1 CONT tunnel, making her the first woman through the tunnel (3). The first of t 1 CONC he “Twin Tunnels” 1 CONT completed the railroad west, after passing around the horseshoe curve. Th 1 CONC is factor made the 1 CONT tunnels so important that they were guarded by the Pennsylvania Railroad P 1 CONC olice during the war 1 CONT years. 1 CONT The village that grew up to serve the tunnel workers and mine 1 CONC rs was formerly a 1 CONT settlement known as “Watt’s Town” because David Watt, presumably a trapp 1 CONC er from Maine, had 1 CONT such vast acres in a large tract of land secured from the government, like 1 CONC ly in recognition of 1 CONT great service in the Revolutionary War. Others soon followed him to fo 1 CONC rm a small settlement. 1 CONT The village was named Gallitzin after Father Gallitzin. A third tunnel, t 1 CONC he second of the Twin 1 CONT Tunnels and known as the Gallitzin Tunnel, was begun in 1902 and finish 1 CONC ed in 1904. 1 CONT These tunnels are the highest and longest tunnels on what was on 1 CONC ce the Pennsylvania 1 CONT Railroad. They are 3,605 feet long and at an elevation of 2, 167 feet. R 1 CONC ailroad buffs have 1 CONT identified the Gallitzin Tunnels a “must” stopover. It provided the visit 1 CONC or a glimpse of the 1 CONT fascinating railroad “past and present.” 1 CONT Beginning on June 20, 1994, through 1995, the Gallitzin Tunnel w 1 CONC as stripped of its 1 CONT tracks and the Allegheny Tunnel was made larger
