What a nice blog reader to do that important bit of research. I'm glad she/he found your post!
ReplyDeleteYeah for the reader!!! Thanks for sharing your good find.
ReplyDeleteThanks for reading and commenting. I am grateful for random acts of genealogical kindness. I'm due to pass it forward.
ReplyDeleteHow nice that someone was able to look this up for you-- I believe PA's records are not public, so you really can't find this online.
ReplyDeletePoor lady, she was so young, and to leave little kids...
This was found on microfilm at a Pittsburgh library. Yes, I've always thought how sad for my great grandmother and her brother to lose their mother when they were so young.
