PHILLIPS - VAN HORN - PETSCH - ROCKWELL - MCKEAN Family Photograph
I have an old photograph of Emma VAN HORN who is also identified as Grandpa PHILLIPS’ sister. The photograph was likely taken in the 1890's or early 1900's with Emma appearing to be in her 40's or 50's at the time. I believe that this is a photograph of Emma PHILLIPS VAN HORN and based on limited research have gathered the following information regarding Emma and her family: Emma J. PHILLIPS was b. 27 Feb 1852 in Charleston, SC to parents John M. PHILLIPS (1823-1876) and Sarah PETSCH (1823-1876). Emma had two siblings, Julius A. PHILLIPS (1849-1924) and Julia Ladler PHILLIPS (1858-1914). Emma married Willis N. ROCKWELL (1853-1897) on 27 Feb 1878, and they had two children including Achsah or Ascha Beatrice ROCKWELL MCKEAN (1883-1964) and Jennie L. ROCKWELL (1886-1895). Emma was married a second time to Alfred Fremont VAN HORN (1855-1924) on 14 Jul 1909 in East Troy or Williamsport, PA. Emma died 14 Oct 1933 in West Burlington, PA and is buried in the Hilton Cemetery in Troy, PA. I would like to get the photograph to a family member and would appreciate you contacting me if you are a member of this family or know someone who might be. Thanks, Shelley

Thomas Kerwin/Kirwin/Kirwan
I'm looking for any information on Thomas Kerwin (Kirwan, Kirwin) and his wife, Anastasia Ryan. Both were born in County Tipperary, Ireland. Thomas in 1818 & Anastasia in 1828. Their daughter, Ellen, was born in 1853 in Towanda, Bradford County. I have found many Kerwins of multiple spellings in Towanda and think Thomas might be a sibling to one or more, just no proof. Thanks for any help! Joan

James H Wheeler Ridgebury
2
My name is Steve Hollands and I understand that James H Wheeler married Sally, widow of ??? Friends in Cortland County NY c. 1810, they had a son, Phillip H Wheeler b. c 1818 then moved to Ridgebury Bradford County PA in late 1830's (they are listed in 1840 census) then in the late 1840's they moved to Millerton Tioga County PA (listed in the 1850 and 1860 census) But Sally is no longer listed but instead Polly is listed as being with James. I am seeking assistance in learning who Polly was. And I am real interested in learning what happened to Sally because I understand that she was the mother of my 4th Great-Grandfather James Friends and I also understand that he grew up in that Wheeler household. I feel that Sally passed while in Ridgebury but have yet to find any death or burial records for her. Again any information in this would be most appreciated. Steve Hollands
