Subject: [PAGENWEB] QUESTIONS FOR PITTSBGH AREA
Date: Thu, 12 Jul 2007 14:29:55 -0400


I have my great x grandma Maria Britton Conrad 's diary from 1898 of her trip to Devon, England after a 56 yr absence.

She lived in Pittsbgh and mentions many friends in Pittsbgh before leaving and many Pittsburghers that she met after departing in London, Liverpool and Paris.

Is there a Pittsbgh list that I can mention these names so i can send them copies and find out who they were (probably some were well known as she was connected to Carnegie Steel)?

Her husband Adam Conrad was born in Germany and died in Pittsbgh but we can not find his papers. Where is best for me to look for census of Pittsbgh and death notices?

Where is best to look at newspapers of the time for articles on family and obituaries?

Thanks

Carole
