If you have Montour County information , why not contribute it to this page.   Don't worry if you don't know html, just type the information up and save it as a plain text file (.txt)...and remember to avoid using TABs.   It may make things look nice while you are typing them, but they don't transfer well or line up so nicely on the this end.    Send your file to:


It is a great way to help other researchers.  You may be placing one of their ancestors in a certain place at a certain time...or another researcher may be doing the same for you.
