and Alvirah was listed on Lydia's marriage license, but I was reluctant to put too much credibility on that fact, because it didn't necessarily indicate birth mother.
Thanks for checking back on that.
I'm really looking forward to meeting you this afternoon!

I looked at the question of Lydia Eliza's parentage, and concluded you're right. Cynthia's obit didn't list Lydia as a survivor of either of her marriages.

Yes, works for me. See you tomorrow.

You are welcome to drop by 1205 Deerfield. Would sometime between 1 and 3 work?
I have a vague memory of looking at the issue of Lydia's mother in the past, but I'm looking at it again. I have the same dates for birth of Lydia and death of Alvira.

My wife's gotta relieve them (Jude's parents) so by 09:00, I would think. I need a little time to acclimate the dogs, etc. Will be there all day, planning on dinner with Adam & Erica (said parents).

John, both messages came through fine. What time do you think you will be in State College?

[Having trouble getting this to Send. May resort to email.]
Yes. I drove up to Coudy today from Martinsburg (PA), driving back tonight, then I plan to be tomorrow in State College. I was wondering if I could drop by, or meet you some place, like a restaurant, for an hour or so. So much to compare and I've got some questions. I've specifically been looking at Lydia Eliza Vergason Mitchell's parentage.
You gave a wonderful description of your lineage in your introductory Potter/McKean Group post a couple days ago, including Cynthia Maria Strong (my 1st cousin 4x removed, Dingman line) as Lydia's mother.
It looks to me like her birth mother was actually Alvira Russell Vergason, if Lydia was born 20 Jan 1861. Alvira died 12 May 1865, after which Charles married Cynthia 15 April 1867. Of course, these dates, if correct, do not guarantee DNA... you know. Do you have any DNA info on this?
I've been trying to verify all of the dates, haven't gotten them all yet.
I also thought it would be a good chance to meet, but since my son and new grandson are in State College, it won't be the last opportunity.

Earlier this weekend, I joined this group and read with great interest the messages that have been posted.
My main maternal lines are the ancestors, descendants and in-laws of:
--Mahlon Mitchell Jr. (1806-1889) and Elizabeth Gilbert (1815-1877), my 2nd great grandparents.
She is a 6th generation Mayflower descendant of Edward Fuller.
This Mitchell family’s reunion started in 1923. (I am reunion president, because none of my cousins want the title.) The 2018 reunion is scheduled for July 21 at the Mitchell Pavilion at Coudersport Area Recreation Park. (The pavilion is named after an unrelated Mitchell. For many years the group met at Mitchell Park, also named after an unrelated Mitchell.)
Their son George Washington Mitchell (1844-1915) is my great grandfather.
--Charles L. Vergason (1833-1924) and his second wife Cynthia Maria Strong (1835-1915), my 2nd great grandparents. Their daughter Lydia Eliza is third wife of George Washington Mitchell and my great grandmother.
Today’s Mitchell reunion was originally the Mitchell-Vergason Reunion in 1923, and Charles attended. All branches of the family are welcome at our reunions.
--Charles W. Thompson (1868-1939) and Ada Dell Toles (1873-1963), my great grandparents. There are at least two different and apparently unrelated Toles lines in Potter Co. Both are in my tree.
My main paternal line is the Hamilton line, which came to Potter Co. from Monongalia Co., WV.
My father was Jake Hamilton (1918-1954).
Two of his brothers also settled in Potter Co.
-- Harry Kimble “Johnny” Hamilton (1914-1967) and
-- Marshall Hamilton (1924-1991).
The three brothers had 12 children in Potter Co., and most of them settled in the Coudersport area.
Two of my first cousins are
- Larry Kimble Hamilton (1944-1994) and
- Thomas Howard Hamilton (1947-2006).
My all-male Hamilton line descends from Henry Hamilton (1742-1828), who came to Monongalia Co., from Northern Ireland.
My Hamiltons also descend from the large Tennant and Haught families of Monongalia Co. in the 1700s.
My mother was Luella Mae Mitchell (1917-2010). Mom and Dad owned the Coudersport Service Station business (known as the Corner Store at the corner of Main and Chestnut) from about July 1950 to about June 1952. I have a few memories. Mom was a cashier at the Coudersport elementary school cafeteria for many years.
Other Potter Co. surnames in the tree include:
Ayers, Baker, Bennett, Clark, Clinton, Cornelius, Dingman, Foster, Gilbert, Hackett, Haskins, Hauber, King, Knowlton, Lattin, Matteson, Russell, Snyder, Tauscher (Teuscher), Toombs.

Gerry Hamilton I’m not sure if you’re related to Arron (Bernie) Haskins from Emporium/Austin area. I am his grand daughter. My dad is Leon (Butch) Haskins which lives in Eldred. Kind of fun to chat with those who may have known my relatives even if we aren’t related directly
