The question piqued my interest. Attached is the obituary for L.R. Bliss. I wonder if his photo files still exist somewhere.

I believe there were Strongs in the Kinzua/Corydon area. I think they may be related to Colonel Strong Vincent who was a Union Army officer (I think Big Round Top) who performed heroically at Gettysburg. Colonel Strong Vincent was from Erie, PA. Please notice I said "may be related"....I haven't established a definite connection yet with the Kinzua/Corydon Strongs.

Jim,
Having not communicated right away, I see that I sent essentially this message to you twice today. Sorry. I didn’t think the first draft actually went, thinking it was the second…
I entered you and Marcia in my file, for reference, then started taking a closer look at our friend Charles Vergason, albeit the ‘born in 1833 Chas’. His wife, Cynthia Maria Strong, my 1st cousin 4x removed, married William Clarke McCann in 1855, before marrying Chas Vergason later in 1867. I have 4 McCann children for them.
This stood out, after seeing Marcia’s Match List below with McCann.
Interesting that McCann stands out, but it would be the same relationship today with any Vergason relatives, too, since Cynthia is the vital link, descended from Dingmans.

Just thought I’d share that, while I’m on it. I’ll dig a little deeper…

Hi Jim!
Sorry for not responding sooner, but I only came across your note this morning as I was doing some purging. [Sadly, email used to be my preferred communication while actively working, but anymore, a text message gets my immediate attention, while emails can get lost in the volume. I end up missing some important communications that way.]

This is really interesting; I’m impressed with your degree of knowledge and your approach.
I looked for the Keegan tree on Marcia’s contact, but only two trees are showing, Denham and Shelton.
My brother was conceived about 20 July 1951.
None of the matches you mention for Marcia are close matches for Mike (I mean, I don’t recognize any of the names) save one, chasvergason, who sticks out because I have a Charles Vergason in (a branch on) my tree, 1833-1924, in Sweden township, Potter County, Penna- one township over from where we grew up and where many of our Potter County relatives live(d)… like the ones Mike’s birthfather is descended from, John & Hannah TURNER DINGMAN, my 4th grgrandparents and the parents of my 4th great aunt, Margaret P. Dingman Strong, whose daughter Cynthia married Chas Vergason in 1867.

Chasvergason is a 3rd-4th cousin to Mike, 5th to 8th to me (descended from same DINGMAN line, complicating my quest a little, since, in addition to being half-brothers, we are also distantly related at this juncture as well.) I obviously need to bring more of the Vergason line to current! I’m sure there is a contemporary Charles Vergason named after his gr…grandpap.

So, Thank you! You’ve given me a little more to chew on and steered me back to this path. More recently, I’ve been downloading old photos from various area FB groups and doing the genealogy on them, to get a picture of the relationships of Potter County; I usually ultimately tie in somewhere, in this huge ‘picture puzzle.’
Let’s compare notes on Charles Vergason some time!

Again, I apologize for not getting back to you earlier. Thanks for your help!

Hi John, thank you for responding. It’s people like you, who are willing to work together, that makes this quest worthwhile.

First of all, let me tell you who I am, then on to Marcia.
I was born in Buffalo in 1944 (will be 74 next Tuesday), and adopted while in the hospital thru a family physician arrangement). Grew up in a happy family, married in 1968 (50 years next month), raised two daughters (living nearby), moved to Jacksonville, FL in 1994. I am a lifelong IT guy (still have a PC business), and I enjoy problem solving.
Started looking for birthparents in 2001, but hit it hard over the last three years. DNA submissions at Ancestry, Family Tree, and 23andme, and upload to MyHeritage. I use GEDmatch heavily, Genome Mate Pro (for chromo marching) and the Ancestry Worldwide Searching subscription . With very few close cousin matches to work with, I did a lot of research and constructed Ancestry trees with 4th and 5th cousins. I ended up with around 15 families in my tree and was only able to connect a few of them with the required marriages. Then in 2016, I got a maternal 1st cousin match on Ancestry which identified my mother. In 2017, my wife and I went on two cross-country motorhome trips to meet my eight new Serbian 1st cousins (my mother was the daughter of a Serbian priest). They all welcomed me into the family (and I looked like many of them).

Last May, I got a paternal 2nd cousin match on Ancestry, a 21-year-old in Orlando. It turns out that she is the grand-daughter of my half-brother who lives in DeLand, FL. I had lunch with him last month and we shared family photos. My birthfather and his family lived in Buffalo in 1940-1947, and apparently he sowed some wild oats.

So now, I am helping Marcia. I have analyzed her 2nd and 3rd cousins and their shared matches and found some groupings that I put into three Ancestry trees (now public). I originally made them private because I have done a lot of Ancestry mirroring over the years. Her Keegan tree would be of most interest to you. Based on her 2nd cousin matches with Jean Johns and Judith Schloegel, I believe that she descends from Frank O’Boyle of Belfast, NY. Frank’s parents were Peter O’Boyle and Anna Durnein (as best as I can tell), and Frank had three siblings (James, Catherine, and Rose) but I found other cousins descending from them.

I wrote up a few letters for Marcia to send to Jean Johns and her two daughters (Judith and Jennifer), asking for help, but I don’t know if Marcia sent them out yet.

I zeroed in on M.W. in Marcia’s cousin list because you have quite a sizable tree and I figured that I could find some connection in there.

Here is a list of M.W’s Shared Matches with Marcia:
3rd cousin - Chasvergason - 152 cms, 7 seg
4th cousins
Cindy Herbert - 55 cms, 3 seg
G.C. (Jennifer Clinton) - 52 cms, 4seg
J.E. (karenwindsor44 - 43 cms, 5 seg
R.M. (Cecelia McCann) - 39 cms, 3 seg
T.M. (Cecelia McCann) - 39 cms, 3 seg (probably sibling of R.M.)
Michelle Hallman - 39 cms, 3 seg
Terry Price - 37 cms, 2 seg
FDSMITH - 32 cms, 2 seg
Paula Hammelman - 30 cms, 3 seg
And several more

I think I’ll start researching Chasvergason and some of these other cousins.

Please keep in touch,
Jim

Subject: ancestry DNA MW not jcw for Marcia Mitchell

Hi jmerrell- My mother was from Allegany, NY, which is also where I was born. We moved to Coudersport, PA when I was 1 yr old. Mom died in 2001 but dad still lives there [He turns 90 on Monday; I'm on my way there now- from Richmond, VA- to celebrate.] I have 4 siblings, all born in Coudersport and I've done most of their DNA testing, as well as my dad's, 3 of his siblings and two of my mom's, so it is a little strange that you don't see more matches from 'my administration'. OTOH, that could prove useful...
My mother had 8 siblings, of whom only two survive- one still lives in Allegany, the other near Buffalo- and each of them had up to four kids.
Both of mom's siblings, as well as 4 of the 5 remaining of my dad's- two live in Olean- will be in Coudersport on Sunday.
… Well, that's about me, but I just looked at our match and for Marcia's tree. The reason for the 'short match' is that she does not match me but rather my (surprisingly) half brother, whose biological father has been my DNA quest for the past year!

My email is wetzupdoc@me.com . I am responding here on ancestry, because I get so much email, I may miss something so I thought best to start here. Would you mind sharing the tree you've constructed for her? You can see my tree here on ancestry, but that doesn't actually help you, does it. I can give you a little more about what I've learned over several platforms: ancestryDNA, FTDNA, and 23andMe.
Time to go to email. I will also send this by email.
Thank you for writing; this could help us both- we may be looking for at least the same father!

Marcia Mitchell
Sep 01, 2018
Dear Wetzupdoc1, you will find this to be a curious story. My name is Jim Merrell, adopted in 1944, and I found my birthparents over the last 2 years via Ancestry.com 1st and 2nd cousin matches.
Now, I am helping my cousin, Marcia Mitchell, also adopted in 1944.
I am currently logged in on her Ancestry account.
Marcia matches you (i.e. Mike) with 66 cms in 5 segments.
She has two 2nd cousin matches and nine 3rd cousins.
I have been able to construct a tree for her and I have connected several cousins. A sizable group is in the Olean, NY area, stretching over to NW PA. I noticed that you have relatives there as well. Your Shared Matches are not matching up with any of Marcia's closer cousins.
Would you be willing to correspond with me on this matter? I am at jmerrell@bellsouth.net. I hope you will help me.

· The Sepulveda Story tells how a treasure of family photos came to me. The pages are from the 100th Anniversary Portfolio, which I prepared in 2023 as a memento for the 100th anniversary of the first Mitchell-Vergason Reunion.
I used an archival-quality art portfolio, also called a presentation or display portfolio, which is a little like a book with pages inserted in plastic sleeves.
Using the portfolio allowed me to prepare most of the pages before the reunion, and family members attending were able to take the portfolio home. I left room for five more pages with photos and text about the 2023 reunion. I mailed those pages after the reunion.

Gerry Hamilton, this is wonderful. I'm curious to know if you have pics of anymore of the Strong family, as well as any pics of the Dingmans. And perhaps the Conrnelius's?

Sepulveda story: Old photo leads to a family treasure
Group photo from the 1st annual Mitchell-Vergason reunion
By Gerry Lynn Hamilton
Revised Sept. 29, 2023
In 2007, I became very interested in
my family history, which led me to start
a genealogy hobby. My mother Luella
Mae (Mitchell) Hamilton became my
No. 1 resource. In 1939, someone gave
her a scrapbook as a gift, and that began
her lifelong version of genealogy. She
saved photos, clippings and miscellane
ous items for a very extended family, as
well as her friends and prominent peo
ple in Potter Co., PA.
As Mom got older, she could not
keep up with pasting all of the obituary
clippings in albums, so she filed them in
envelopes by year. When Mom died in
2010, I inherited more than a dozen
scrapbooks and photo albums, as well
as the obituary clippings and hundreds
of loose photos.
Fortunately, I got to spend a lot of
time with my Mother before she died.
She helped with photo identifications

School senior photo (enhanced)
and family details, and her memory was
sharp until the last. I certainly got to
know my family tree, and best of all, I
got to know Mom better as I shared her
hobby.
Her photo collection included two
group photos from the first Mitchell
Vergason reunion in 1923. She was a
big help in identifying many of the 48
people in the two pictures. She was in
the photos and she remembered what
color dress she had on that day!
Through the years I was able to identify
other people in the photos, and specu
late about the rest.
In 2018, I prepared an online pack
age for the Painted Hills Genealogy So
ciety (PHGS). That package included
the two group pictures and a detailed
article listing all of the names of the
people who attended the reunion. (To
see the package, search for “1st Mitch
ell-Vergason reunion.”)
The public has free access to the
PHGS website, which is indexed by
Google. My hope was that anyone re
searching a related topic would find this
site and perhaps contact me with more
details.

About 2004, Richard Sepulveda of
San Antonio, TX, started a new hobby.
He is fascinated by old photographs,
and he began collecting them.
At a flea market one weekend in
September 2019, Richard acquired a
batch of about a hundred old pictures.
Richard wrote in an e-mail message:
“The guy who sold them to me had a
LOT of stuff and mentioned that he of
ten gets his stuff by buying storage
units.”
One of the pictures was a group pho
to. Richard was curious to learn more,
so he started a search for the names on
the back of the photo. He was “sur
prised that I found it in less than a mi
nute on Google.”
In his Google search, Richard found
one of the pictures I had prepared for
the Painted Hills Genealogy Society. I
included my contact information, and
Richard got in touch with me by e-mail.
He sent seven scanned photos that in
cluded eight people, and all of them are
in my family tree.
The people in the photos included
Charles L. Vergason my great-great
grandfather and his second wife Cynthia
Maria Strong. The other photos are his
descendants and her descendants.
Charles was a widower and Cynthia was
a widow so this was a second marriage
for both.
Charles is the patriarch of the Ver
gason Branch of our family tree. Also
Charles L. Vergason
Perhaps about 1894, he would have
been about age 60

many Mitchells descend from Charles
and his first wife Alvira Russell. Their
daughter Lydia Eliza Vergason married
George Washington Mitchell (b1844).
These are great pictures that do not
appear to be available elsewhere online.
Richard speculated about the source of
the photos: “I believe they belonged to
someone who was close to Gail Wade
Heinzman because there are a lot of him
and his sister.” I was curious to learn
more, so I asked some questions. Rich
ard wrote: “I have maybe close to 500
photos from the 1930s and earlier. I find
just about all my photos from estate
sales and flea markets (mostly flea mar
kets).”
Richard has continued to send pho
tographs by e-mail. So far all have some
words of identification for the people,
and such pictures are priceless. As the
photos arrived, I researched the identi
ties as we pieced together the puzzle
that is the Vergason family tree. The
extended family includes many sur
names ? Strong, McCann, Dingman,
Weir, Heinzman, Mitchell and many
others.
Richard is not related to the Ver
gasons, and he doesn’t have any par
ticular interest in genealogy. Perhaps he
can be classified as the accidental gene
alogist, and we can give some thought
to adopting him as an honorary Ver
gason.

How did those pictures get to Texas?
Gail spent most of his life in Pennsyl
vania and New York.

Charles Vergason (left) and Gail
Heinzman. Gail's photo was cropped
from the 1923 Mitchell-Vergason Reun
ion group photo. Both photos were en
larged and enhanced.
Gail Wade Heinzman, born 29 Jun
1917 in Bradford, McKean Co., PA,
was the first of three children born to
Glenn O. Heinzman and Mary Estelle
Weir.
Gail married Ethel M. Lathrop on 18
Oct 1940 in Olean, Cattaraugus Co.,
NY. Ethel was born 24 Apr 1920 in
Crosby, McKean Co., PA. She died 23
Feb 1991 in Webster, Monroe Co., NY.
Gail was a ham radio enthusiast. In
2006, InterceptRadio.com “the world’s
largest radio/scanner frequency data
base” listed Gail with a San Antonio
address. Possibly Gail moved to San
Antonio by 2006 when he was in his
80s.
Gail died 17 Sep 2009 in San Anto
nio. He was 92. The pictures Richard
Sepulveda acquired may have belonged

This photo had no ID on the back, but
Richard Sepulveda believes this is
Gail. I agree based on a comparison
with a known photo.
to Gail. There are some clues that Gail
had a daughter named Diana. Perhaps
she also lived in Texas.
Postscript: I have been in touch with
Diane Marie Heinzman of San Antonio.
She confirmed that these photos be
longed to her father Gail Heinzman. ¾

· MYSTERY PHOTO - can you help with the IDs?
Two group photographs were taken on the same day at the same place. Both photos were among the pictures rescued by Richard Sepulveda.
THE FIRST PHOTO attached shows four siblings, and we have identifications from the back of the photo. Following is the caption. (Note that Levi is a half sibling to the others.)
Children of Cynthia Maria Strong (from left): Albert Harry Vergason (1877-1970), Hattie Belle Vergason (1869-1934), Frank James Vergason (1874-1949) and Levi Orange McCann (1855-1844). Levi was the oldest of Cynthia's four sons with William Clark McCann. Cynthia had five children with Charles L. Vergason (1833-1924). Albert was Cynthia's youngest. This photo was among those provided by Richard Sepulveda.
THE SECOND PHOTO attached is a final edited version of the second photo, which does not have IDs. The information on the back: “Aunt Hattie from Cynthia.” This photo includes the four siblings. I believe the photo was sent to Hattie Bell (Ward) Vergason by Cynthia J. McCann (1898-1931), and I think Cynthia is in the photo. My guess: This photo includes spouses and children of the siblings in the first photo.
THE THIRD PHOTO with numbers shows the IDs from the first photo. Below are my comments about the unidentified. Any additional information is most welcome.
1. Albert Harry Vergason (1877-1970).
2. Maybe Albert’s daughter Loretta.
3. Levi Orange McCann (1855-1944).
4. Hattie Belle Vergason (1878-1961).
5. _____
6. Maybe Albert’s wife Hattie Bell Ward (1878-1961).
7. Frank James Vergason (1874-1949).
8. My speculation: Cynthia J. McCann, daughter of Jacob McCann, based on circumstantial evidence. She attended the 1923 Mitchell-Vergason Reunion, and I have her identified in the large group photo. In the 1930 US Census for Sweden Twp., she was identified as a widowed servant in the home of widower Frank J. Vergason. In the 1923 photo, this woman was standing next to Frank and a group of Vergasons.
9. Walter Weir, oldest son of Hattie Belle (Vergason) Weir, based on circumstantial evidence. He attended the 1923 Mitchell-Vergason Reunion. My mother, who was a child at the reunion, gave me clues that led to his identity.
10. I have ruled out Hattie Vergason’s husband Ira, who died in 1900. Cynthia McCann was born in 1898, so she would have been a toddler in 1900. This could be Hattie’s youngest son Earnest Allen Weir (1889-).

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.

Jan 09, 2018
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?

wetzupdoc1
Jan 09, 2018
[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
