💥IMPORTANT PAGE UPDATE💥

Good afternoon to all of our Facebook friends!! We here at the ELHS appreciate each of you, and we love the interactions we have here on our page! A couple of months ago, a new FB page was created due to some complications with this one, and many of you have already made the switch... and we thank you!

However, it's difficult to maintain two pages, and so this will be the LAST WEEK that this page will be available.

The link to our new page is: https://www.facebook.com/ELHSHughesville/

We don't want to lose any of you, so if you haven't already, please click on the link and give us a follow. We'll see you over there! ❤🚂

We are proud to announce that a wonderful new resource we've added to our research collection. Matt Wheeland recently donate copies of PA Genealogy 3.2 One Room Schools for our part of Lycoming County.
Let's say you remember that your Grandfather went to a one room school near Lairdsville but you can'remember which or when. All you have to do is look up his name and it should help you find if he actually did have to walk uphill to school both ways. The resuts are based on countless hours of scouring through old School Souvenir booklets of schools in Eastern Lycoming County and compiling the data into this easy to use format. Of course their will be missing records for myriad reasons buy the vast majority are there.
Stop in sometime and check it out!!! :-)
