Hello. My family that I used to go visit in Whitehall went by the last name of Gordan. My grandmothers name is Virginia (Ginny) and my mothers name is Barbara Ann Hopkins. I know I had few cousins living there. When I was a kid I would ride your dirt bikes in your front yard. If anyone knows any of my family contacts please feel free to pass them on. my email is seadogmfh@aol.com and/or hopkins.michael@cvn72.navy.mil

I was very pleased with the extraordinary efforts taken in Out Of the Darkness to honor the miners who died. My father worked in the mines for a few years-early 1940's. His sister Minerva's husband Donald Lord was died there in 1944.

Hi, am so impressed with the information and all the photos...My Grandfather, Edward Benjamin Rhinebold, died in the mines in 1926...have visited the museum and was thrilled to see his name on the memorie wall. Will get back this summer to visit again. The people working at the museum were very helpful and very welcoming, they even went out and talked to my mother while I was in the museum.. Thank you for all of your work and look forward to my next visit.

I am related to David Barber born 1815 Whitehall NY. Just wonder if anyone else related to him is still around in the local area.

It was wonderful taking my boys to the museum. My grand father was Allen Caswell. His pay stub was on display. My uncle Bud worked there as well. The attendants remember my mother Betty and my aunt Ruth and even my grandfather who used to help fix carburetors. I love the area and my family up there. Just got home yesterday after a 38 hours drive and already planning our next visit. Thanks so much for doing this and keeping the memory alive.

Brothers Lewis and Caleb Hurlburt lived in Whitehall early 1700's. Moved to Jennings Co (SE Ind) 1821. I know nothing of their life in Whitehall.
Bela O. Miner came from around this area in New York (1820's Indiana) Do any of these people sound familiar to anyone? Thank you for your consideration. |

Recently I attended the Lyon Mountain Museum.What a gem!! I told the docent Rita of my family background of the Standish, Wolf Pond area and the Romeo name. I had a great Uncle Henry from Standish and my grandmother Jeanette Romeo was from Standish as well. Her father's name was Antonio Romeo and his brother was Frank Romeo. I remember going to Uncle Frank's camp in either Standish or Wolf Pond as a kid. I recently received a photo of Antonio Romeo standing outside the Standish Dock and Coal Building and the old Standish Post Office. I am looking for any person or information about this family legacy. Please feel free to contact me at this e-mail address. Sincerely, Melissa Bistor-Cross

I've spent many an August in Lyon Mountain when I was growing up. My Mother, Joan Ukrainec (Collins)was a native of Lyon Mountain.

I'm Garrett Cashman's nephew. One of my early memories was the morning the police came to arrest him in 1954, I was 4yo. I have his seat and wooden bicycle rim, as well as his scrapbook. Thanks for the story.
