Review of Billie McNamara's Mt. Zion Church Record Book
Western Pennsylvania Genealogical Society Journal Volume 22,
No. 2 (Fall, 1995), page 52:
"Anyone compiling records of any church and cemetery should use
this volume as an example for layout. IT IS BEAUTIFUL. The
author has furnished county maps and a brief history of Clarion County
and its settlement to assist the researcher along with a map and history
of Licking Township, the villages of Easton and Piney and Callensburg. About
1856, the residents of the section in which Christian Over had settled
converted the Joe Slaugenhaupt barn into a place of worship. Several
denominations -- the Reformed, Methodist, Lutheran, and Catholic families
-- worshiped here. Baptisms/Birth dates begin 1817 but are not
complete and continue through 1929; Church members and Communions begin
c1867-1928; Marriages show one for 1837, then 1886-1922; Deaths contain
one each for 1845, 1854 and 1862, then 1888 forward. An every-name
index completes this fine work." |
