Imagine your surprise to see your ancestor mentioned in a divorce action either as a contestant or perhaps as a neighbor, relative, or friend of a contestant. From colonial times to the Civil War days, a large number of divorce actions are on record for Dauphin and York Counties, Pennsylvania. This book records the available details in the surviving records. Typically, these records establish the date and place of the marriage, and often mention whether either of the parties were previously married and if there were any children. Other family members are frequently named as witnesses and \"next friends.\" The compiler has grouped together all of the separately dated entries for each case, thus eliminating the frustration of leafing through the entire book to follow the progress of a single case. The cases are arranged chronologically according to the date of the original petition, and a surname index makes it easy to find the names of the participants in each transaction.The compiler has been actively involved in doing professional genealogical research for twenty-eight years (at the time of publication), taking him to the attics and basements of Pennsylvania courthouses.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEugene F.

This book gives a good account of the growth of Harris' Ferry into the town of Harrisburg (founded by John Harris, Jr., in 1785) and finally into the seat of the Pennsylvania government in 1812. The book is rich with abstracts, anecdotes, quotes, lists, and letters, which serve to illustrate much of the formative struggles of the early settlers. There are no accounts of the French and Indian War, the Whiskey Insurrection, the Buckshot War, and the founding of Dauphin County. There are records of a time when Harrisburg was considered as a site for the seat of the federal government as well as the State government. This book also includes muster rolls of volunteers from Harrisburg for the War of 1812 and the Mexican War. Also included are lists of attorneys practicing in Dauphin County from 1785 to 1858 and short histories of prominent pastors and churches as well. Complete with a new index of over 4,000 names, this book provides the reader with a unique glimpse into the lives and times of Harrisburg's earliest settlers.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eGeorge H.
