ACCORDING TO WRITTEN FAMILY STORY HELD BY JAMES OWEN GRIFFIN JOHN EDWARD WAS BORN IN BALD EAGLE BLAIR CO PA/TOPLIFF- OSWALT- WEBER- HERSHEY SHOW HIM BORN INCENTER CO... BOTH COUNTIES RUN ALONG THAT VALLEY AREA. I COULD NOT FIND HIM INBLAIR CO RECORDS THAT I'VE FOUND SO FAR SO I WILL USE THEIR CO AREA UNTIL I FIND ANYTHING MORE DEFINATE... ALSO BY CEMETERY RECORDS HELD BY THE CATHOLIC CHURCH IN FRENCHVILLE CLEARFIELD CO PA AND THE CEMETERY STONES AT ST SEVERIN'S CEMETERY IN DRIFTING CLEARFIELD CO PA AS WELL AS CENSUS RECORDS FOR CLEARFIELD CO FOR 1900 AND 1910. SOME IMFORMATION MAY BE IN RECORDS IN DAUPHIN OR LANCASTER COSINCE HIS PARENTS TOOK HIM BACK TO HIS FATHER'S HOME AREA AS A SMALL CHILD ANDGREW UP THERE UNTIL SOMETIME INTO THE LATER 1870'S WHEN HE AGAIN TRAVELED WITHHIS FATHER BACK TO NEAR THE AREA WHERE HE HAD BEEN BORN. HIS MOTHER DID NOT ALWAYS TRAVEL WITH THEM OFTEN SHE WAS SOMEWHERE ELSE. POSSIBLY STILL IN THE DAUPHIN OR LANCASTER AREA... {POSSIBLY WITH ANOTHER CHILD OR CHILDREN ?}IN ONE SET OFCENSUS RECORDS I FOUND AND ANDREW AND SUSANNAH WITH A YOUNGER SON ANDREW J COULD THAT HAVE BEEN THEM?
