Focusing on the lives
of any person or family who has lived in Little Washington,
Washington County, Pennsylvania at anytime throughout
history to recent times, through data and family stories.
NEW SEARCH BOX ADDED
This site focuses on how folks lived their lives, the
occupations they had, where they attended church, and their families. If
you want to include your family who lived in Little Washington,
Washington County, Pennsylvania at anytime throughout
history to recent times, please submit biographical information or your and family stories. Some
of the first settlers in the area came as early as 1744, with the majority
arriving after the 1760s. The 1700s is less documented, of course, than
the 1800s, so I welcome any submissions you might have for the 1700
time-period. The very earliest newspaper that is available on microfilm
is also closer to the 1800s for this area. I will do my best to provide
1700s information.
You will also find some information about Washington Co. towns, boroughs and
villages and persons who lived in those areas in the Town-Talk pages.
I do not know all the towns, so if you want to do a write-up I would appreciate
it.
See Washington PA Uptown Landmarks
-1 for North Main Street and Uptown Landmarks -2
for South Main St. in a walking tour-description of buildings and places. These descriptions are personal perspectives, with some
early history. Learn about the Washington Hospital
(under construction) and the Washington
Hospital School of Nursing - (Personal
Perspectives). I hope to add more biographical
sketches of graduates of the Washington Hospital School of Nursing.
This website also focuses on the lives of individuals and
families associated with the Ten Mile Church of the
Brethren, Marianna, Washington Co.,

The background was chosen specifically to
emphasize the matriarchal role of women in "the life" of
children and families, and the resilience of all the women of
southwestern Pennsylvania. |
