Greetings...
My name is Kate Maynard and I am the owner/administrator for Gilliland Trails, a Gilliland family genealogy forum at www.gillilandtrails.org
I recently obtained a letter written in 1874 by Joseph Gilliland to his sister Mary Gilliland. I have posted scans of this letter, as well as a transcription, to the Gilliland Trails library. You may view the letter using this direct link:
www.gillilandtrails.org/pages/letter_oilcity.asp
In the letter Joseph writes of his daughters Lydia and Clara, his mother-in-law Mrs. Yothers, a Mrs. Cole and a Mr. Frank Hall.
In addition to this letter, there are some other items in our library you may find of interest if you are a Gilliland with Clearfield connections.
As with all materials of this type I like to see them returned to family who will care for them as family heirlooms. There is no cost for their return, only a promise to care for and share the items with future generations. If you are a Gilliland or descendant of this line and wish to have this letter, please let me know. And I hope to see some of you at Gilliland Trails!
-- Kate
