In reference to Sheirdan House," Big Pat "Dormer's – was that a relative of Frank E. Dormer, of Tremont, PA ?
I found a light blue-green bottle of "Frank E. Dormer, Tremont, PA" – undated. I have searched Martin Dormer ( b. 1824 ) – brewer, St. Clair but can find no info on Frank E.
Can anyone help?

Helen,

my Aunt Mary Judith (Judy) Whittaker-Cavanaugh Fruhwirth is the granddaughter of Julia Lawler.

Julia Lawlwer's father was James Lawler of Yatesville/Mahanoy Township.

Sorry, the Sheridan House was Dormer's. Lawler's saloon was at 437 W Coal St, though.

Would anyone know the exact address of Muff Lawler's Tavern in Shenandoah on Coal Street?

Hello

To anyone interested, I have several copies of the original 1878 trial transcripts for the Molly Maquire cases held in Pottsville. These were found in Pottsville PA in the effects of the law firm that tried the case. Feel free to inquire for further details. Since I'm not sure how anyone is able to contact posters via this board (ie, there's no way to find your email address etc., you can simply do a 411.com phone directory search for Phil Hoover in Kent, WA as I am the only one listed in Kent).

I am a descendant of Michael Cooney from Pottsville, also a Molly Maguire. I am interested in learning anything about the Molly Maguires and any connections to Michael Cooney.
