Mrs. Abigail Ann (Black) England's
Scrapbook
Altoona, Blair Co, PA
[Note: Abigail Ann (Black) England, wife of Isaac England, was a resident of Altoona whose scrapbook is probably dated from Conemaugh in Cambria County because she was visiting a relative there in 1885 when one of her children was born, according to a Black/England researcher. I am not related to this family, and the scrapbook was purchased on eBay. - Judy Banja]
