Hello All,
Carl thanks for a trip back home! Wow, a Kittanning home page. I'm 56 years old and I live in Reading Pa. I was born in Tarentum and lived in that area for a while. My Dad (Herb Cravener) worked for the Red Hot Coal Company. Later after losing his job when the coal mines closed he repaired watches in Kittanning and eventually began to play his guitar at various nightspots. I had lots of relatives in Kittanning as all of my Dad's brothers lived there. (Herman, Roy, Eddie) I lived in and around Kittanning till I moved to Cochranton Pa while in the 5 Th. grade. I lived in Worthington and attended Worthington Grade School. I lived in Appelwold for a while and loved it there. What a nice little community it was. I can still remember hearing the siren blow for curfew and all we kids running for home. I wonder if they still have curfew there? Well I could go on for hours and that would cause you way too much work. I have a Cravener Family Page at www.geocities.com/allen_cravener for anyone who is interested in the Cravener family. It contains current and past photos of some of the Craveners. There are also some Email addresses listed there for family members.
Thanks again Carl and I will make it a point to put a link to kittaning.com on my home page.
I'll stop back often.
Please include my email address allen.cravener@penndata.com
