Commemorative Biographical Record of Central Pennsylvania
Including the Counties of
Centre, Clearfield, Jefferson and Clarion

I have uploaded the Index which does not state the County,
However, you can check for the name of Interest.
The Index is a pdf file, almost 4mb.
It appears that the RootsWeb Volunteers have Transcribed some of  the Biographies.

The Biographies for Clarion and Jefferson Counties have not been done.

Centre County - Clearfield County
Jefferson County - Clarion County

I am happy to send biographies of persons of interest: Please include Full Name, Page Number and state that it is from "CCJC, PA 1898"
