Rich,

I can address the records held by the Crawford County Historical 
Society.  They are currently NOT accessible to the public.  They are not 
well cataloged and only partly and very roughly organized.  They are, 
however, safe.

There are currently two groups working on those records, the CCHS and the 
French Creek Valley Railroad Historical Society.  When the status changes 
we will be sure to share it with both the ELHS, this group and the world.

There is a wealth of information there and it will be available, but in the 
future.
