Dear Amy and Diane and Debra,
This Beldin line is my husband's. I would be interested in sharing photos, stories. Plus we have a book History of Cameron County Pennsylvania and there are stories and pictures in it on this line.
My husband's grandfather, Claude is the son of Sylvester.
In addition, I saw the name REED. My husband's grandfather, Claude, married Edna Reed, daughter of Elvira Young and James Willis Reed.
I've just requested their death certificates from PA. There is also info on line at http://www.genexchange.com/index.cfm
(Genealogy Exchange Surname Registry).
Unfortunately the guy looking for Beldins is not longer at the e-mail he had posted but a Reed searcher turns out to be a descendant of my husband's gr grandfather's sister (does that make sense?)
I have info back to 1066, not proven!, but so far it has checked out!

Please write thru this page or at beldin4@aol.com

Thanks, Margie
