DANNS IN THE TIOGA COUNTY TOWN OF UNION

1850 and 1860

In examining the Tioga County PA Town of Union census data, there it surprised me that there were so many Danns. It wasn't just Philip and family in a township of less than 300 households. Noted below are all the Danns and their relationship to each other. Some are yet unidentified.

This page, as most others on this site is still incomplete. More information will be added as it becomes available. Many other familiar names crop up in the list as I learn more of the family. Irvins, Barkers, Bunns, and others all married Danns, some twice. I will try to note these families at a future occasion. It was quite a community up on that hill!

There were no Danns in the 1840 census.
