About the Book

The 1889 Johnstown Flood was the greatest loss of civilian life in a man caused tragedy until September 11. The rapidly expanding city was destroyed in less than 15 minutes when the dam of the South Fork Fishing and Hunting Club failed, wiping out everything in its path and killing 2,209 people. This book reconstructs the original directory, updating and adding new information. Citizens and businesses are listed both alphabetically and by address. Population, borough, religious and historical information, Oklahoma House locations, the flood babies and more.C. B. Clark's Story of the Johnstown Flood rivals David McCullough's book on the calamity. Written as only one who witnessed the devastation first hand could, it brings to life the horror of that fateful final day in May and those that followed.Constructed with information from city directories, vintage newspaper articles, birth certificates, death certificates, old maps, marriage licenses, family histories and many items only available in the Cambria County Library and her personal collection along with the original 1887 and 1889 City Directories, it's a must have for anyone interested in their family roots, the town, and the 1889 Johnstown Flood. 390 pages of historical information excellent for genealogical research.Check out Becky's other books. They're all set in Johnstown and are in a variety of categories. If your family has a connection to the 1889 Johnstown Flood and would like to share their tale, please contact the author, Becky Buchko, at BeckyBuchkoAuthor@gmail.com. She's spent the last two decades researching the flood and citizens of the era while working on her books. AUTHOR NOTE: After submitting the book for print proofs the file corrupted because it is too large. Final corrections cannot be done so there are several small errors in this edition. None of the errors are of the important statistical information. After days of trying to recover the file I had to make a choice of either reformatting the book and removing pages of information to get it below what can be handled or continue to publish. After much thought I have decided that because this information is so important to anyone doing genealogical research to publish as it is and recreate and reformat a smaller version without any of the minor errors for release in 2020. If you have any questions please contact me at BeckyBuchkoAuthor@gmail.com. May this book bring you as much joy in reading it as it gave me over the past years as I prepared it.
