For Catherine Redding, born 1773:
In the IGI dated 1992 which I have the location/place of birth is and I quote exactly-- "INDIANA, ,OF"-
The year was written 1773. Indiana County, PA was not formed until 1803. Can you please help me? Lucy Redding.

my cell number is 319-213-1123.

I have a copy and can send the sheet to anyone who might want it.

 

Many many thanks.

    Your question is rather ambiguous - - what exactly is it you need help with?

    Yes you are right that the location name and the date don't match. Errors like this were quite common on the IGI. But what precisely can we help you with?

     

    I wouldn't put a lot of weight on something on the IGI

    I would look to find primary sources - such as bible records, probate records, church records and more.

     

    Have you located this person in the CURRENT Family Search Family Tree?

     

    Can you tell us more about Catherine's other family members.
