The Berrysburg Circuit of the East Pennsylvania Conference of the Evangelical Association was located in the central Lykens Valley, Dauphin County, Pennsylvania. The Register of that circuit contains a brief history of the activities in the Lykens Valley and a register of members, baptisms, marriages and deaths for the years 1878-1958.
Evangelical congregations were found in Berrysburg, Elizabethville, Loyalton, Oakdale, Gratz, and other communities in the Lykens Valley.
The original records were microfilmed at Princeton, New Jersey, for the Genealogical Society of Pennsylvania, 1300 Locust Street, Philadelphia. These records are therefore copies of the originals and presented in the original handwriting of the registrar. Each microfilm frame contains two pages of records. There are 142 pages or records and no index.
Several years ago, the microfilmed pages were digitized and uploaded to Ancestry.com, where they are fully searchable and can be attached to Ancestry.com family trees as documents.
For researchers who do not have access to Ancestry.com, a high quality digital copy of this register made from the microfilm copy is available at the Elizabethville Area Historical Society . For further information, contact Marilyn Henninger.
