Silver Lake Township

Michael Sean Jones, 46, killed Andrea Vail, 76, in their Susquehanna County home after they argued over something she said about him, according to state police. He apologized to his 9-year-old son before trying unsuccessfully to kill himself.

Around 60 families had their history memorialized last month in the National Register of Historic Places. Descendants from the Richmond Hill School celebrated the one-room schoolhouse’s historic accomplishment on Sunday, Oct. 13. The school was commemorated for its role in Silver Lake Township’s early education and Irish history.
