Hi Sarah,
 
You've probably already tried this, but the PA Historical Society might help too (http://www.hsp.org/) or maybe the Slifer House Museum (http://albrightcare.org/slifer/Default.asp), which is located in Lewisburg, PA. Maybe it's the same Mrs. Slifer!
 
Good luck.
Celia

Hello all!

I'm looking for some assistance in researching a historical piece that was
just acquired.
The object is a marble slab that was placed by the fireplace during the
18th century. The maker was James H. Logan, a local Philadelphia figure
who built the Stetson Mansion in Germantown, PA. The object was engraved
with his signature and who it was made for, a Mrs. Slifer.

Does anyone have any suggestions about where to look or who to contact to
get more information about the people and/or the object? Google is just
bringing up too many answers.

Thanks so much!
Sarah
