Find Ancestors

Does anyone have any information about my GG Uncles Harry and William Bollard or their descendants? They were born in Rothwell, Northamptonshire, England, Harry in 1861 and William in 1857. They emigrated to Pennsylvania, USA around 1870, together with their father, William, mother Mary, brother Thomas and sister Elizabeth (married name Barlow). They originally settled in New Castle, Lawrence County where they set up a shoemaking business although by 1881 William had moved to Liberty , Mercer. Harry was married to Mary Myrtle Coulter (which could have been a second marriage) and was last known living in Akron Ohio where I believe he died. I think he had a son called Charles Wesley Bollard.
