I bought about 30 fiddles from the estate of a local fiddler last weekend. Some of the fiddles are tagged by PA makers, and some have a definite home-shop-made appearance. Can anyone suggest resources for tracking down past PA fiddle makers ?

Some of the named makers are:

Carl Ralasiac (?) Philadelphia
A. C. Dorman Altoona (PA) 1941
Chas E. Roach 1938 #10
Estes Isely 1888

Here's a thread on the fiddles:
