AYRT

Full disclosure, like the anon who replied below me, I'm not from PA, but I've driven through/visited friends and family over there (both city and country/suburbs?).
1. It is too large a state lol

2. While not Jeffersonville,

https://digitalarchives.powerlibrary.org/papd/islandora/object/papd%3Apmonr-acy

This might be helpful, it's the archives for the yearbooks at a highschool in a town in Allegheny County, and you might find some more information through newspaper clippings, or student bulletins. It's a digital archive. I hope it's helpful.

And maybe in your googling you're being too specific? Maybe just look up Allegheny county 1989 high school or something similar, and hopefully you can find other library or digital archive sites that include promotions for things going on during those years for the youth? If not the exact town, then an approximation?

Good luck!

Also, maybe check out what was going on in major cities (practicing magic in the back is cool and all, but as a teenager, maybe your character wanted to go visit the city, unless he'd been there -- you mentioned he was a foster kid-- anyway, just some tidbits).

Thanks! A more complete picture of the state will also be handy, when I get to the "running away from home cosmic horrors" bit of the story ^_^
