I know is a little off topic - but I am having a hard time printing the PDF reports for the 1909-1910 report - anyone who can assist me PLEASE EMAIL ME OFFLIST - (I was able to print 2 seperate pages - but not the whole 62 pg. report - and then could not even print a single page -only get a blank page). Thank you - Ruth

I can't think of the secretary's last name, but her first name is Dorothy. If you just call the church, if she is working, she would answer. Also Richard "Bob" Stevenson is superintendent of the Sunday School up there. He lives on Water Street and his number is in the phone book. He might be able to give you some info as he has been a member for a long time.

Connie, St. Davids Day is celebrated in March. I think you called the church and you were invited to attend the St. Davids celebration. Are there any Wwlsh Memorial on the mail list that might know if there are any old records that might be available for research or if there is someone that could be contacted for information?

Several of my ancestors were killed in this mine disaster in Elk Garden in 1911. Great great grandfather John Wilson, age 57, and his two sons, Lester 18, George 23, and a son in law Frank Wilson 23. John's widow Cecelia, also spelled Celecia, lived in Moscow, between Lonaconing and Barton. There is a nice monument in Elk Garden near the fire hall in memory of these miners. _http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~rosadove/DeeDovey'sPage/elkgardeaths .htm_ (http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~rosadove/DeeDovey'sPage/elkgardeaths.htm) ************************************** Get a sneak peak of the all-new AOL at http://discover.aol.com/memed/aolcom30tour

Connie, You were looking for some Welsh families that may have come to Frostburg from the Blae Avon area of Wales. I think it was around St. Davids Day. We never did find out if they had any old church records.

Chere, Mt. Zion Baptist Church was organized in 1868 by some Welsh immigrants. It is now known as Welsh Memorial Baptist Church. It is located in Frostburg.

Does anyone know if the West Virginia Pulp and Paper Mill aka Westvaco, in Luke, MD and now it is know as something else has any records of past employees? My father, his father, and my other grandfather all worked there, probably most of their lives. I googled it, and find a good bit about the history, which is interesting, but I was wondering if there was ever a log of employees, or of the retirees. Louann Kiddy Creasy

Ruth, that link worked fine for me. I read through it briefly, and I was amazed at the young ages of some of the mine that were killed in the mines. It must have been a hard life back then.

SZSN Goes Through The Roof! UP 37.5% Shandong Zhouyuan Seed and Nursery Co., Ltd (SZSN) $0.33 UP 37.5% Brokers are grabbing up SZSN like crazy after two news releases this week. Huge expansion plus multi-million dollar development projects are pushing share prices through the roof. Act fast and get on SZSN first thing Monday! Was that a cry for help? There is nothing better than sitting down around the table with a few friends, ordering a pizza or two and losing yourself in a world of fantastic adventure. Jennifer rolls more dice to determine how much damage the sword blow does to the wolf and the GM reduces the wolf's "life" by the damage amount. You don't know if they have families or live alone; whether they have jobs or are transient bums; whether they are poor or have overflowing coffers. Man In Trench Coat Good, now that you know what motivates you and what you're good at, you can apply these connections, skills, or motivation while you're out taking down the bad guys. Satanic Mills is a role playing game about the production of alienation and the destruction of human lives. They had just thrown off the yoke of the Owlursines and wished to revel in their new freedom and eat lots of Dream Honey. Jennifer rolls more dice to determine how much damage the sword blow does to the wolf and the GM reduces the wolf's "life" by the damage amount. In the game, the most important thing to your character is his or her Motive. She has told the GM that Travos is following the tracks he saw earlier and that he is keeping his eyes peeled for danger. Workers are alienated from other people as the exchange of money and commodities warps social relationships. Choice of armor and weapon will change your strategies and your game. The Player Characters After the departed member of the family has been fleshed out, the rest of the family must be constructed. So, have each player state what will happen if they succeed in the roll, and the person to the left describe what will happen if the roller fails. Take two Honey tokens and put them in front of you. Perhaps, for example, the motive is an object your character wishes to buy; perhaps there is someone in town that they wish to meet with. People are finally alienated from their species being, since the loss of meaningful productive activity removes one of the main capacities that makes us human. It's a game by "Samuel Clemens", a young man with lots of energy. "I was told that help might be coming. If you need something from me, I'm available. This is a piece of treasure that you have to leave behind because you don't have thumbs. "Interesting, but what makes this a game? " RPGs are generally meant to simulate dramatic adventure stories. Slowly, the guilt of violating duty can overcome a character, so it's a race to bring down or be brought down. Man In Trench Coat See girls, we recruited you because of your sense of duty and motivation to expose these evildoer crooks for what they are. " That's what the RPG rules are for. What if the characters' power would greater than any other character's? The dead humans were turned into the flying skulls dubbed Lost Souls. Corner Box A winning player's intentions dictate how any conflict will turn out after the dice are rolled. Choice of armor and weapon will change your strategies and your game. One hundred words are plenty. You need to pass this test if you're going to advance to the next part of training. Excerpt from "Doom: Semper Fidelis" UAC researchers on Mars' moon of Phobos have inadventently opened a gate into an infernal realm. It's probably family friendly as long as it isn't played while drunk. Man In Trench Coat Well, ladies, I tell this to all my recruits. He looked down at the formerly animated corpse squeezing his sword ever more tightly in his grip as he regarded it. Also, think about all the things that a Gelatin Cube can do. Be the Space Marine who travels to Phobos to kill lots of demons in order to save Earth. However, each member of the family has ulterior reasons for wanting to go to town, and is largley using their newly dead relative as an excuse to get what they want. Jennifer rolls to hit the wolf again and rolls high enough to hit. As an example, for a two player game the players choose to be a young couple on their honeymoon in Hawaii. We even work nights and weekend. Like how much damage Travos' sword inflicts or how much "life" the wolf has. What would they do with such a power? Here you'll learn about being an operative before heading off in the dangerous field. Adventure stories are often filled with perilous action sequences that endanger the heroes of the story in some manner. Once you think you have a good "feel" for how things should go in your head, give it a try. Let's make you Owl-Pooh sized, so instead of ten feet here and there, you're two feet there and here. Jennifer rolls more dice to determine how much damage the sword blow does to the wolf and the GM reduces the wolf's "life" by the damage amount. There are also many different settings and backgrounds.

Just in case the link I sent for 1909 - 1910 report does not work (as it did not work for me when I went back) try this page - it lists ALL years for annual reports. Ruth http://www.frostburg.edu/minemapping/annual_reports.htm

I found this by doing a google search for Hamilton and McGann - as the subject line states, it is a report of the mines for 1909 and 1910. IF you lost family in the mines for these 2 years, most likely you WILL locate some personal data. I found a report on the death of John Y. Hamilton, my great uncle, who died in an accident in 1909. And a non-fatal incident report for his brother Arthur Hamilton. This is VERY informative - for newbies, gives you quite a bit of mining history also. > This is a large pdf file, is 62 pages - takes a few minutes with > dial up to load, as it is 1.16 MG - > > http://www.frostburg.edu/minemapping/annual_reports/1909_1910.pdf > > enjoy - Ruth Sprowls >

A grand uncle, David Ritchie McFarlane of Lonaconing married Ruth Jane Wellings of Midland in Mt. Zion Baptist Church parsonage on 1/23/1927 by the Rev. W. D. Reese. Does anyone know where this church is? Thanks, ~Chere

Nina was the step-daughter of John Willison Gracie and used the Gracie name (maybe unofficially). Nina was born in Kentucky about 1919 and lived in Cumberland from around 1923 onward. Nina's mother was Virginia ?. Sometime before 1952, Nina was married to someone with the last name of Wilson, but was living with (and caring for) her step-father on Bond Street in Cumberland. Does anyone have any info on her mother Virginia, or on Nina's husband? Thanks, Dave Gracie
