Perhaps one of the Gordon researchers can answer this question for me. It would solve a 10 year old mystery. I went to Knoxville, (Frederick Co.) MD to find where Denton Twigg and his family. They left Allegany Co., MD and settled in Knoxville, MD. The men in Denton Twigg's family are buried in the Knoxville, MD Old Reformed Church Cemetery. Knoxville is in the Brunswick MD area and has been a RR town from very early on. The tombstones for the 6-8 Twiggs are very distinct and all lined up in a row. In the very middle of two of Denton's sons is buried an Edgar L. Gordon - d. 3/1/1917 (36 - 6 9) His stone is exactly like the Twigg stones and they are the only stones in this cemetery I noticed like this. Other than Denton, all of the Twiggs buried in this cemetery are young men, ages 26, 22 15, 13 and so on. I don't know what happened to the wives of these men. I know the one remarried a John H. Smith and he is buried at the end of the Twiggs and yes, he has the same type of stone. Minnie Twigg Smith's name is on the tombstone with John's but she has no death date on the stone. After finding Edgar L. Gordon, I thought perhaps he was an Allegany Co. man that married one of Denton's daughters, moved to Knoxville/Brunswick area and he too worked on the RR with the Twigg men. Does any of the Gordon researcher's know who this Gordon is? Sharon

Linda, Thank you so much for bringing this to the attention of the list. One of the most touching pieces of paper I have collected in years of genealogy research is an account of a relative's participation in the Civil War which he wrote from my understanding for a Maryland supplemental pension. When I read "we took Pickett's Charge" (as his unit was right at the High Water Mark) and in another battle "we fired (light artillery) for thirty straight hours and I have not heard normally since", I felt like William Broderick was speaking right from the battle field. What a disgrace that NARA would just about seal these types of records to most people who can't go to DC to make their own copies by charging $125 instead of the already too high $37, from people who honor their ancestors by trying to learn about them! I hope everyone calls their Senators and Representatives. For a small portion of the amount government wastes, I think NARA could put all the civil war records online. Google is digitizing millions of books from university libraries - awesome to search under google more. The CIA has an online Freedom of Information website with declassified documents so they don't have to answer individual freedom of information requests. Don't think NARA couldn't find and train an army of excellent volunteers to scan documents to the web instead of the archaic idea of charging $125 for 30 or 40 copies?

The book has about 350 pages. 1710 and beyond is covered in other volumes. Hopefully I will get those online at some point as well. If you have a name and year I would be happy to check it for you. Alan Hi Alan, I was wondering if you might look for a Philip Crow or he may have gone by George Philip Crow/Groh. Possible year 1792 as that year he purchased some land in Allegany County. Thank you. Carol

That is a curious story re Pekin. If it were because of the WW11, it doesn't quite make sense, since China was one of our allies. Peking is in China, not Japan. Who knows how these things get started. If they were going to change it, you would think they would find a nicer name than Nikep! Perhaps spelling it backwards made it easier to remember.

Karen, >From what I found in the 1900 & 1910 census data, John & Mary Street, Charles' parents moved to Allegheny Co PA between Mar 1891 and Feb 1893, the birth dates of Elmer (born MD) and Albert (born PA). Whether Charles went with them or not cannot be determined from the census, but he is in Allegheny Co PA in 1900. His wife's name is Grace born July 1878 in MD. I couldn't find a Grace anywere in the 1880 census that matched her data. Here are some Allegany Co MD possibilities: Cora B. Gordon d/o James, & Harriet, Flintstone Born abt 1878 Margaret Gordon d/o John, & Christina, Lonaconing Born abt 1879 Martha Gordon d/o James, & Jane, Lonaconing Born abt 1878 Below is some census data on the families you mentioned: 1920 United States Federal Census > Maryland > Allegany > Cumberland Ward 3 > District 22 Mrs Bertie Page age 37 widow Clyde Page age 7 son Leonard Glenn age 17 step-son Marie Glenn age 16 step-daug Emily Gordon age 80 widow mother 1920 United States Federal Census > Maryland > Allegany > Cumberland Ward 3 > District 21 William E True 48 Martha E True 54 Chloe M True 26 Raymond K True 24 James B True 21 Nelia P True 19 William P True 14 Willie L True 10 Charles L Benton 22 son-in-law Lucy P Benton 17 daughter Lillian D Mudge 6 grand-daughter Leo P Mudge 4 grandson 1910 United States Federal Census > Virginia > Page > Luray > District 50 John W Gordon age 72 Emily S wife age 70 Bertie Glenn age 28 daug Leonard F Glenn age 7 grandson Agnes M Glenn age 6 grand-daughter 1910 United States Federal Census > Maryland > Allegany > Cumberland > District 4 William E True 39 Martha E True 44 Chloe May True 17 Raymond K True 13 James Davy True 10 Amelia P True 9 Luzey P True 7 William P True 4 Willis L True 7/12 1880 United States Federal Census > Maryland > Allegany > Not Stated > District 4 John Street 30 Mary Street 28 Charles Street 6 Samuel Street 4 Maggie Street 4M 1900 United States Federal Census > Pennsylvania > Allegheny > Mckees Rocks > District 439 John R Street 48 Mary Street 47 Samuel Street 23 Walter Street 17 Raymond Street 15 Wilbur Street 12 Elmer Street 9 Albert Street 7 Ellie May Street 4 1900 United States Federal Census > Pennsylvania > Allegheny > Esplen > District 381 Charles Street 26 Grace Street 21 1910 United States Federal Census > Pennsylvania > Allegheny > McKees Rocks > District 151 Charles L Street age 35 married 12 yrs born MD Grace M age 31 no children born MD (Parents & Siblings still in McKees Rocks in 1910) Carol

Thank yous to the two ladies who added to my knowledge of these families. Now I know that Grace Gordon was the wife of Charles Street. According to her mother's obit she was living in Pittsburgh in 1928. Grace was the daughter of John W. and Emily Susan Gill Gordon. Raymond K. True must have been considerably younger than his wife Bertie Gordon Page Glenn. I found a WWII registration card for a Raymond Kelly True and he stated his age as 48 in 1942 with a birthdate in 1896. I also found a Raymond K. True buried at Rose Hill. Stein FH records I looked to see if there were any Trues' in the phone book and plan to write to a few. I want so much to connect with descendants. Karen Nelson Hangsleben

They really are trying to put us out of business! I can see a raise in prices, but from $37.00 to $125.00? Please forward this to lists you belong to. Jocelyn in Ohio On the NARA pension records price increase from $37 to $125, comments to the proposed rule may be posted online by April 27, 2007. Go to: http://www.regulations.gov In the search box, type "NARA Reproduction Fees." The Proposed Rules and the Rules will come up. You can click on the text to read them. Then click on the yellow emblem by the first line - Proposed Rules - and fill out your name, zip code, etc., and make your comment. I would think legislators should be contacted also. Perhaps NGS/FGS will be leading an effort. Thanks. Tom Neel, OGS Library Director

Thank you so much, you have supplied the baptism records for 3 of my Great Great Uncles. It is very interesting to know that my great grandmother baptized these children all at once and since John Starkey died March 29th 1879, they were all baptized after their father died. All of the other Starkey information will be interesting to my other fellow Starkey researchers. My grandfather Burman A. Starkey was born to Margaret A Starkey (widow) 3 years after the death of John Starkey. The person listed on Burman's death certificate as his father. Ed, you can add this baptism information to your files on Lydiann. These are Burman's half brothers and the missing birth date on John Robert Lee Starkey is Sept, 9 1877. As recorded in the bible records of Margaret A. Starkey.

About 10 miles east of Cumberland is a small town of Flintstone. One of the side roads off of the old Route 40 is STREET ROAD. It was named this, so I've heard, back when the Street family had a tavern in Flintstone. Flintstone is just south of the Pennsylvania/Maryland border, not far from where my Gordons lived back in ca. 1770.

Looking to make a connection with descendants of the TRUE family (Raymond K. True) and of a Street family whose son Charles wed an unknown Gordon and might have relocated to Pittsburgh, PA prior to 1930. Raymond K. True was most probably the third husband of a Bertie Gordon. She was wed previously to a Joseph Glenn and an unknown Page. Anyone on the list interested in either or both of these families? Karen Nelson Hangsleben

Yes, I would be very interested to see if you have any baptism's, burials, marriages or any records on the surname of STARKEY. Lines would be Frederick Starkey, or John and Margaret Starkey's children. I know John and Margaret got married in 1872 and had 3 children before he died in 1879. So it may be likely the baptized their children within the time frame of these records. Frederick is buried in front of the church by a pine tree and there are several other STARKEY graves surrounding the church. John was buried there in 1879, but his body was removed along with others and placed in a common grave elsewhere. No one I've talked with had any idea where the "common grave" was located. All I was told was several miles away. The bodies were removed to enlarge the church. I know it was enlarged several times over the years. I also saw several tombstones lying up against the church sometime in the 90's when I was there looking for the STARKEY burial sites.

So, is anyone interested in this information from the Cresaptown United Methodist Church? The baptism dates are from 1877 to1885 as are the marriages. There are also probationers records (I guess these are church membership?). These are not complete records. I've transcribed them into Microsoft Word. Also, would the Allegany County Genealogy Society on Bowen Street want print outs?

Is there anyone on the list who might be researching Levi CLARK and Elizabeth POLAND, and/or their family? Time period c. mid 1800's, maybe around Westernport. Thank you. _________________________________________________________________ Win a Zune™—make MSN® your homepage for your chance to win! http://homepage.msn.com/zune?icid=hmetagline
