Thanks everyone for the responses! According to my Family Treemaker program, I am the 1st cousin, 4 times removed, of Elsie Barncord -- although Barncord would not have been her married name but her original name. The Elsie Barncord I have in my tree was born 1895 and was the daughter of Henry O. Barncord. Would that be the same Elsie you're referring to? According to my research, the Barncords were originally the Bancords (and I've seen it spelled Bankard as well). Sometime between 1880 and 1900, the entire Cumberland family of Bancords seemed to have jointly decided that they'd henceforth be known as the Barncords -- so I'd like to find out why that happened. One of the Bancord patriarchs was Henry Bancord (1822-1869) -- who married Catherine Ann Gary (sometimes spelled Geary) (b.1831) in 1848. As for the STEIN name -- I'm researching the Cumberland family of Steins - Jacob (b.1834) and Elizabeth (b.1840) Stein who came over from Germany. Would like to find out more about that couple and where in Germany they were from (their kids were Pauline, Louis, Edward, Charles, and Elisa). Jacob and Elizabeth were my 4th Great-Grandparents. Not sure if any of their descendants or relatives ended up in Somerset County. jeff <jeff61@comcast.net> wrote: I know these families.

I don't know Elsie's maiden name, but I do know that The Barncords were related to a Knieriem family in Ridgeley, WV. So maybe her maiden name was Knieriem. Years ago there was a Stein Funeral Home in Cumberland, MD, Louis Stein was the owner. Don't know how far back they go in the area. I have tried to connect this Stein to George Washington Stein that I am trying to find.
