Thanks to the help of the list I was able to locate Little Brown Lake in Garrett County in August. I also ran into more Crowe cousins that live on the Avilton/Lonaconing Road and who's property is near the lake. It was mentioned to me that the lake wasn't always there but I didn't get a time frame as to when it was formed. Does anyone know when and what was there before it was flooded? I kind of have a guess that it was stripped by a Timber Company before it was made into that lake. Does anyone know of an Indian camp that was back there? They were Shawnee and Algonquin and later moved on to Pennsylvania taking an old Indian trail that runs back there as told to me by a cousin whose 93 year old aunt grew up back in those woods. I don't know of the name of the trail. They were still back there in possibly the 1920's or 30's. They may have been run off by a Mining/Timber company which bought land in Midlothian from Morris Winebrenner before his death about 1850. On checking a map I see the lake lines up fairly well to the backside of Midlothian and that there is still some strip mining noted on the present day map. Thanks for any information or advice on how I many further research this. Carol Vivier researching Crowe, Winebrenner and Barnard families.
I am looking for information on a Garrett County one-room school which was located on Aiken Miller Road near Accident. It was commonly referred to as "Miller School" or "Aiken Miller School." However, the official name must have been something other than Miller School. Any information at all would be appreciated. Thanks, Alice
Thanks Connie, I think I know where you mean. That means it went off of Upper New Germany Road. In the 1800s there was a Monroe Run School in the corner of the intersection there.

Does anyone know when the Trinity United Church of Christ, Twin Churches Road, New Germany, was built? Wasn't it a Methodist Church? Doret

Not sure when trinity was built,1880's Would be my guess. Trinty was German reformed then reformed, then evangelical and reformed, merged with Christian Congregational in 1957 to become Ucc. The other church was methodist, which was built about the same time, and closed by the United Methodist WV Conference. I have the dates in my file for that closing and can look it up if you are interested.

www.mdvitalrec.net from about 1898-1994 for the counties. What you have to do is search thru groups of years listed alphabetically on index cards. And from about 1898-1972 for Baltimore. Now there is a group from about 1875 to 1944 (I think I have the dates correct) where they have a search engine. Here you search thru pages thru groups of years listed alphabetically by vowel... >From about 1950 something you search groups of years by soundex numbers. So if you are looking from someone in Baltimore city be sure you have the soundex for them for these years. Hope you find your relatives.
What is the address for the Maryland death index? What are the dates covered?
There is a very brave man buried in Garrett County, a veteran of the Battle of New Market, Virginia, May 15, 1864. The VMI Corps of Cadets fought as a unit, and 257 cadets were on the field. Ten cadets were killed in battle or died later from the effects of their wounds; 45 were wounded. The youngest participating cadet was fifteen; the oldest twenty-five. Could someone please find and photograph the tombstone of: Thomas Gordon Hayes, VMI class of 1867, Oakland This is ALL I know about him. If you could find some biographical information that would be wonderful! A group of Virginia Military Institute alumni are attempting to locate the graves of all of the cadets who fought in the Battle of New Market in the Civil War. They contacted me about my ancestor who was a cadet then, and I volunteered to help them get the other graves photographed, knowing we have so many wonderful people on Rootsweb. ;-) You can visit their web page at http://www.augustagavmiaa.info/new_market_database.htm Read about the battle at http://www.vmi.edu/archives/Civil_War/cwnm.html. I've identified all the counties on the list of about 150 men they haven't photographed, and am contacting each county on Rootsweb. Then after I hear from everyone, I'm going back to research whom I can. One of those tip of the iceberg projects you accidentally wander into. I've been to the battleground, and no one else was there that day. It was quite moving to walk where they fought, and when this came up I felt like I had to help. I'll be unsubscribing as soon as this is posted, so if you can help please contact me at [email protected] . Remember, this is ALL I know about him. Thanks, Sarah Reveley San Antonio, Texas

CLUPP 31 Jul 1894 Mr Anthony Clupp, a miner from Lonaconing, died while at work at the Pine Hill Mine of George's Creek Coal & Iron Co yesterday morning, aged 62 years. He was engaged in wedging a ledge of coal, when a premature fall of roof coal fell, burying him and filling the entire room. Co-workers began to remove the debris but after several hours of work, his mangled body was unearthed. He leaves a wife, 3 daughters, and 5 sons. His burial took place yesterday. This was in the excerpts posted in the Allegany Co., MD Gen Web. by Charlie O.
