    1. [MDGARRET] Thanks for the Ruth Enlow Library Obits.
    2. To all those who are doing such a great job, your work and time are appreciated.? I always feel that Garrett Co.,Md. has the best genealogist.? They are so concerned with helping and sharing with others. I have been searching for many years on any thing I could find on my ancestors Solomon & Nancy Jane Sisney Schroyer. I lost them after the 1870 census in Accident, Md.? Their children are then found in the homes of other individuals so I knew they both had died. The obits gave me Nancy Jane Schroyers death as March 6, 1877, unfortunately it was one of the obits that did not have an article telling me where she was buried and her family.? That would have led me to a cemetery where perhaps Solomon is also buried.? There are some researchers who are using a 1875 death date for Solomon, but it is in Cambria Co., Pa. and not his. Again thanks to all of you hard workers Patricia Durst Shaffer. pdshafffer@comcast.net
