Hi everyone! I have recently started my family tree and I am looking for more info. Perhaps someone here can fill in some gaps or provide more info. Also I am plan to be in the Westernport area this Nov. and I would love to hook up with someone that could show me around the courthouses and other places that might help me out. My grandparents are Ervin & Leona (Buskirk) Grove. My grandfathers parents were Dennis Elias Grove and Mary Green? I am not quite sure of Mary's maiden name but this is what I got after talking to relatives. This is all I have down the Groves line. This Grove line lived off of Arrows Run north of Westernport on Westernport Rd. about 3 - 5 miles. >From my grandmothers memory the Grove's pretty much owned the top of that mountain a long time ago. None of the census records list any Groves, I guess the census takers didn't travel that far back into hills. LOL. Any help with the Grove lineage would be appreciated. My grandmother Leona's parents were Lewis Buskirk and Alice M. Dawson of Midland, MD. Lewis was a store keeper (confirmed by my grndmother and the 1930 census) and Alice's Parents were Charles Dawson (I know for sure) and Mary (I do not know the maiden name). Alice had a sister named Emma and I think another sister Mary. According to the 1930 census Charles Dawson was born somewhere in PA. In the 1920 census Lewis had indicated the his parents were from Germany but on the 1930 census it lists his parents from MD. The Buskirk name used to be VanBuskirk according to my grandmother. I am stuck on the Charles Dawson part and would like to know where in PA he was born. Bryan Baire
