I'd like to post some information my dad, Bud Railey, wrote for me about McHenry MD where he was born. His parents had the C.M. Railey General Store on old State Route 37, now US 219 and the intersection of Bumble Bee Road. The store was built in the early 1900s, and his parents, C.M. and Edith Merrill Railey, sold it in 1830 to Henry and Flossie Merrill and moved to the Deep Creek Bridge area where they had Lakeside Park, Railey's Cottages, and in 1932 built the Stone Tavern. He wanted to record what he calls the "oldtimers" in the McHenry area from about 1900 to 1930s. He welcomes any additions or corrections, and he may be able to help folks with family history questions. Here goes: Charles Mahlon and Edith Merrill Railey; Byard Railey; Woody Brant; Ed and Emma Deal; Abraham Demonville Huff; Pearl McLean; Bill Walton; Charlie Savage; Fred Bland; Noah Pysell; John Kurtz; Earle T. Glotfelty; Hubert M. Bowman; Henry and Flossie Merrill; Asa & Nina Glotfelty; Harland Bowman; Walt Bowman; Arthur Savage; George Glotfelty; Jake and Lily Knox; Mike Smith; John Glotfelty; Jim Glotfelty; Edmund Harvey; Arch Glotfelty; Bennett Paugh; Charlie Barr; Matt Storey; Marira Drane; Ogilvie Halsey; Jack Brant; Dave Shank; Willis Eckerd; George Sloan; Tut and Sadie Edgar; Stella Bowman; Sid Harvey; Milt Edgar; Charlie Peck; Gorman Thayer; Spide Thayer; Eddie and Louise Browning; Elmer Haulenbeek; Doc Bullard. Some businesses he recalls to about 1933 are: Glotfelty Garage, Hubert M. Bowman General Store and Post Office; his family's General Store; Ed Deal's Blacksmith Shop; Matt Storey's Restaurant; Hatfield's Bicycle and Novelties (now Point View Inn); Ferndale Tea Room (later the Cellar Door), Lakeside Park and Stone Tavern, Halsey's Snack Bar, George Sloan's Coal Mine, Cabin Lodge, Rainbow Inn. I'll be happy to forward questions or corrections to my Dad. Beverly Railey Walter
