Does anyone on any of these lists have any information on Burns Brothers Brick Company, Excelsior Brick Company and Muth Brothers Copany.

Hi ... I saw your posting about Cummings. I am stuck on some Cummings ancestors in Maryland. I have seen it with and without the "s". My great great grandmother was Jane (Jenny) McCully Cumming, born in 1817 (place unknown) to Thomas Cumming , born 1780, and his wife Jane Galbraith. Jenny married John Henderson in Washington, D.C. in 1849. Do you happen to have these people in your files? Thanks for any information you may have. Ann Chandler in Oregon
