Does anyone know how many cemeteries existed in Leitersburg, Md. in 1842. I am trying to locate the grave of Rebecca Crooks Mayhugh, wife of James P. Mayhugh who died June 21, 1842. Gordon crooks
Gordon, there are some Mayhugh burials in the Church of United Bretheren Graveyard at State Line PA, near the MD line. Rebecca, wife of George and at least one of their children. They are of a later time period - her dates are 1846-1889 and the child died in 1867. Two others are buried there - Samuel who died at 14 months in 1869 and John who died at age 11 in 1888. If you want detailed info, let me know - these are from Vol. III. Hopefully Rebecca's gravestone lasted long enough to make the readings in the 1930's and someone else will turn it up in another volume.

Lauren: That's not the right one, I understand there were quite a few Mayhughs. The one I am looking for was 23 when she died and was married to James P. Mayhugh and left her husband and two daughters.Assuming he was of similar age he probably re-married. I am reading this right out of the family bible where it was recorded by her Father, almost all the other burials mention a Church and/or Cemetery, so I am guessing this had to be the Mayhugh burial ground.
