PETER'S CEMETERY The following is a PARTIAL list of folks buried in St. Peter's Cemetery outside of Oriole, Maryland (once known as St. Peters, MD). The original list, dated 29 Jul 1994, was provided to John Herold by Clarence Irving Laird Jr. in March 1997 and included only the names of those interred there - no dates. It was John's hope that perhaps a visitor or resident of the area could provide the missing data. Fast forward to 2001. An updated list of interrments was provided to Cindy Lawson by Patsy Laird, and Cindy in turn sent the list in to the Somerset Cemeteries Project. Cindy says, "The original list I received was dated 1/8/1997. The list contains the names of those interred there - and dates. But I have not been back down with my transcribed list to double check that all is completely correct (and probably won't until skeeter season is over as it took several months for the itching and swelling to go away after the last fight with them), but I wanted to get this information out there." The original list document was in columnar form. The number designations within the list indicate the column number, and the letter designations indicate a group within that column. Many thanks to both Cindy and John, for providing this list to the Somerset MDGenWeb Project!

Surname List</A> by Fred of 288 >From page 105 Eben quotes the following: SAMUEL WHITMAN - among those who adhered to Presbyterianism,at the time the change was made, appears the name of this man. (He then locates the "Whitman Place," where Samuel Whitman probably settled, and where Weston Nutter later erected buildings. It was always called the "Whitman" place. The house stood where the barn in now: the main part contained but two rooms, but a shed part ran the whole length, in which one room was finished. But the east end was open and the well was in it, in one corner, with a hole in the roof where the pole for drawing wter ran up through. Ministers later lived in the house at various periods. Eben also remembered a John and a Daniel Whitman, but they did not live in Bloomfield. John lived on the Pooler hill directly east from Haskell's corner. He lost his children in a tragic fire while he and his wife were at church. No more details are given, though I suppose deeds could be found at the Skowhegan Registry of Deeds which might give further information. Kathleen
