Ed, Do you see a possible connection to a Rudolh Huffman who was in Frederick County, Maryland in the mid 1700's ? He married a Dorthea Weiss and several children.Later moving to Somerset Township, Washington County, Pa.I do not have all the details in front of me as this is my friend's family, but I have helped her enough to know this much. Let me know. Thanks, Mike Little At 06:27 PM 6/30/97 +0000, you wrote: >Looking for old maps of the Winchester VA area.
