I just found a relative in the 1790 US Federal Census in Cumberland Co. PA. I'm new to this and am hoping that someone can tell me what the columns immediately following the individual's name represent. Is it household information i.e., free white males over 16, free white males under 16, and free white females? Also, does anyone know where Tyborn Twp. is/was? Trevor

Hello Fellow Listers: Did all Counties/States require that a license ["stub"] be obtained to dig a grave. I do know that there are very small, old stubs in Lewistown, Mifflin Co. as well as I've recently seen a posting on one of the counties in Ohio stating the same. If this was a requirement for all burials in these counties, between what years were they required and where are they housed as now???? Thanks for any help!

There is tons of Bowman research and information on the Shenandoah Co., VA website and at the Handley library. Many of the Swiss and Germans migrated from Cumberland and Berks Co to Shenandoah Co.during Dunmore's War, and to buy land from Lord Fairax, around 1760's through 1800's. Many records still intact (and transcribed.) This was a common migration route.

Boyd Trees has been updated. We now have 110,000+ individuals with over 16,000 Boyd's. (These numbers are a slight drop from last month because two individuals asked me to remove because of errors in their files and the number of living people in the file.) Do your cousins know where you are? Mine do. Boyd Trees is a data base devoted to any family tree that includes the surname BOYD.
