In reference to Mathias Lilley he was my G- Grandfather.Spent 3 mths this past fall in Uniontown getting verfications and documentations. He was the son of Francis A. Lilley if this helps in the mix of things. The putting together of things another dis. cous. and I put dates together and "came" to the conclusion that he was in the 1870 census after returning home from his stint in the Cival War. If I have info or can be of help just let me know will gladly share and try to help. In researching White Rock cemetery I found that Francis Lilley had purchased a small quantity of a cloth that was used for burials back then and all the larger it was had to be for an infant or small child so thats what I have been working on.Hope this helps in the mystery of Mathias Lilley. God Bless--Ellagrace
