    3. The 1864 map by Bridgens show two cemeteries south of the road now called Brenneman Rd in Manor Twp Lancaster Co PA -- one is on a corner at the United Brethren Church (shown on modern maps), the other a scant mile farther west just after a bend in the road (not shown on modern maps). The 1864 land owners named do NOT include a MUSSER but a P. STEHMAN on the north side of the road and "Este[superior e -- estate?] Rudh(superior h -- Rudolph?) WISSLER on the south side next to the cemetery. Jan B. > According to Churches and Cemeteries of Lancaster County, it is south > of Brenneman Road, on a fence line between two farms.
