Did you know that there is a small church called Brightbill's Meeting House(formerly U.C.C.) along Rt. 322 near Campbelltown in Lebanon Co.? Going west from Rt. 72 toward Hershey, it is on the right side of the road, immediately before Horning's Furniture store. The cemetery is small, surrounded by a gray stone wall, and easy to miss. I had driven past it, and nothing but a gut instinct told me to go back and look. I found three Fasnacht tombstones, which I have not yet placed within my Lebanon County Fasnachts. I had no expectations or prior knowledge to look there. Isn't that eerie? I'm teling you this because I think I have seen the names Brechbill and Brightbill linked in several places. Maybe you can find some of your family there, since the name was obviously linked to the church. Good luck! Bruce Fosnocht
