    3. Can someone on the list please tell me where the Cumberland Presbyterian Church was or is located? I just received the obit for my g,g,grandmother Mary Jane (Wilson) Worrell via the kindness of my Worrell cousin, Mary Lee Rutherford. The microfilm copy is very dark and difficult to read in places; but, I will try to copy as well as I can so this can be added to Mike's list of obits. >From "Daily News Standard, Uniontown, Pa., November 13, 1893. WORRELL: IN BELLE VERNON, PA., NOVEMBER 7, 1893, MRS. MARY JANE (WILSON) WORRELL, IN THE 53RD YEAR OF HER AGE. SHE WAS THE DAUGHTER OF JOHN AND JANE (BEDELL) WILSON, AND, WAS MARRIED TO NATHANIEL WORRELL, DEC. 15, 1855. SHE WAS THE MOTHER OF ELEVEN CHILDREN, EIGHT OF WHOM SURVIVE. SHE WAS A CONSISTENT MEMBER OF THE C. P. CHURCH. Note: The marriage date is hard to read so it could have been Dec. 16 and the marriage year 1856. Also, there is no evidence in the family that John and Mary Jane had 11 children. I own their family Bible with all of the births and deaths carefully noted. There were only ten listed plus my 81 year old aunt tells me that there were only ten children. The C. P. Church has been identified as the Cumberland Presbyterian Church. Growing up in Belle Vernon, I am aware of a Presbyterian Church at lower Belle Vernon (Fayette Co.section); but, I am unaware that it was called Cumberland Presbyterian. Can someone please shed some light on this church?
