    3. Re Rev. Burleigh: I (Norman) seem to recall, as a child, my parents speaking of a Reverend Burleigh (Methodist) in the Thompson / Starrucca / Ararat area, and it is possible he may even have married them (1945). A relative perhaps? Re Civil War Monument: We are curious how it was decided in 1878 which names would appear on the Civil War Memorial, or is this listing just of those who died? Peter Dickey (d. 1835), who served in the Revolution, had two sons in War of 1812, and nine of his grandsons were in the Rebellion. We've thus far been able to document three -- Nelson (probably out of Clifford) in Co. F 3rd PA Reg. H. Art., William O. Doyle (probably Ararat) in Co. E, 177th PA V.I., and Theodore Doyle, PA Art. Peter is honored on a plaque at the courthouse, but what about these guys? (We're not whining, just curious!) N & E Dickey
