I am a descendant of the Paxtons of Adams County and Cumberland CVounty Pennsylvania - I know about some of them - the oldest being Aaron Paxton - a Civil War Veteran who died about 1886 at 68 years of age (I think) There was a bunch of Paxtons at a place called Marsh Creek - somewhere around Gettysburg. I dont think this has been of any help - but if you know anyth ing about any other Paxtons in this area, I would appreciatye any leads - Sincerely Gary Thomas
