Joe, The Pyle(s) line had a strong presence in Maryland. I would sure like to hear more about the cemetery you found in Winchester, Va too. I've been through Winchester before but not to any cemeteries there. Do you remember the name of it? BTW, your computer is still adding a lot of strange things to my address if you will notice below. I am copying all of this to the PYLE list because someone else might be interested. If not, they can delete.
