Helen, I may have seen the Cornthwaite name in connection with some Philadelphia YM documents, but I do not have them at hand. The name Cornthwait(e) does show up in several early Baltimore M.M. deeds. While our Baltimore YM Property List is not yet complete and I have not sorted through all the Baltimore City and County deeds, we already list three deeds that list a Cornthwaithe as a trustee: "12. MEETING: Baltimore Monthly, Eastern District "Patapsco" until 1781 "Baltimore Monthly" 1792-1807 "ESTABLISHED: Patapsco Preparative 1714 Aisquith St. Worship 1730 Monthly 1792/11/02 "LAID DOWN: Monthly 1819/10/26 (attached to Baltimore M.M., Western District => "Baltimore, Stony Run," M.M.)

The list does not seem to me complete. If you know of additional BYM meeting deeds, I would be glad to hear of them. Tom Hill Thomas C.
