There appears to be some confusion over names. Your Oct. 18, 2008 message mentioned Beaver Dam cemeteries, and the current message is about Beaver Creek Cemetery in Fairfield County. The Beaver Dam church/cemetery I am looking for would be in Chester County, near Rocky Creek. My Telford family in the late 1700s and early 1800s lived in the area of Beaver Dam Creek and Rocky Creek, where they are close together. This is a group of Covenanters, closely connected to the people who came on the five ships with the Rev. William Martin. Allied names with Telfords: McCreary, Strong, Kell, Gaston.

Nancy, Pardon me for jumping in, but I noticed you listed the Gaston name. Have you come across mention of the Weir name. I have a Charles Weir who married a Margaret Gaston, both of the Chester-Fairfield area. His father was a John Weir, d. 1817. Have been unable to trace this family back.
