Thanks Michael for your answer to my Frieden's question. I never knew there was the same named church in Rockingham Co. My 4th great grandfather Rev. Schmucker was the minister in Shenandoah and many other areas. I have been looking for my 3rd great grandfathers' burial place for years who died in 1853 in Shenandoah, George Good.

?"Frieden" in German is "Peace" in English, and thus is a quite common name for churches, and appears in many counties. Friedens UCC Church in Rockingham Co, VA was previously Friedens German Reformed Church [and I suspect was originally Frieden or Frieden's]. It is on Friedens Church Road in Rockingham County and still holds services, although when I attended service there a year ago the attendance was rather sparse. My 2GGAunt Catherine Flory married Samuel Good of Good's Mill in Rockingham County. My ancestors for most of the 19th century lived on Mill Creek which flowed through Good's Mill, and my GParents lived in Good's Mill when they were first married. I do NOT know a lot about the Good family, but do have some connections.

Thom, Thanks for this information. Not being from that area, my research is mostly done through writing I was unaware of a Frieden's Church with a cemetery in Rockingham. My George Good attended the Shenandoah Frieden's Church. I have never found his burial site. My George's parents were Samuel and Dorothy Good. I have only found them in the Shenandoah area and have no further clue as to the parents of Samuel and no maiden name for Dorothy. If you have any info on them it would be greatly appreciated.
