I have asked in several queries elsewhere but I don't think I posted it here, but if I did, please disregard! Was Berkeley County on some major migration trail? So far I have run into three of my family surnames that have lived there. What's the odds of that? Two of the families were first in PA then Berkeley County then by some fate all ended up in Kentucky. Pam

You can drive the road that this trail followed yet today. We travel a portion of this road when going to Shockeysville for our Shockey reunions. With the new Postal addresses to use with 911 they tried to rename the road but I understand many people in the area have fought the change. Les Shockey
