    3. Thanks, everyone for the info you sent me on the Purgett family. Many of the Purgetts from Purgittsville stayed in the area Mary married a Recor, Elizabeth married a Schoemaker and Rachel married Henry Sulser(Suber) Aug.15,1825. William got the property after Henrys death and Frederick married Mollie Schoemaker and moved to Ohio. The younger Henry, I think moved to Pickaway Co., Ohio. There was a William S. Purgett who ran the post office in New Creek in 1865 and his daughter Kate was postmistress of Purgittsville for a long time . Don't have dates or how related for sure . There is a Dow Purgett who owns an old school house neer Purgittsville. Don't know if he is still alive. Thanks again Diane Kleinke (Purgett)
