On a related note, I just got an Interlibrary loaned copy of: The Tenmile Country and Its Pioneer Families A Genealogical History of the Upper Monongahela Valley by Howard L. Leckey This is a terrific resource - especially if you happen to hook-up with one of the many families who are documented in the book. There are hundreds of "Pioneer Family" surnames listed in the index. "The Tenmile Country . . ." contains a fairly brief history of pioneer migrations in the 18th century - helpful, but I wish Leckey would have spent more time on this. Most of the book is the actual documentation of families that lived in the Upper Monongahela Valley. I should have the book 2 more weeks if someone wants to check with me on a surname.
