Posted on: Mineral County Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/WV/Mineral~/227 Surname: ------------------------- Mineral Co. as well as Allegany/Garrett Co. probably had many families associated with the B&O RR. My ggrandfather helped lay track and later my grandfather and other men in the family worked for the railroad too. Mount Savage, Luke and Bloomington are towns that grew up along the RR tracks. Did Michael Kearney work for the B&O? My ggrandfather Michael came from Galway in 1850. Do you know where Michael Kearney emigrated from? Lois Zelina
