The "General Highway Map, Pendleton County, WV" produced by the WV Dept. of Highways, Sheet 2 of 3, shows a cemetery on the east side of Buffalo Hills Road slightly closer to Hwy 33 than halfway between Hwy 33 and the other end of Buffalo Hills Road where it ends at Hwy 10, Reed's Creek Road. My family of Haiglers and Bibles lived in this approx. area as did the daughters who got land from their fathers, the Smiths and Blands.

Karen, Possibly the link to this map will help: http://www.topozone.com/map.asp?z=17&n=4285315&e=645201&s=50&size=l Be sure all of the characters in this link are copied, you may even need to 'type' the entire hyperlink into your browser, if clicking it doesn't work. It appears that the Ruddle Church cemetery west of Ruddle may be the one you are wanting. If not, the cemetery down Wyatt Run Road south of there may be it. Otherwise, try moving the center of the map further south to see other cemeteries to the east side of Buffalo Hills Road, and switch between 1:50000 and 1:25000 resolution. These topozone.com maps developed from US Geological Survey maps are really helpful (3" per mile scale at widest zoom, wow.) The predominant names of the runs, back roads and creeks at the first map location (near Ruddle) indicate to me that you need to be searching a little further south on Buffalo Hills Road for 'your' names....just a thought....?? You can try the map at: http://terraserver-usa.com/image.aspx?t=2&s=14&x=201&y=1338&z=17&w=1 to get aerial photos in addition to large scale maps. Btw, your CRESAP name really intrigues me, you and/or your husband have a very interesting surname history in the American colonies. Hope this helps. My first time here, regards to all.

Nedra, Pauline said it was near the Beulah Bible place, the other side of the road.
