I'm having some luck. I have now found Lizzie Brahm (not Braham as I thought) Freeland's parents having gone from PA to Terra Alta to Fairmont. No wonder I couldn't find them! Lizzie Freeland and her sister, Arminta Brahm Messenger are buried in Terra Alta cemetery. Does anyone know if there are any records from the cemetery? Still need a death certificate or more info on my Lizzie, my great grandmother. Thanks. Beverly
