This has a very short piece about Abbotts Creek, which says that James Younger (the unordained Baptist preacher), migrated from the Welsh neck church in Pennsylvania and settled in Abbotts Creek. If this is true, James Younger could have came first from Maryland or Pennsylvania or that general area. I thought this might be interesting reading for some. It maps out some migration trails and talks a little about the people who used those trails. Even more interesting is the background concerning Daniel Marshall. It gives a little background about Daniel Marshall quite a bit before the piece on Abbotts Creek. How he was excommunicated and banished for preaching Baptist beliefs in his established church. His sister was jailed and his poor wife grew ill and died. Anyway, some may find it interesting. Some may not. Just thought Id toss it out there. Betty
