The information you supplied re: two Rausch Creeks and two Rausch Gaps certainly was most interesting to me.Now I am more confussed than ever regarding my ancestor John Wendling who supposedly was born in Rausch Creek, PA.His obit in Schuylkill Co PA said that he had lived all his life in the "west end".Now instead of looking for one Rausch Creek, I get to check out two! Oh, the joys of research.
Now regarding John M. Dixon's working for the Rail Road:In the 1890 Schuylkill Co PA Census Directory for Tremont Borough, page 948, John Dixon is listed as a "repairer on the Rail Road".I assume this means he worked for the Rail Road.Hope this is helpful.
