How wonderful to have found you and all the info that you have supplied. I had not been able to find the death date for Rebecca and when I had the chance to go to the Piney Plains cemetery I didn't find her stone but I did see the first wife's stone etc. I never knew if Rebecca had married Nathen or not, no record that I could find. I do have a good photo of her with Joseph Norris and their daughter Annabelle that they named after his first wife and my Great-grandmother. Annabelle Lehman Norris died about 1881 when the children were very young. My Grand-father, Albert Norris ran away when he was 5 and lived with the Hartley family until he was 18. He didn't like his step-mother then but later they all moved to Garrett, Somerset Co., Pa. where they were coal miners. I'll see if I have any Trail info you might be interested in. I can tell you that I have a book on Allegany Co., Md. rural cemeteries and I found it interesting that there are no Trails listed in any of the cemeteries in the Little Orleans/Piney Plains area. I live in Texas so I know what searching from afar is like. I was born at the bottom of Sidling Hill Mountain on route 40 where my parents had a resturant in the early 30-40's. They knew Nathen very well. I'll email you with what I find. Thanks so much for the dates on Rebecca. Lois
