If you have a Civil War Ancestor I would suggest you check out this book by William Dollarhide entitled Genealogical Rsources of the Civil War Era.
The book was published by Family Roots Publishing Company.

It is well worth it…

Here is a list of cool genealogy sites to surf for possible new information on your Maryland ancestor….
www.genealogybank.com ~ collections of newspapers from the colonial period to now… Frequent updates to the SSDI (Social SecurityDeath Index) and much more…. There are numerous Maryland Newspapers among its collections. (Note: This is a paid site)
www.footnote.com ~ Footnote is another cool site to look at… If you have any Maryland ancestors or from other states with regards to Revolutionary War Pensions, City Directories, Naturalizations and much more. (Note: This is a paid site)
www.ancestry.com ~ Ancestry has a lot of information as well. (Note: This is a paid site)
and many more to come…..
Kathy – I would look at F. Edward Wright’s book on Maryland Militia, War of 1812, Vol. 3 – Cecil and Harford Counties. That gives in detail about the different Militia companies that were in Cecil and Harford Counties.
As for the Barnes & Bailey Cemetery aka Coen Hill Cemetery off of Earlton Road in Havre de Grace, Maryland I do have some pictures…. That came from a descendant of one of the families that is buried there.

Do you know of an endangered cemetery in Maryland cemetery? I would like to hear from you….
Our ancestors that came before us all have their own story to tell. It is up to us as their descendants to tell their story.
