to 1845) as well as grandson of John Friend Sr. (1728 to aft 1808), founder of
Friendsville, MD. Cornelius would travel to Ohio with his wife, but eventually
come back and settle in the Friendsville area, where he and his descendents
would have a profound influence upon the region. This book is the promised
