Western Maryland Catholics, 1819-1851

This is a collection of birth, baptismal, marriage, and death records for the parishes of St.Ignatius in Mt. Savage, and St. Mary's in Cumberland, Maryland. As such it makes available many of the oldest extant genealogical records for Catholics in Allegany County. An outgrowth of the authors' "St. Ignatius and St. Mary," this book incorporates all of the data from that work and is six times longer.
