I know a fair amount about the Ward family in the area but nothing about
that particular Samuel Ward. If anyone has an answer, would they please make
sure they post it to the list?
Thanks!

Fred,
I don't know anything about the church but, Bull Frog is on 213 next to
"Sarge's Market". You've probably seen the road sign there?

Subject: [MDCECIL] Universalist Church in Cecil County
> I'm researching the Universalist Church that was located on Route 213
between Elkton and Chesapeake City. It appears to have been dedicated in
1852. When the property was turned into a home in the early 1900's, the few
remaining tombstones were evidently buried and the cemetery made into a
garden. Cecil Whig obits indicate that among those who had been buried
there are Mrs. Eliza HUTTON (widow of Fergus Hutton), buried in May 1882 and
Samuel WARD, buried in March of 1879 (his obit mentions that the church was
near a place called "The Bull Frog"). Another former member was David M.
TAYLOR, who switched to the Protestant Episcopal faith prior to his death in
May of 1882.
