Hello Folks:

I'm trying to verify that William O. RAILING (b.1865 d.1935) who married Nancy C. ALLEMAN (b.1871 d.1944) - both buried in Mongul United Brethren Church Cemetery, Lurgan Twp., Franklin Co., PA. - is the son of Martin and Sarah RAILING.

The following Census transcript is from the 1870 Lurgan Twp., Franklin Co., PA. Census - Page #2 - 5-Jul-1870 - PO Orrstown

RAILING Martin 44 Farmer RE$5000 PE$1200 b.PA
" " " Sarah 44 Keeping House b.PA can't read
" " " John 20 Farm Labor b.PA
" " " Luther 18 " " " " b.PA
" " " Sarah 14 at home b.PA attended school
" " " Susan 10 " " " b.PA " " " " "
" " " Otterbein 6 " " " b.PA
" " " Bella 3 " " " b.PA
[note: The son listed as Otterbein may in fact be William O. - see the 1880 Census below.]

The following Census transcript is from the 1880 Lurgan Twp., Franklin Co., PA Census - Page #14 - 1-Jun-1880

RAILING Martin 53 Farmer b.PA PA PA
" " " Sarah 53 wife Keeping House b.PA PA PA
" " " Susan 17 daughter at home b.PA PA PA
" " " William 13 son at home b.PA PA PA
" " " Fannie 10 daughter at home b.PA PA PA
" " " Cora 7 daughter at home b.PA PA PA

I am also looking to find parents of Sarah ALLEMAN RAILING and the maiden name of William O. RAILING's mother Sarah RAILING.

Thanks in advance for any help!
