Yes, Kermit was a relative of mine. We are descendants of Stephen and Catherine Weedon of
Frederick County, Maryland. Their children's names were: John T., Joseph, George,
Jefferson, Alfred, Harriet and Henry. They came north and settle and raised their
families in Sunnyside, Hopehill, Buckeystown and Frederick. The brothers were freed from
slavery after serving in the Civil War. Henry also brought one of his son's along
with him, his name was Jacob. They were fair skinned blacks. We are not sure how the
sister got here, however, we know she did and we still today get together for reunions
Labor Day weekend in Frederick. For further information drop me a email.
