I am sure you will get many replies to your questions. My great grandfather came from the
Little Gunpowder area - which at that time consisted of the area around Fullerton,
Overlea, Rosedale, Gardenville, etc. This area is just outside of Baltimore City limits.
If you know the exact date of death of a person you can email Enoch Pratt Free Library
and they will lookup the obit and send you a copy. That way you will have some general
idea of the exact area you are searching. Good Luck.

Subject: [MDGEN] Little Gunpowder Census
Greetings All
I am having trouble finding information for my Great Grand Parents "Phillip
and Julia Hummel". I found both of them and their children in the 1870
census and Julia and her children in the 1880 census. Phillip I guess died
before 1880.
The census was taken in the 12th District of Baltimore County - Post Office
Little Gunpowder for 1870 census. The 1880 census was 12th District of
Baltimore County - 253 enumeration district.
I am trying to find where they would have lived. I am trying to find where
they would have been buried and maybe a church with some records for births
and marriages.
Any help would be appreciated.
