Subject: Raymeyer's Hollow & Living Faith Farm

Let me start by saying that I came across your site today for the first time while trying to find information. I love what I have seen and read so far.

Anyway, when I was 10 years old my mother remarried. My stepfather's sister, who lived near us with her husband and 2 daughters, owned a farm (in Carroll County, MD). The house they bought was an old meeting house during the Civil War. The first floor's walls all folded back to open up as one large room. My (Step) Aunt was and antique collector and dealer and made many crafts. Many people came and went and many family members spent much time in the house... I could go on for hours over all of the stories. If interested check out "Ghosts and Haunted Houses of Maryland" their chapter is called 'A Householdful'. Anyway, ever since, I have been very intrigued by "true" stories that I could find, especially in Maryland. If anyone knows where I could fing helpful info please email me... especially places the you can visit and join tours.

Also, just recently I went to visit my uncle for the first time at his new house. He moved to PA. I don't visit PA all that much so you'll have to forgive me if I am not spelling some of the areas correctly. I know the from my directions to get there from MD, I went up 83N to the Shrewsbury/Stewartstown Exit and turned left... we went up, to I believe a stop sign at Church Avenue or Road and drove for a while, then at the end we turned right on another road on which his house is located. It is in a deep Valley and is known to him and his neighbors as Raymeyer's Hollow. I was trying to find out anything I can about the area and the history of the "legend" I just found out today about a book "The Hex" (I don't know the author) that is apparhently written about this area and it's activities. I would greatly appreciate any information you that anyone could provide. I am hoping to colaborate a collection of this information and words I have had with my uncle into an amature writing project for myself.

Thanking everyone in advance!!
