I have traced likely relatives of mine to Frostburg too.Eliza Vaughan/Vaugn born 1820 in Whitecroft, married William Bowen born 1816 Parkend, both died in 1896 in Frostburg. They had 14 children and emigrated to the USA at some point after they married and before they had their first child in 1841. They married in January 1840 (in both the C of E and R.C.) in Newland. One of their children married someone called Gunter, again likely to be from a Forest of Dean family. Eliza Vaughan is also likely to be related to people who married into the Kear family in the FoD.

Are these related to this family? If not was the community in Frostburg chiefly from the FoD? William is listed as a miner.
