Mountain Rails of Old, third book in the Family History Mystery Series. Digger's mountain hides some aspects of its past. Rumor says it hosted a stop on the Underground Railroad, and it boasts remains of the first schoolhouse west of Cumberland. She never paid much attention to the abandoned cottage and its long-gone occupants until she accompanied her friend Marty, who wanted to photograph it for a potential news story. Everything changed when Uncle Benjamin made a huge discovery nearby. What really happened to Samantha and her ten-year old daughter fifteen years ago? If it hadn't been for a growling raccoon, Digger might not have tried to find out. Her friend Holly doesn't like the ancestors Digger found for her, and Marty thinks she's distanced herself rather than level with him about how she feels. She doesn't realize that her search for the waystation for escaping slaves will cross paths with efforts to bring Samantha home. And that path doesn't lead to a safe haven. Join Digger, Marty, and Uncle Benjamin as they sometimes operate at cross-purposes to solve old mysteries and unlock the mountain's secrets. Western Maryland at its elusive best.
