Actually, we hardly encountered any at all out by Lancaster...I was surprised! I see more of them around here....I live about 1/2 hr SW-ish of Harrisburg.

Lemme tell ya...it takes some getting used to! The roads here are so freaking narrow and it's quite the surprise when you come up over a hill and have to slam on the brakes to avoid pegging off a buggy.

Wow, too coincidental, thats 3 of us who live or lived near underground railroads.

No one knows if they were Indians. They found one and it made a huge deal in the newspaper and then they continued to dig to build and more and more bodies were found that were just randomly burried -not like a cemetary- and the bodies had been burried in blankets. The ground around here is like clay so it's pretty preservative.
