Tombstone inscriptions in cemetery of St. Stanislaus Kostka 
Catholic chapel, near Daniels, Maryland.

This chapel was struck by lightning and burned during the 1920s;
the ruins remain, along with a small, untended cemetery.  The 
town of Daniels itself was largely abandoned following the 1972 
flood caused by Tropical Storm Agnes.

These inscriptions were recorded on January 26, 2001.  Please note 
that the ground was snow-covered, and many stones have been broken 
off or toppled.  Some might have been covered by snow, in which case 
I missed them.  I will return after the thaw to record any stones I 
might have missed.

The stones:

TRISCHMANN

A large, toppled family stone (?) marked 'TRISCHMANN'.  The stone lies 
face up in the snow, and is covered in ice.  As far as I could tell, 
the name is the only inscription, but I will verify this on my return.

At the foot of this stone are two smaller stones marked as follows:

COSTELLO

There is a seemingly out-of-place, metal marker stuck in the 
ground, perhaps to mark the reburial of someone, as the marker 
appears brand new.

1895-1940

OTHER STONES

There are two apparently oldered stones along a path leading away 
from the other stones.  One is marked in part:

Mary K.
Daughter of ______
___________
died _______

The other is totally illegible to me.

There are also a number of broken off smaller stones.  I assume these 
to be either footstones or markers for infants.  One is marked 'M.E.C.' 
and another 'L.C.H.'
