    Frostburg soldiers met Indian brides
    Together, they carved out a farm
    BETTY (CUTTER) SANTOS Frostburg
    My mother told me once that I have 25 percent Indian blood in me. My mother’s maiden name was Rhoda Victoria McKenzie. She married my father, George Cutter of Midlothian. My two great-grandmothers were Indians from the Pamunkey Reservation between the James and Pamunkey rivers in Virginia. They were descendants of the Powhatan Tribe, whose chief was the father of Pocahontas, 10 generations away. My two great-grandfathers were Jacob Minick, a German, and Jacob Patrick McKenzie, a Scot, both from the Frostburg area. The were timbermen, working in the forest around Avilton and Finzel in the 1850s. When the Civil War broke out, my two great-grandfathers joined the Union Army and fought in Virginia. They participated in the capture of Richmond in 1865. When the war ended they visited the Pamunkey Reservation on their time off and saw that the Indians, who remained neutral during the fighting, had suffered a great deal and were fed and clothed by the Northern soldiers. There, the two Frostburg area troopers met their future brides. Their names were Anna Rainer, an Indian princess, and Fannie Ann Christner, a squaw. Both couples moved to the Frostburg area in 1866, coming here by rail from Richmond on the Orange & Alexandria Railroad, and to Washington to Baltimore to Cumberland on the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad. In Cumberland they bought two covered wagons, two teams of horses and supplies and headed for Avilton, then known as McKenzie’s Settlement. The two men each received 50 acres of land for their Army service. They carved out a farm by cutting down trees and building a log cabin. Both couples were married March 12, 1866, at St. Michael’s Church in Frostburg by Pastor William O’Connor. Jacob Minick and Anna (Rainer) Minick had 16 children, while Jacob Patrick McKenzie and Fannie Ann (Christner) McKenzie had 12 children. Both Jacob Minick and Jacob McKenzie helped build St. Ann Catholic church in Avilton in 1874. They and their wives are buried at the St. Ann Cemetery. One of the Minick children, Mary Ellen Minick, a half-breed, and one of the McKenzie children, John William, were both born the same year, 1886, in McKenzie’s Settlement. They grew up together and eventually married at the same church in Frostburg in 1905. They had nine children, one of whom, Rhoda Victoria McKenzie, later became my mother. At the age of 18, she married George Cutter of Midlothian. They had three children, of which I was one. I married Albert L. Raley Sr. and had five children. When Albert died, I married Tony Santos Sr., my next-door friend. Published in the Cumberland Times-News on March 31, 1998
