You might look for Brallier in Somerset Co. PA also. Seems I have seen that
name there. I recently met a cousin, Ted Brallier. He is 83 and lives in
St. Augustine. The Bralliers married into my family some time ago. They all
seemed to come from the same area - Somerset co. to Ohio to Indiana.
Traditionally they are Brethren.
