About The Author

Patrick Palmer has been involved in genealogy since the eighth grade and continues "digging" for his roots.  In the last several years, he has been contacted by many people who have relatives associated with the Ghost Town of Maysville.  Through his work at the Maysville Cemetery, he has restored over 25 stones and has done extensive research on the town and its people.  Instead of writing a book about Maysville, Pat realized that the information would constantly need to be updated, so the internet was the solution.  Pat welcomes any and all suggestions about the site and especially welcomes any other facts associated with the town of Maysville.  Please send correspondence to the following address:
