[edit] More notes

Following the Indian Trail of the same name, Glades Road was completed in 1772 and led from Bedford to Somerset. The road became modern day PA Route 31, went through the towns of Mount Pleasant, West Newton, Monongahela, and Washington that had organized underground railroads.^[1] -- JA10 ^{T · C} 05:56, 9 May 2007 (UTC)

Somerset, the county seat, was laid out in 1795, incorporated as a borough on March 5, 1804 and was located on the turnpike road leading from Bedford to Pittsburgh, now known at Route 31.
