Directions By Kenneth O'Neal
To find the Old frame Church and the O'Neal Reunion, first travel to the Town of Everett, Pa. It is located just off the Pa Turnpike between the Breezewood and the Bedford Exits. If coming from the East, get off at the Breezewood Exit, and from the West, get off at the Bedford Exit. From the Turnoike get on Rt 30 and travel to Everett.  At Everett take Rt 26 South about 9 miles. Just as you see the sign for Clearville, turn right onto Chaneyville Road. Continue about 4 miles to the top of a hill and turn right onto Frame Church Road. The Church and Cemetery is about 3 miles on the right, and the reunion will be held on the opposite side of the road. Ken says that if you have trouble with finding your way, just ask for directions for the Frame Church, since most of the local rewsidents know where it is.
