Blooming Rose Church may be Methodist (I don't know) but the cemetery at Blooming Rose is not on Hoye's Road. There is another church at Hoyes (maybe Methodist) but when I checked the DAR Graves book Vol I for the Hoyes cemetery I didn't not find a grave listed for Wm. H. H. Friend born 1840.
This grave is not listed in the DAR book published 1987. It is in the new book, Vol. II published 2004. The last book is 8" by 10" spiral bound so I don't know if it will be available through public libraries as (probably) the first book (might be).

Glen,
You probably know this, but there were two William H.H. Friends from Allegany (Garrett) County, MD that both served in the 2nd PHB MD Infantry.
The first William was the son of Cornelius Ward FRIEND & Sarah Alice KEMP and the other William was the son of Son of Josiah Green FRIEND & Lavinia Kemp
Here's some clarification about their Civil War Records.

Notes Pat -Friend-Thompson~MD~ - Mar 29, 2005 Bob, I have this note about Wm. H. H. Friend (but Jo Friend -this site- knows more about him then me) Friend Newsletter Summer 1997: Heather McCracken states that from W. H. H. Friend's Pension record, filed by his widow, Mary Sines Friend, that he died February 21, 1885. She does note that this is a different death date then those previously documented in the FRIEND records. W. H. H. Friend is buried at the Turkeyneck Road Friend Cemetery, in Garrett County, MD but his stone does not have dates, only that he was in CO I, 2 P.H.B. MD Vol. Inf. in which he served from Oct. 25, 1861 to May 29, 1865. {From Heather: Affidavits completed for the Pension records state that Harrison was a healthy man when he left for military service, but returned a very sick man. He never totally recovered from his war injuries} (He was wounded at Missionary Ridge, Tennessee and was a prisoner at Andersonville).

Thanks Pat,
I think I now have it sorted out.
A few comments, - I have not seen a single record that gives a middle name or initial for Sarah Kemp (other than an undocumented family group sheet) - The W. H.H. Friend s/o CW Friend, was discharged from Co, D, 3rd PHB as a 1Lt (see p583) - The W. H.H. Friend, s/o Josiah was the private when discharged - According to Pat Thompson, William H. H. ("Turkey Bill") Friend, Jr., was b. 1871. - Do we have a third W. H.H. Friend in the 2nd PHB?
--------------------------
MD Archives, Vol.367, "History and Roster of Maryland Volunteers, War of 1861-6," Vol.1, Baltimore, MD: Geggenheimer, Weil Co, 1898.
p548, Second Regiment Potomac Home Brigade Infantry-Company B. Enlisted Men. Private, Wm. H. H. Friend, enlisted 31 Oct 1861, discharged 29 May 1865, Remarks, Veteran.
p565, Second Regiment Potomac Home Brigade Infantry-Company I. Enlisted Men. "Friend, William H. H. Private. Muster in: Oct. 31, 1861, Muster out: May 29, 1865, Remarks - Transferred to Company B; veteran"
p583. Third Regiment, Potomac Home Brigade Infantry-Company D, Commissioned Officers. "William H.H. Friend, 1st Lieut., Muster in: 31 Oct 1861, Muster out: 29 May 1865, Remarks: Entered the service as private, Company B, Second P.H.B. Infantry; promoted First Sergeant; Second Lieutenant, 23 Feb 1865; First Lieutenant, 6 Apr 1865; veteran." -------------------- William H.H. FRIEND , "I" Co., MD 2nd PHB Infantry {no dates}, (Govt. issue tombstone) -- Blooming Rose Cemetery.
William H.H. FRIEND , "B" Co., MD 2nd PHB Infantry, 1840-1919 (Govt. issue tombstone) - Turkey Cemetery. -------------------- And Pat Thompson found the following record.
Glades Star, The Garrett County Historical Society, Vol. 3, No. 5, (June 1961) p102: "FRIEND, Wm. Henry Harrison-Lt., Co. I, 2nd and Co. D, 3rd MD PHB. Inf. Sang Run. Veteran". (The only W. H.H. Friend listed)
Appearently this record has managed to combine both Wm H.H. Friends above.

Mercy! This IS confusing.
I tried to sort the Wm. H. H. Friends about 5 years ago, with the help of Ina Hicks and I “thought” I had them right but now I am confused all over again.
I have:
Wm. H. H. Friend 1837-1885, no nickname, son of Josiah G. and Lavina Kemp Friend. These are the Swanton Friends and since Turkeyneck (Friend Cem.) is only a few miles from Swanton, I think he is the one buried there. He married Mary Sines and she is buried at the Friend Cem., Turkeyneck Road. Mary’s stone reads Mary Friend, mother, 1848-1898.
Wm. H. H. Friend 1840-1919 if of the Friendsville Friends, Buried at Blooming Rose, near Friendsville. Nickname Squire. He was the son of Cornelius Ward and Sarah Kemp Friend. Mother’s of his children: Sarah Kelly, Jane Frances Friend, Missouri Phillippi. Had a son named Harry (1860-1952) with Sarah Kelly. Had a son, Wm. H. H. with Jane Frances. His step-son was Harry F. Phillipi (mother: Missouri Unknown)
Son of Squire above:
Wm. H. H. Friend 1871-1939 nickname Turkey Bill Married Effie Friend, both buried at Steele Cem., Friendsville, MD (I have his obit with hand written date of Jan. 4, 1948 – still a mystery why it has 1948)
From Pat Smith:
William H.H. FRIEND , "I" Co., MD 2nd PHB Infantry
a. Birth: Nov 1847 b. Death: February 21, 1885 c. Buried Friend Cemetery, Turkeyneck Road Garrett County, MD 1. Govt. issue tombstone inscription
e. Nickname: Turkey Bill Not Turkey Bill. This would be son of Josiah G. Friend (no nickname) and of the Swanton Friends. I don’t have any Wm. H. H. or Harry with dates of 1847-18851890 US Census: Special Schedule ED 109, Friendsville, Garrett Co., MD Friend House 108-109 Disability Com & Date of Date of Incurred & Name Rank Regt Enlist Disch PO Remarks
Mary- Pvt. Co. A, ------- ------ Swanton, Widow of 2nd PHB MD William H. (H.)
I still have questions too: Not only about the obit dated Jan. 4, 1948 but from the same obit, which says: “William H. Friend, son of the late William H. and Jane Frances Friend, Friendsville, was found dead by his wife last Friday morning at his home. He had been ill but a few days and had chosen to remain up Thursday night by the fire, where he evidently suffered a heart attack. His body lay between a chair and the stove in the living room. He was aged 69 years, nine months and four days.
His wife, who survives was before her marriage Mrs. Effie Friend, of Friendsville. Also surviving are a daughter, Mrs. Thelma Friend Gilleland and two grandchildren, Virginia and Tommy Gilleland, Hagerstown; five brothers and a sister; Ward and Walter Friend, Pittsburgh; Harry Friend, Sand Spring; Theodore and Percy Friend, Friendsville, and Mrs. Blanche Guard, of Pittsburgh."
I can’t account for THEODORE.
