    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Author: robinjopmoore Surnames: Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.northcarolina.counties.johnston/5106/mb.ashx Message Board Post: I'm trying to find any information at all about Robert Orr who appears to be the progenitor of most of the Orr's in southeastern NC. The earliest record concerning him located thus far is in a Johnston County deed book in which we find land transactions between Robert Orr and Reuben Hunter. Robert Orr sold Reuben Hunter a plot of land on 10 November 1761 which had been earlier granted to Robert Orr by the province of NC. Reuben Hunter later sold to Robert Orr land on the 27th March 1765. That is the sum total of my knowledge of him. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Robin Moore Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
