Hello everyone! I am new to this list and hope I can connect with some Wake County ORR FAMILY researchers. My direct line goes as far back as Alexander ORR, per LDS records born in 1761, and his wife Martha. I believe our Alexander ORR is one of the three ORR's who traveled to Kentucky and settled in the Christian and Caldwell Co of Kentucky. Alexander ORR, Robert ORR and William ORR are found as early as 1799 on the Christian Co KY tax lists. Where did these ORR families come from? Records indicate that the marriage of Alexander ORR's daughter Elizabeth ORR to John LAUGHLIN occurred in SC. Oral family history states that our ancestors were 'cousins' to Gov James L ORR of SC (who I understand descends from Robert ORR of Wake Co). Alexander's son Hugh ORR was born in North Carolina according to census record of his son William ORR. Another ORR researcher in Mecklenburg Co NC suggested that the Robert ORR family of Wake Co NC would be a possibility, as she was certain we did not belong to her ORR's. Please contact me if anyone can clarify this Wake Co NC ORR family. I would sincerely appreciate any responses with information or suggestions. Sincerely, Nancy Orr-Erb
