>My tie to > the Orr family is through one of Samuel's nieces marrying a Cooperrider from > Perry County. I don't have any info on Samuel's family. Ah, Gary ... would your Cooperriders happen to include Catherine, d/o John COOPERIDER and Catherine WALSER, married to Adam EIS? Or William COOPERIDER, s/o Abraham COOPERIDER and Rosanna HOWELL, m Catherine RUSLER? I do have bits and pieces from the Cooperider book but keep searching for anyone who may have information on the RUSLER and EIS families or descendants of the above. Sandy
