I have hit the mother of all brick walls in attempting to locate the marriage and/or origins of William Tarr/Torr/Toor. He was listed on the 1782-89 Tax list for Frederick County and was paid for ferrying troops across the Shenandoah River in 1783. So I know he was there. His son, William gave the Shenandoah Valley as his birthplace in his bounty land application, and I believe all of William I's children were born in this area. William(I) married Elizabeth Crawford about 1775. They moved on to Shelby County Kentucky in 1792-93. How on earth could they have left so little trace? Has anyone seen this name mentioned in Frederick County.....ever? Appreciate any assistance on this maddening problem. Jane Sarles
