Constance, I don't have much on the Shraders, except that my 3-great-aunt Mary Brumbaugh of the Greencastle, PA, area married Hamilton Hartman Shrader, who was born October 12, 1847. H.H. was the son of William and Lydia (Myers) Shrader of Greencastle R.R.4, according to the Brumbaugh genealogy of the early 1900s. My father's family grew up in Peters Township and had a close relationship with the Hamilton and Mary Shrader family.
