My great grandfather was Morris Cramer ROY, b 1857 in Lancaster to John Howard ROY and Elizabeth LEONARD ROY. I have always wondered where his middle name came from. I have speculated that Morris CRAMER was important to the family in some way but have never found any person that might qualify. Any knowledge of any Morris Cramer in the Lancaster area during that era would be very much appreciated.
