June, Thank you so much for the info, have most of it, but, only did the gen. shown. I got the "Orilla" from some Geer desc. records. (anyone wants Geer, have a humongous file) Actually, Rilla is a common nickname for Orilla, which seemed to be a name that enjoyed a brief popularity / useage, / faded away. Here I am in NC--the daughter of the woman owned this house before me? "Rilla"--Orilla--she's 60ish? and doesn't like her name. Said the Orilla she was named for used Lilly"--- all of whichmakes our searches more fun????????? My own Grandmother had one similar, Ora--- You and I corresponded before, some while back. Tentatively, I may have partially solved the Wainwright line. A real bear. Thanks again for taking time to ensure the correct info is out there. Sheila/Firehair
