  • Notes 
    • According to Robert L. Winder (Sep 2000):
      Susannah Winder, born about 1750, who died 11 April 1844. She is identified by her grave marker in Funkstown Cemetery as the wife of John Orr and the daughter of James Winder. Her brother Daniel identified her as the wife of George Orr in his will. Papers filed in the chancery suit of 1804 recite her married name as "Orr", but claim "she is of parts unknown", so that she was not joined in the chancery action
