HORR & LEWENTHAL
COUNSELORS AT LAW
1513 WILLIAMSON BUILDING
CLEVELAND, OHI)
February the 14th, 1907
Mrs. Olive Horr Starr,
36 E. Central Ave.,
Delaware, O.
Dear Mrs. Starr:
I am preparing copy to print a genealogy of the descendants of
Hezekiah Horr of Taunton, Mass., and before closing the work have made an
effort to include as many of his descendants as I could trace. Thinking
that Robert H. Horr, formally of Grand Rapids now of Enterprise, Miss.,
might belong to that family, I wrote to him. He tells me that his grand-
father was Francis T. Horr who married Ruth Darby Allen; that they lived
in Delaware, and he refers me to you for further information.
If you have any knowledge of your ancestors back to Francis T.
Horr, please give me their names and places of residence. Perhaps I can
connect them with one of the older families whose records I have. I also
wish to know whether you ever heard of a man named James Horr
who was born in Delaware County about ninety-seven years ago. His father,
Josiah Horr, is said to have come from Massachusetts. My informant who
is somewhat illiterate states that James Horr had in Delaware County
four brothers and two sisters, viz: Josiah, John, Francis and Joseph; and
Lucy and Olive. I suspect that my informant, Nathan Horr of Kansas City,
Kansas, is one of your relations. And that his grandfather Francis was
a brother of your grandfather.
Any information you can give me will be very acceptable and I
would like to have it as soon as possible. Very truly yours, (signed) Norton T. Horr
