George Griste is the 8th name on the list, and John Bradner is the 9th.
Obadiah Taylor appears farther along, followed by John Griste.There
may be no significance to the order of signing, but it is interesting
that George Griste's wife is named Loice Bradner, and John is the only Bradner
in Luzerne County.
