DON;I FEEL LIKE I AM WRITING TO MYSELF AS I AM DONALD R AND YOU ARE DONALD L..AS TO THE DIFFERENCE IN OUR LAST NAMES.MY BROTHERS ARE ALSO ODER!S.AS WERE ABOUT HALF OF THE JOSEPH
ODOR LINEAGE.NO I DON!T HAVE ANY INFO THAT
WE ARE DESCENDED FROM THAT FRENCH COURTIER.
AS YOU COULD READ FROM GWEN OLIVER MESSAGES
ANOTHER POSSIBILITY IS THAT SERVANT WHO CAME TO THE COLONIES ABOUT 1676 ABOARD THE SUCCESS
FROM LONDON AS A SERVANT TO A MR.MOORE.HIS NAME WAS THOMAS ODOR.THEY LANDED IN NEW SALEM
BUT THATS ALL I KNOW ABOUT HIM.THERE IS ALSO
ON THE MESSAGE BOARD A STORY ABOUT A FRENCH
SEA CAPTAIN WHO SETTLED IN MARYLAND.I DOWNLOADED THE MESSAGE BUT I DON!T KNOW WHERE ITS AT RIGHT NOW.THATS ABOUT THE ONLY CLUES THAT I HAVE AS TO A POSSIBLE FRENCH
CONNECTION OR ENGLISH.BUT AS WAS THE CUSTOM
OF THOSE DAYS THE FIRST BOEN SON IS NAMED AFTER THE PATERNAL GRANDFATHER,AND I THINK JOSPH ODOR FOLLOWED THAT PRATICE AS HIS FIRST BORN WAS NAMED JOSEPH AND I BELEIVE IT WAS NAMED FOR HIS FATHER NOT HIM.AS ANOTHER
SON WOULD BE NAMED AFTER THE FATHER.SO I AM
KINDA ON THE LOOKOUT FOR A JOSEPH ODOR ANCESTOR FOR JOSEPH ODOR OF FAQUIER VA,BY THE
WAY ARE YOU CONNECTED TO MY G.G.G UNCLE JOSEPH OF HARRISON CO.KY,WHO WAS IN GEO.WASHINGTONS ARMY AT YOKTOWN WHEN THE BRITISH SURRENDERED.?HE HAD 13 CHILDREN (WITH
A LITTLE HELP FROM HIS WIFE)IF NOT LET ME KNOW AND I WILL SEND YOU SOME INTERESTING INFO ABOUT THE KY BRANCH OF THE ODORS.I HAVE
NOT HEARD ABOUT THE IND BRANCH OF THE ODORS/ODERS.MY LINE GOES FROM SECOND SON THOMAS/GABRIEL/ALBERT/ALEXANDER AND MY FATHER
ERNEST.MY GRANDFATHER ALEX MOVED TO MO.AFTER THE CIVIL WAR FROM KY.MOST OF MY ANCESTORS WERE FROM GARRARD CO.KY.I WAS RAISED IN MO.AND HAVE NEVER BEEN IN KY.ALL AROUND IT BUT NOT IN IT.WELL THIS DOSN!T HELP YOU WITH
THE FRENCH CONNECTION BUT THEN IT HAS STOPED
ME TOO.WELL WHEN YOU GET OLDER YOU TALK AND WRITE TOO LONG SO I WILL STOP ON THAT.MY E-MAIL ADDRESS IS BELOW.
