In Response To: STRADER / REICHARD / KING (Andrea K. (Strader) Dougan)

This may be the family of the Levi Strader that you have. Malinda Strader had a brother, Levi.
My 2nd great grandfather, David Lair (of Frenchtown, N. J.) went to Darke County, OH ca. 1857 and m. #1 Malinda Strader. Some time between 1858 and 1860 she died, and he m. #2, my 2nd great-grandmother, Sarah Ann Catherine Rodabaugh. He left the following Strader information copied in his bible. I copied it by hand in Oct. 1960. Unfortunately, the bible, which was then in the possession of my great-aunt, Mrs. Lea Hoffman, 1211 Baden, St. Louis, MO., has since disappeared and my aunt has died. Her daughter has no idea what happened to the bible. I suspect my aunt may have given it to a family member before her passing, but cannot find it. Here is what David wrote:
Jacob Strader was m. to Miss Elizabeth Cooper 24 Dec. 1835, dau. of Peter and Clarry (Clara?) Cooper.
David Lair m. Malinda Strader 6 Feb. 1858, dau. of Jacob & Elizabeth Strader.
Simeon Rodabaugh m. Lucinda Strader the 28th of Jan. 1858, dau. of Jacob & Elizabeth Strader.
Johnathon (sp) Stager m. Barbara Strader 31 May 1858, dau. Jacob & Elizabeth Strader.
Malinda Strader born 29 March, 1837
Lusety (Lucetta or Lucettia, I believe) Strader born 25 (?) March 1858. Not sure of the 5; it might have been a 2 or 3.)
Jacob Strader born: 11 October 1815
Elizabeth Cooper born: 12 September 1820
The rest of the entries are for Lair/Rodabaugh/Pitsenbarger members. I believe my grandfather's entries are correct. He was very educated for those times and had beautiful handwriting. As you can see, Malinda's mother's maiden name was to the best of David's knowledge: Cooper.
