Thank you for your reply, but I believe that my grandfather (Earl L. Core) incorrectly stated that Christopher Core was the son of John Kohr of Lancaster Co., PA. I have copies of the wills of John Kohr (Core) and John Christian Kohr (Core), both of whom died in Washington Co., MD in the late 1700's. Neither had a son named Christopher. I believe that my Christopher was the son of George Core, who lived in Hampshire Co., VA in the 1770's, and probably died in Monongalia County ca. 1778. Other siblings were Henry and John Core of Fayette Co., PA, and Michael Core of Monongalia Co., WV. I somehow feel like my Cores are related to the Kohrs of Lancaster County, but there is absolutely no evidence to support this hypothesis.

Thanks for your response,

Brian Core
