Levi S. Srader

Surnames: Srader, Shrader, Kimbler, Rickabaugh
I've been looking for my ancestor Joseph P. Srader for a long time with no success until recently when I found that his parents were Samuel (Levi) Shrader and Hannah Kimbler. They were married in 1834 in Wythe Co., VA. They left VA and went to IN probably around 1840. I have recently been given a letter written by Levi to his brother, John in VA in 1870 from TX. I believe he settled in Cherokee county because the obituary of his son, J.M. Srader says he was born in ALto, Cherokee Co, TX.
Levi and Hannah had 4 children that I know about. They were Joseph P., John, Margaret and Stephen.
One of my problems in tracking down this family is that they spelled their name Shrader in VA and dropped the H for some reason later.
I'm also wondering if Hannah was a first wife for Levi. Does anyone have information about him? Also, does anyone have the name of Hannah's mother?
