Levi Shrider, Perry Co., OH
My GG-grandfather was Peter Shrider, son of Fredrick and Christina Hertzog Shrider. Peter was the father of my G-grandfather, Levi, born October 30, 1830.This is what is listed in several different sources, as well as Levi's family bible, his death certificate and on his tombstone.There is a difference of opinion as to who Levi's mother was.It is known that Peter Shrider married Elizabeth Kalderman (Cotterman) in May 1831, six months after Levi's birth.On Levi's 1916 death certificate, filled out by my Grandfather, Whitmer Shrider, as mother he listed Catharine Ridenour.I have found a Ridenour family from Fairfield Co., which borders Perry Co., that moved to Allen Co., OH.Their daughter, Catharine, married a Peter Shroeder in 1829.According to a Ridenour researcher, Catharine died late in 1830.I would be interested in talking to anyone that may also be researching this line.Thanks.
