This is my Mary O'Barr also.The story I have runs almost identical to yours.I know that their father's name was Robert O'Barr.The story I have is that he met Mary Campbell while he was in Scotland, fell in love with her, and traveled back there to get her.She died first, and he died later, orphaning their three children, Mary, Robert and Daniel O'Barr.Apparently, Mary was apprenticing to make pins and wasn't happy with that.She talked her brothers into moving to America.I always guessed it was before the Revolutionary War, but don't have any proof.Would love to hear more history if you have it.Donna.
