Hi, I don't know if there is any connection,but my family is a mystery so I am checking everything. I have pictures(no names) from several different areas of Pa.,including Lycoming. I found out I still have family in Pa. My part of the family moved to Ohio and settled in Licking Co. Through Civil War pension court depositions I found that the family member(my gr.gr. grandfather) who went by his middle name Henry, was born with the name William Henry. The early census in Ohio spelled the last name Lore but it got changed to Loar and then in 1880 after William's death, changed again to Loher. I can give more info, Please contact me if you think there might be a connection. Shelmaya@aol.com
