Witnesses are John Hume, Acrey Berry, Philip Chelf, Henry Lewis, Christopher Crigler, and one other (name undecipherable). According to the Garr Gen., page 521, John Clore had also another daughter, Margaret, not mentioned in the will, who md Leonard Crisler. John Clore had also a daughter Jemima who md John Stanciver (Steinsiffer). The Garr Genealogy is in error in assigning a daughter Elizabeth to John Clore, which Elizabeth is represented as marrying Harmon Wayman. Harmon (Herman?)

Of the remaining children of John Clore, Sr., Anna md William Wilhoit, a Garr descendant and his line is carried out in the Garr Genealogy; John Clore, Jr. , and Margaret Blankenbaker (a Garr descendant), daughter of Michael, son of Nicholas who died 1743. He left a large progeny fully treated in the Garr Genealogy. Mildred (daughter of John Clore, Sr.) md Samuel Yowell, George , (son of John Clore, Sr.) md Elizabeth Michael (son of John Clore, Sr.) will be treated below.
