Hi. I was searching on Marrs, and found your query. You have Samuel Marrs listed... but I'm not sure who his connected to from your listing. I have both surnames (McClure and Marrs) in my family, and I have a Samuel Marrs who was in Augusta Co. VA in the late 1700's. Samuel Marrs was married to Francina Bradshaw, probably in Chanceford, PA. Let me know. Julie
