      Copy of Family Record of James Rader's Family:

      James Rader, born January 28th, 1782, died June 12th, 1839. Married Hannah Allen on June 6th, 1805. She was born January 19th, 1781, and died April 27th, 1861. Their children were:

      William Allen Rader, born April 8th, 1806, died June 23rd, 1860.

      Lizzie Allen, died April 3rd, 1860.

      Michael Campbell Rader, born November 29th, 1807, and died April 14th, 1880.

      John Rader, born November 26th, 1810, died April 15th, year not known.

      Robert Rader, born November 18th, 1812, died unmarried.

      Miriam Rader, born August 1st, 1816, died June 4rh, 1850.

      Edward Hart Rader, born April 14th, 1819, died October 31st, 1909.

      Emily Rader, born March 20th, 1822.

      James Miller Rader, born 1824, died 1842.

      James Rader married Hannah Allen, a daughter of William Allen, of Mason County. The latter is buried at the Rader graveyard, as is James Rader and his wife.

      Possibly the Lizzie Allen on the family record is the wife of William Allen.

      James Rader was wealthy and a man of influence in the county. He was a Justice of the Peace, and held other positions of trust.

      Of his children, there is no record of any marriage of William A., the oldest son.

      Robert and James M. died unmarried.

      Miriam married John A. Hyre. He was born December 20th, 1812, and died January 29th, 1852, aged thirty nine years.

      They lived on the Allen farm, and John Hyre of Frozen Camp is their son. Both are buried at the old Rader burying ground.

      Emily married Pleasant H. Thomasson, son of John P. Thomasson, and lived on Left Reedy.

      Dr. John Rader was a physician. He married Polly Ruddle, and lived on Frozen Camp, at the Sam Parsons place, afterward moved to Elk Fork.

      Some of his children, and probably his wife, are buried with him in the old graveyard on the Mackintosh farm.
