I have traced the Ridinger family back to Peter 1793-1842 who married Catherine Shriner 1797-1874 but am STUCK on Peter's family.

Who were his parents, siblings, etc.?

Peter is buried in the German Reformed Cemetery in Taneytown; he was a farmer, left a will (everything to his wife!) but no clues as to where he was born or who his parents were.

Any suggestions?
