Have you tried sending for the obituary** on Priscilla Orentha Songer Williams McGath to see if any siblings are mentioned? Though her birthdate varies in the records, I had guessed that she fit as the Priscilla mentioned as d/o Adam Songer and Rachael Eacret. Now that makes even more sense to me as I recently noticed that another researcher shows that Priscilla was living in Piatt Co IL in the early 1900's -- we know that Rachael Eacret Songer was living in Piatt County (Mansfield PO) ca 1905.
