There are numerous ORR lines in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina.  My ancestor was known as James "Whistling" Orr in the early Mecklenburg County tax rolls.  This was in order to distinguish him from James "Jockey" Orr and James "heretick" Orr, contemporaries who lived in the same district.
The family tradition is that ancestor James Orr was born in Antrim County in Ireland, of Scottish ancestry.  An early Mecklenburg County, NC deed refers to him as "James Orr late of Pennsylvania, weaver."  Thus, we know his profession.
James Orr settled in the Goose Creek Township of what is now Union County, North Carolina.  He was a private in Captain Charles Polk's regiment during the American Revolutionary War.  He married first to Sarah McConnell in 1770.  They had six sons before Sarah died in 1783.
