Israel Smith Geer + Orlinda Holcomb

Classification: Query
Surnames: Geer Holcomb
In my gr-grandfather's memoirs, he states that his parents are Israel Smith Geer and Orlinda Holcomb. I later found verification of this in the Geer Genealogy. The Geer Genealogy lists Timothy Holcomb and Ann Culver as the parents of Orlinda.
However, the Holcomb Genealogy at the DAR, does NOT list an Orlinda as a daughter of Timothy Holcomb and Ann Culver.
In his memoirs (Knyphausen Geer) also says that two of his gr-grandfathers fought in the Revolution. I have already established that both of them must have been on his maternal side, and thus I am anxious to 'prove' the lineage of Orlinda.
Do any other researchers who claim Israel Smith Geer and Orlinda Holcomb as ancestors have something to document this lineage other than the Geer Genealogy?
Thanks,
Karen
