Elias Ringer dead end

I'm still trying to determine who Elias Ringer's (born 1807 in Maryland) parents and/or siblings were. So far... not much luck. I recently discovered a few legal documents relating to Elias Ringer that I hoped might help.

The first is a sale of property from Elias Ringer and and his wife Mary & Samuel Ringer and his wife Eva to Peter Ringer. The sale is for a piece of property consisting of 142 3/4 acres for the price of $2000. It is dated April 9, 1859. I'm guessing that Samuel and Elias were brothers as Samuel was born in 1804 and Elias in 1807 and both married in 1833. However, I haven't been able to confirm that or to find any additional records on Samuel. Hopefully I can unearth an obituary for Samuel one of these days that will help me.

As to who Peter was, I have no idea. I'm guessing a relative of some sort, but who knows? There were several Peter's in the area at the time, but which one was it?

There is another deed of title that shows Elias purchasing 133 1/16 acres of land in 1854 from an Alex Neil for the price of $2,600. I'm wondering if this is the property that was listed in the advertisement that I just posted earlier today? It's about 5 acres short, but possibly he bought up 5 more acres over the 35 years in between the purchase and sale? There is a legal description of the property in the recording, but the copy I have is very difficult to read.

Finally, I have one more deed of sale showing Elias purchased, in 1838, for the sum of $40, from an Emmanuel Titlow, "... one Cow, one Stove and pipe, two beds and bedding, six chairs, one bureau, three hogs. two tables, one silver watch, and one wheelbarrow..." About that time period the newspapers show many people selling much of what they had to "go west." Hopefully he got a good deal!

All in all some good information on who Elias was and what he did in his life, but little to go on that will helped me to understand who his parents and/or siblings were. I'll keep digging...
