Greetings! Just a thought...could either of these Spies-Spees soldiers be my missing Spiceland? I have come up with a Heiko Spiceland living in North Carolina in the early 1780's, but still no link to the Hessian soldier the family stories tell of. Jan Bartee Walker

Hello Jan Bartee Walker; You remember my posting to this list of June 11, 2001, which was the result of many hours of research on my part. Unfortunately, 3 years have gone by and we have not been able to get over this brickwall. No new leads. Your theory may be correct, but how can we be sure? You have to keep digging in local sources to find that one piece of the puzzle. The County records of the first place you found his name is the one to dig in and look at everything.
