Hi Bettianne and All, My Bruce line was in the IN and KY area. I have very very little on this Bruce line as you can see. I also doubt that his first name was Sparks, probably a nickname. What time period do you have listed below? Tom Runyan Descendants of Sparks Bruce 1 Sparks Bruce b: April 11, 1854 d: April 8, 1938 Age at death: 83 .. +Nancy Runyan b: December 19, 1857 in Indiana d: December 23, 1936 Age at death: 79 ......... 2 Earl Bruce ......... 2 Grace Bruce ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bettianne Sweeney" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: March 13, 2002 12:55 PM Subject: Re: BRUCE-D Digest V02 #16 My John Bruce died in Elizabethtown, Ky. I believe. His wife was Elizabeth, I thought Hamilton. She died in Mississippi. They were from Maryland (Census). Some of his children were Eleanor Bruce married Wilson Burton, Williamson Bruce and John Bruce and others. All went to Wilkinson Co., Mississippi. Are we related.
