There was a Benj. Spelts who wound up in AR in whose family was a Pleasant who served in the Civil War. Is this your guy? I think my Pelts family of Dunklin Co. MO was originally Spelts and that he belonged to the Catharine Spelts in 1850 Floyd Co. IN. I found a Wm. Spelts in 1840 Greene Co. IN census, but lost him here. His son, Joseph was in Dunklin Co. by 1851. What a puzzling family this is to trace! Kay Pepple
