Surnames: Sprinkle, White Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/1AB.2ACI/3751.1.1.1 Message Board Post: I'm not sure if this is still appropriate to the Greenup Message Board. . .but here's my reply anyway :-) (Perhaps any follow-up that does not apply to Greenup should be off board/list; you can e-mail me at [email protected]) Vic posted a transcription of the 1880 census for the David K. Sprinkle family of Portsmouth, Scioto Co., OH, mentioning that 5 out of 6 of their children were born in KY. Vic suggested that was probably Greenup Co., KY. I suspect that they were born in Lewis Co., KY. Here is the David K. Sprinkle family over the years, followed by the Frank White family. (As recap, Frank White married a Sprinkle girl. The Greenup Co. history suggested her name was Carrie. I believe it was Estella ("Stella") Sprinkle who married Frank White. Interestingly, Estella had a sister named Carrie; however, she married a Salisbury.) 1860 Census, Lewis Co., KY, Pg. 868-9, Dwelling & Family 782: D. K. SPRINKLE, 23, Wagonmaker, b. OH Sophia, 21, b.
