    1. [KyGreenup] John Spriggs: 1855 Landowner in Greenup County, Kentucky
    2. Randal W Cooper

    3. Dear Subscribers to the Greenup County, Kentucky Mailing List, "Jno. Sprig" is shown on the 1855 map of Greenup County, Kentucky, on an unnamed creek which when compared to modern maps is shown to be Stockholm or Stockham Creek. On the 1876 map, is a "J. Spig" in the same area as the 1855 "Jno. Sprig". There are no occurrences of the Spriggs surname on the 1876 map, but it must be borne in mind that many residents are not on the map. The location is on Stockholm/Stockham Creek, about 1 1/2 miles north of Kenton Furnace. The "J. Spig" of 1876 is likely the same name as the "Jno. Spig" of 1855. I am seeking to identify this person. In the 1850 Census of Greenup County, Kentucky, there is no Jonathan Spriggs or John Spriggs of the right age range to be a landowner in 1855. There is a John Spriggs in the home of Benjamin F. Spriggs in 1850, but he was only three months old in 1850. In the 1880 Census of Greenup County, Kentucky, there is a John Spriggs, but he was 25 years old in 1880, too young to be a landowner in 1855. Who was the Jno. (Jonathan or John) Spriggs who appears on the 1855 map of Greenup County, Kentucky? I am investigating whether Stockholm/Stockham Creek was the watercourse that Benjamin F. Spriggs (father of Lafayette Spriggs) lived on. Thank you for your assistance. Sincerely, Randal W. Cooper
