Mary, if you descend from Stokley Roberts, you must be working on the Spearman line. I'm researching Samuel Spearman's brother, Joshua R. Spearman. Do you know the parents of Elijah Spearman's wife, Sidney Cotton? I tried looking for them in Robertson Co., TN, but no luck. The Senia, wife of John Lochridge that died 12 Sep 1865 (they had 16 yrs, but she was abt. 46) that is buried in the Spearman Cemetery in Itawamba Co., is the daughter of Joshua Spearman.
