Good Day, I am in search of the Joseph and Minnie Sprouse Family............ Minnie was born in the Early 1900's ..........I know nothing more of them except her parents were Samuel E. Shirk and Charolette Margaret Baumgardner from the Milroy area of Mifflin County, PA. Any one know anything about this family ? Like to here from you. Kindly, Bea [email protected]

Can't find Joseph Sprouse, but Minnie M. Shirk (also spelled Sherk and Shira in other Armagh twp censuses) is in the 1900 and 1910 censuses with her parents. In the 1900 census, Minnie M. says she was born in June of 1894. Samuel E. Shirk born April, 1872 and Charlotte M. Shirk born October 1870. In the 1900 census, they say they have been married 6 years (1894?) and have had 3 children, all surviving. By the 1910 census, they say they have been married 16 years and have had 6 children, all surviving.
