Did you try to find any church records? There was a church in Springville that doesn't exist anymore but I was told that the records were transferred to a Methodist church. My ancestors were also from Springville and I cannot find anything on them either. I contacted one of the Methodist churches there and they said they would look for the records because they believed that the St. Andrews records we given to them, unfortunately I haven't heard back yet. If you are able to learn of any church records dating back to that time please let me too.
