This is for David Springer: David: Do you have any Springer's who ended up in KY? Maybe a Charles Springer and Hannah Hardin Springer or Aaron Springer and Mary Ann (Lucy) Hudspeth Springer? Aaron Springer killed in Civil War at Battle of Holly Springs, MS., Dec. 20, 1862. These are my earliest Springers and I can't find anything about them before these two men.
