Sprague in her diaries quite a lot. W.E. was one of her only surviving siblings left. I have several pictures of him, his wife, and I believe some with his children. She left me with some really neat information about his trek on horseback from Canada that is rather interesting. She gave a really good breakdown of Joseph Sprague's wives and children by each wife. I found it interesting that her youngest sister Annie Sprague married George Washington Ross, who was Virginia Sprague's husbands (Henry Burnett Ross) older brother. The biggest nugget that I have found was a very old picture of Joseph Sprague and Pollexyanna (spelled differently by Virginia)Winstead Sprague. It is faded, so I'm trying to find someone who can give me a restored copy, then I will figure out how I can post it. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

All these surnames are very familiar(we live in West Creek in an old family home), and so many listed are in Gram Hilda Cranmer's line. You've filled in some gaps. Thank you! We still have questions about Eugene & Anna(Kelly) Cranmer's 4th child-Ann---as Gram Hilda never spoke to us about her, and neither did Aunt Geneva. Haven't been able to find more current info on Ann either. But will keep looking. The families are so large & braided, and they re-use so many of the given names it can be a challenge to keep the different generations correct in my files & for researching. I also do research for the local historical society---so I have acccess to some old documents about the town---besides what Gram Hilda saved in the attic. I may even have pics of some of those mentioned in your post. I hope to get back to you on this board soon---I will try hard---so I can see if I can help you with your research for your John or James Sprague. I have hope I will find more info for both of us soon. I know a member of the Hist. Soc. who can get me his info on the Pharo lines too. Pray that God is willing to let the living allow me free time to do what I love to do soon---Family & Historic Research!!! Life has ust been to busy lately---and my Hubby retires soon---so MAYBE he'll take over some of my chores. (He loves to do my military research too.)
