I am not researching the surname Sprinkle but during my extraction of the Snider lines in Wythe and Smyth Cos. I found a Sprinkle female in the home of a William Snider. I don't know if this will help anyone but I thought I would pass it along just in case. 1860 Smyth Co. VA Federal Census Pg. 1015 HH 1006/1009 William Snider HH Narcipus P. Sprinkle, 15, F, b. VA I am researching the Johnston/Johnson line trying to locate the surname for my ggg-grandmother Rachel w/o J. Campbell Johnston, who may be a Snider. One of the grandchildren of Campbell and Rachel did marry a Sprinkle. There could be a connection between all these families which has not been uncovered to date. Hope this helps someone, Corinne
