Looking for parents of Daniel and Mary Noffsinger (Notsinger, Naufsinger) Spangler. After Daniel died in 1787 in Franklin County, VA Mary moved in 1792 to the Pine Creek Area of Floyd County (which was Montgomery County at that time) when her son Daniel, Jr. purchased the Spangler Mill. Several sources show that Daniel Spangler’s parents were Hans Jacob and Elizabeth Stophell Spengler. I have not been able to validate this with original documentation. I believe Daniel’s father name was Jacob. This is from verbal family tradition. I never heard anyone mention Daniel’s mother name. Hans Jacob Spengler’s will seems to disprove that he and Elizabeth were Daniel’s parents. Hans Jacob’s will reads as follows: February the 5th Anno Domini 1756 Jacob Spengler of Allsace Township and County of Berks hath made his last Will and faith in the Presence of the subscribing Wittness, as followeth--That his only son George Christopher Spengler who helped ........ (portion missing)..... be it what nomination it will ...... and Personal. Except only that the Heir shall give unto his Mother Elisabeth Spengler for her suport during her Life Yearly (in case she does not dwell with him) 14 Bushels of Wheat, 50 Pounds of Pork, 20 of Beef, 40 shillings in currancy and the .... of cows but he shall keep said cows at his own charge. The Things above said George Christian Spengler shall give unto his Mother Elisabeth Spengler for her maintenance and further that my son shall give one cow and calf unto my Deceased Daughter’s Child Elizabeth Wise (?) by name and that wqhen she is married. which I myself signed by my own hand before Witness. Adam Reiffel Jacob Spengler D B Teobaltbaum his X mark 1756 February 18. Then Christopher Wilman of Reading appeared by solomn Oath did declare the above writing to be a faithful translation (by him made according to his ability) of an original Writing in German exhibited to me and by me delivered to him to translate purporting to be the last will of Jacob Spengler. Christopher Witman ***** I have have seen hand written notations on some old papers that Daniel and John Spangler came to what is now Floyd Co., VA from York County, PA. I suspect they were refering to Daniel and Mary's sons Daniel and John but am not sure. I have a document which was prepared for the 1916 Spangler reunion at the Pine Creek Church which says Daniel and Mary came from Germany. (Also have a good photo made at the reunion.) Any information on Daniel, Sr. or Mary Noffsinger Spangler's parents and descendants would be appreciated. Thanks in advance. Jack Spangler Ellicott City, MD
