I like this! MAUCK--My 4th g-gf John Mauck Sr moved, probably down the river, (with his 2nd wife Christena Wiseman Painter) to Harrison Co IN in 1811. He and his son Frederick operated a ferry from Mauckport IN to Brandenburg KY for several years. My 3rd g- gf John Mauck Jr. (Elizabeth Heiser), along with other family members, went first to Washington Co TN in 1799, where John Jr. died in 1810. His son, my g-g gf Jacob Mauck (Margaret Hemp) moved to Harrison Co IN (from TN) about 1820. Some Maucks stayed in VA and some stayed in TN, spelling their name Mauk. FRAVEL--My g-g-gf Benjamin Fravel left Shen. Co. for Harrison Co. in the 1830's. Several Fravels were already in IN by then. Another case of some left, some stayed. When we first visited Shen. Co. (from IN) about 1970, we found Fravels all over the place, and were surprised that they knew some of their cousins in IN. I was able to buy a copy of the Hottell book from the shop in Strasburg, where it had been printed about 1930. The Hottell book has numerous occurences of moves to IN from Shen. Co. of Hottells, Kellers and Fravels, plus other names inter-married with these families. SPORE--The first Spore family to arrive in Harrison Co. was Henry Spore (Elizabeth Ramey), who were married in Frederick Co. in 1807, and soon moved to TN, where they remained until they bought land in Harrison Co. IN in 1826. My g-g-gf Jacob Spore Sr (Maria Magdelina Dressler) married in Shen. Co. 1791, moved abt 1806 to Washington Co TN, then to Knox Co TN, and then to Harrison Co IN shortly after being recorded in the Knox Co 1830 census. The two Spores, Jacob and Henry, are connected by DNA, but we aren't sure how yet.
