  Notes	From Paula Rigano-Murray, correspondent, note of March 29th, 2004      In 1830 next to Isaac on the census is a James Sprague who may be a brother. In 1820 Winhall Bennington Co., VT there are 2 Sprague families: Widow Phebe Sprague and Wyman Sprague.  This is Phebe Lounsbury widow of Johnathan Sprague (1761-1813) She is seen living next to her brother-in-law Wyman. In 1810 the following families are in Winhall: Darius Sprague:  (1789-1686) *Son of Jonathan Sprague (of John II and Mary Hutchins) & Phebe Lounsbury Sp:#1Celia Danly  Sp#2 Thankful Mc Gregory Note: From the History of Orleans County, N.Y. "Darius Sprague came on foot from Vermont to Murray in the summer of 1810, and located by article 400 acres of land lying about two miles northwest of Holley. After making a small clearing on lot #98 he returned to Vermont. In the spring of 1811 he came back to continue his improvements and build a log house: but before the tenement was completed he accidentally cut himself with an axe, which caused him to again return to his home in Vermont, where he remained until the spring of 1812, when he and his father's family moved on to his new farm in Murray, which he continued to reside until his death in March 1868. Previous to canal navigation, Mr Sprague had walked the entire distance between his old home in Vermont and this place seven times, a journey of over 400 miles." Isaac Sprague (son of John and Mary) John Sprague (son of John and Mary) John Sprague:    (John II and Daughter Chloe, Mary passed in 1798, he may have remarried Asenath Turner as I found a record for this marriage in 1805 and researchers assume it was a record for John Jr. and Diantha Turner, however I can find no evidence to that.) Wyman Sprague (son of John and Mary) My response:       My analysis is that the John in the 1810 census is probably John Sprague II, grandfather of #UN Isaac Sprague, Sr.  Then, Isaac Sprague, John Sprague and Wyman Sprague in the census are the son's of John Sprague II with Isaac being the father of #UN Isaac Sprague.  Darius Sprague is then probably the grandson of John Sprague II and the son of John II's son, Jonathan.      The 1820 census shows the two families in the Sprague line.  Wyman is as listed above and Phoebe is the wife of the aforementioned, Jonathan Sprague (Phoebe Lounsbury.)      This is all speculation but quite logically sound and worthy of additional research to prove or disprove the hypothesis. Paula Rigano-Murray responded on April 15th, 2004:                    1800 Winhall      John has 1 male 16-26 and one male 45+, one female 26-45 and one 45+  (John & his parents?) (John II (65y), John Jr 17y (b. 1783), Chloe (27 years old) and Unknown, wife Mary had already passed)      Jonathan, Wyman and Isaac all fall in the 26-45 age group. 1810 Winhall      John 45+ with one female 26-45: Daughter Chole John in 26 - 45 (could be the 16-26 male in John SR's house)with wife in the 16-26 group      Isaac is still in the 26-45 age group with eldest son, Wyman in the 45+ group.  Darius appears out of the blue in the 26-45 age group.  I don't see how he is a grandson since no one had a son old enough in their household to make that jump in 1810 and he is in the same age group as at least 2 of the sons.      Jonathan does not appear in Winhall but in 1820, the Widow Pheobe does with Wyman.  He died in 1814.

Upon Edith's death it was given to her eldest child, Hubert Allen Myers. Hubert passed away in 1995 and one of his children now has possession of the bible. These pages were photo copied after Edith's death in 1974 and given to her Granddaughter my aunt who then gave them to me. These pages were transcribed by Zoiya Holland-Tate who is the 2x Great-granddaughter of Callie Greene. The originals are included as well.
