1793 September 20th Birth of Anna Moon11 SPRADLING Wilkes County, North Carolina.
Notes: Anna later married to Joseph MOORE.

1792 September 12th Marriage of David SPRADLING and Telitha THOMPSON
Notes: David SPRADLING was born January 27, 1771 in [thought to be South Anna River], Virginia. [Scr: Diary of Rhoda Spradling TOTTY, his daughter, as transcribed by Birdie (TOTTY) McNutt], he died Bef. April 07, 1857 in Tottys Bend, Hickman County, Tennesse when he is mentioned in court records as being dec'd. Telitha THOMPSON was the daughter of George and Elizabeth THOMPSON[Scr: Spradling researcher Paul Owen]. She was also born in Virginia. He married 2nd to the widow Susannah SPENCER 1820-1821 in Warren County, Tennessee, she is thought by many researchers to be a PARKER by surname. BTM states Susannah is likely the daughter of Daniel PARKER and Mary Ann EASLEY, research still in progress, to prove this. She was born June 26, 1784 [Scr: Diary of Rhoda Spradling TOTTY, his daughter, as transcribed by Birdie (TOTTY) McNutt] in South Carolina, and died Aft. 1857 in Hickman County, Tennessee.

1795 August 4th Court Record of Wilkes County, North Carolina Assault & Battery State vs David SPRADLING

1795 August 25th Birth of Rachel SPRADLING, daughter of David and Talitha/Elitha THOMPSON SPRADLING.
Notes: Paul Owen SPRADLING researcher states My descent is through David's daughter Rachel Spradling (1796, Wilkes Co., NC - ca 1861, Barry Co., MO). David had a family in Wilkes Co., NC with Elitha Thompson who he married in Wilkes Co., NC, Sep 12, 1792. The children were: Anna (ca 1794 - bef 1857), Rachel ( 1796, Wilkes Co., NC - ca 1861, Barry, Co., MO), Tabitha (1797 - aft 1870, Hickman Co., TN), George Washington (1800 - aft 1870, Madison Co., AR), David (ca 1802 - ca 1855, Scott Co., MO), Obediah (1806 - 1839, Hickman Co., TN), Leonard (Jan 26, 1807 - Oct. 28, 1858, Sebastian Co., AR), Joseph (1810 - aft 1865, Hickman Co., TN), Elitha committed suicide in Wilkes Co., NC soon after the last birth and David left for Warren Co., TN. David moved between Warren Co. and Lincoln Co., TN where he met and married Susan Parker. They had a second family: Jesse (1822 - aft 1857, Monroe Co., AR), Susan (Mar 9, 1822 - Dec 17, 1898, Independence, MO) and Rhoda (Nov 6, 1824 - Apr 9, 1899, Montague Co., TX). The principle sources for information were: 1) Charles SPRADLING's will of 7 June 1780 in SC; Agnes Spradling, his daughter, and David Spradling, his grandson and Agnes' son were bequeathed. 2) Agnes marriage to Aaron Smith, a wounded Rev. War Soldier, in Burke Co., NC, March 4 1784. 3) Subsequently Aaron Smith was bondsman for David's marriage to Elitha Thompson. 4) Pension applications for Aaron and on his death Agnes provided a date for her birth and later marriage to Aaron. 5) Wilkes Co., NC Court and tax records. 6) Plus a history of the settlement of Wilkes Co. by the Spradlings. I know little about Susannah except that in a biographical sketch (Goodspeed) on Rhoda it was surmised that her maiden name was Parker. The marriage is established approximately by the break in the birthdays between the 2 families; i.e. the last son by Elitha was born in 1810. There was a gap until 1822. Biographical sketches were obtained for Leonard, Obediah, David and Rhoda.
While these have to be taken with some skepticism a pattern is clearly shown.
BTM notes that we need to find the above quoted Goodspeed records, research is still in progress as to the "proven" history and/or lineage of David SPRADLING father of Rhoda SPRADLING who married Francis Marion TOTTY in Hickman County, Tennessee, as noted in the Diaries of Rhoda SPRADLING TOTTY.
