• Notes

  Sparks Quarterly page 3466: Another unidentified daughter of Willoughby and Polly Sparks was born between 1830 and 1835. She may have been named Minerva. She may also have married S. Nelson and perhaps she was the mother of the three children who were living in the household of Willoughby Sparks when a special school census was taken in 1855. The names of these children were: John Nelson, Willoughby Nelson, and Minerva Jane Nelson. This is just a map of the information from the article in the Quarterly. I have no idea if these folks are related or if they're just neighbors.
