General Notes: Husband - James Spriggs

---

He was born in Washington County, Pennsylvania, and reared on his father's farm, attending in his boyhood the subscription schools of his district, which in those early days were of a somewhat primitive character. He held the office of constable eleven years; was sheriff one term (1837-'40), register of wills one term (1842-'45), and was assistant burgess at the time of his death, which was caused by falling on his head when jumping out of a wagon, death ensuing a few days afterward.

He and his wife had a family of ten children, all of whom died young except one daughter, Mary Ann, and a son, Joseph M.
