Hello Donnie, I think we have a few boo-boos in our profile for Thomas Spearman (I think the profile name is Thomas Job Spearman, Jr.) Here's why I think so: I have the following information: Thomas Spearman ( born about 1740-died 1800) was married 3 times 1. Elizabeth Catlett; their children were: 1. Elizabeth Spearman-married Wm. Powers 2. John Spearman3-31-1764-married Anne Dawson Toombs 3. James Spearman 4. Mary Spearman-married Samuel Yeargan 5. Edmund Spearman-married Susan Adkisson/Atkinson? She is called Ann in his will in 1799.

2. Margaret Rutherford, Smith, or Dishman? Not sure what the last name is. Their chidren were:1. Sarah Rutherford Spearman-married John Adkisson/Atkinson, Jr. 2. Robert Smith Spearman 3. Samuel Dishman Spearman Third wife was Jane Wright. Their children were: 1. Ann Wisdom Spearman-married William Shelton 2. (Dr.) John Wesley Spearman-married Elizabeth Miller 3. Thomas William? Spearman-married Nancy Shelton

maybe we can figure this out if you take a look at this, or maybe your information is more accurate than mine.

I am also confused because I have 2 Thomas Job Spearmans. One is a junior and one a senior. The other Thomas I have is just Thomas, no middle name.
