Research Notes

• Jacob Spears (1754 – ca. 1825) was a man who engaged in several occupations. He was a farmer, distiller, dealer in bluegrass seed, and breeder of fine horses. As a distiller he had his two sons, Abraham and Noah, load barrels of whiskey on flatboats at Cooper’s Run, which led to the Licking River, and thence to the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers to New Orleans where they sold the popular product for a fine price. ^[1]

Slaves

As a member of the US Black Heritage Project, I have created a Free Space Page (below) for the slaves owned by Noah Spears on this profile with categories using the standards of the US Black Heritage Exchange Program. This helps us connect enslaved ancestors to their descendants. See the Heritage Exchange Portal for more information.(Banta-645 19:02, 9 June 2021 (UTC))
