Biography

This profile is part of the Sperry Name Study.

Harriet was born in 1858. She was the daughter of Asa Speary and Mary Fiester. She passed away in 1942. Buried Cherry Grove Cemetery, Nordmont, Sullivan Co., PA.^[1] Husband Samuel is son of Christopher Speary (their fathers are half-brothers). I have two notes regarding the Speary Family reunions - which to the best of my knowledge did not exist after the 1960s. One states that Asa Speary started the family reunions. The other states that Hat (Harriet) started them. Hat is daughter of Asa Speary. 1900 Census shows her born in 1856 ^[2]
