=======================================
Source: HISTORY OF WYOMING CO., NY
BY: F. W. BEERS, 1880
=======================================
Harriet E. Cameron came to Covington, Wyoming Co., NY about 1825 with her father, Hon. James Sprague, who was born in 1792. On his arrival Mr. Sprague purchased a mill privilege. During the later part of his life, which closed at the age of seventy-two, he resided in Warsaw, NY. He was during his active life supervisor for several years, county judge, and for two terms member of Assembly. Mrs. Cameron's deceased husband, Duncan Cameron, came with his father's family from INverness, Scotland. He was prominent in the vicinity, was an active business man and interested in public affairs, holding the office of supervisor in this town, and exerting considerable influence toward the construction of the State Line Railroad. At one time he dealt extensively in wool. Mrs. Cameron's son, James G. Cameron, was a captain in the 136th N.Y. Volunteers.
