Searching for parents and wife of Issac Springer born abt 1772 in New Jersey and died aft 1860 in Beaver Co., Pennsylvania.

Few facts are know about Isaac other than he resided in New Sewickley, Beaver Co., PA in 1810, was in Moon Twp., Beaver Co., PA in 1820 (Listed as Isaac Spranger), Was in Raccoon Twp., Beaver Co., PA 1n 1860 living with son in law, John Cowfer (Cooper) and daughter Nancy (Mary) Springer Cowfer. There is also a Burres (Burr or Ban) born abt 1804 and an Isaac Springer born abt 1807 in the same areas of Racoon Co., PA that could possibly be sons of Isaac and Mary.

There is an Isaac Springer listed in Gloucester Co., Greenwich Twp., NJ in 1794 who would be about the right age to be this Isaac Springer. Also listed are a Houston and Andrew Springer. Are they related?

There is a strong possibility that Isaac Springer married an Indian woman. A letter from daughter of Mary Springer Cowfer makes mention of the family going to Mingo Island, OH and Mary being able to talk fluently with the Indians.

Any help on this family is most appreciated.
