Spohn / Warner any thoughts on this?
I found the following information while searching for my Spohn family connections. Not sure If this has anything to do with my family or not. Maybe someone out there will know who this person is, and if there is a connection to me, or maybe to you.

1900
Skagway, Alaska
On Boadway Street there was a Jos. Spohn. Located there in NOV 1897 from Indian Territory. AGE 33, BORN SEP. 1868 In OHIO. His mother and father were also born in Ohio. His former occupation... COWBOY!! Present occupation, TEAMSTER
On this same street was a man named ??NGS P. WARNER. Located there in FEB 1899 from POTLAND OREGON. AGE 40, BORN APRIL 1860 MICHIGAN. He was married. His MOTHER was born in MICH., his FATHER born in OHIO. His occupation prior and present, Bookeeper.
The reason I find this odd? My grandfather, Floyd Spohn, was the son of Thomas J. Spohn, and Barbara Warner. Wonder if there is a connection? Does anyone out there have any thoughts on this?
