Minor Henry Sparks 1826 TN Daniel Sparks 1802 NC
Minor Henry Sparks has been incorrectly linked to David Sparks. I think he is the son of Daniel Sparks who is David's brother. Daniel's wife Mary (Polly) 1807 TN has 3 out of 14 children living during the 1900 census. Only 8 have been identified, 7 are living with them in the 1850 census in Henderson, TN and another son born in 1850 is with them in 1860 & 1870. I think the daughter Susan 1834 is living next door to Minor in the 1860 census in Center, Prairie, Arkansas. There is a widowed Susan Russell with 2 small children. Minor is in Douglas County Kansas in 1865, back in Arkansas in 1870 and in Medina, Texas in 1880 where he died in 1882. I cannot find him on the 1850 census. Does anyone have more information on this family?
