  of 189

Looking for any ancestors of John Spiers 1799 Ga. 1889 Miss. The below note entry was dictated by John Spiers Grand-daughter, Florence Elvira Spiers Reedy 1866-1953 daughter of John Spiers Jr 1826-1900, to her daughter Florence Marie "Flossie" Reedy 1897-1962 while Florence was on her sick-bed ca. 1951-52.

Great Grand Ma Winningham was a Trammel from Alabama. Her daughter Victoria Married John Spiers {Jr}. Great Grand Ma Spiers was Edwards daughter Lou from Ga. She married John Spiers {Sr} & their son John {Spiers Jr} married Victoria {Winningham}. Great, Great, Lord Archibald Spiers from Scotland had three sons. John (tls or etc) lll Tybee Savannah - lived in Ga. Her brother lived (maybe landed) in N.Y. The oldest stayed in Scotland to inherit Title.

Everything in parentheses I added. Tybee is an Island near Savannah, Georgia. The above seems to indicate a connection to Alexander Speirs of Elderslie. At any rate if anyone comes up with anything I would appreciate a holler. I joined a DNA Spiers Project and am awaiting my results. Check out familytreedna.com its quick and easy.
