In 1870 the family is in Toms Creek, Johnson, Kentucky:
Spriggs, Hiram, 60, Va, Farm Labor
----, Miranda, 49, keeping house, Ky
----, George W, 14, work on farm, Ky (As are the rest)
----, Nancy J., 15
----, John, 12
----, Susan, 9
In 1880 the family is in Greasey, Johnson, Kentucky:
(Name, Relation, Marital Status, Gender, Race, Age, Birthplace, Occupation, Father's Birthplace, Mother's Birthplace)
Hiram Sprigs, Self, Wd, Male, W, 81, VA, Farm Labourer, VA, VA,
Sidna J. Sprigs, Dau, S, Female, W, 35, KY, Keeping House, VA, VA, Susannah Sprigs, Dau, S, Female, W, 18, KY, VA, VA,
Marinda E. Sprigs, GDau, S, Female, W, 6, KY, VA, VA,
Hiram and Miranda probably had other children, given the customs of the time. I can't find him in 1860, and I'm guessing Miranda was the mother of all of the children I did find, so this family needs a lot more research.
