My father was Albert Ruff SPALDING (1914-1996) His father was George Redfield SPALDING (1877-1962). He married Alice Minnie Ruff (1880-1966). Alice Minnie RUFF was the daughter of Albert B. RUFF and Alice Minnie CLAPP. Ancestry of the CLAPP family is well documented. Information on the ancestors of Albert Bryan? RUFF is needed. It is believed that he was born in Connecticutt. His Father was George SPALDING (1837-1915). George was the son of Andrew Spalding and Isabella (MORRIS) SPALDING who moved from Perthshire, Scotland to New York and then to Monroe, MI in the period 1843-1850. George married Augusta LEWIS (1839-1923) on Dec 6, 1971. Augusta LEWIS was the daughter of Isaac LEWIS (1804-1889) and Sophia REDFIELD (1812-1889+). The ancestry of Sophia REDFIELD is known back to William REDFIELD (REDFYN) in the early 1600's. Information on the ancestry of Isaac LEWIS who was born in Derby, Mass on Sep 25, 1804 is needed. My father married Virginia BALL (1916-2001). She was the daughter of Samuel Seymour BALL (1889-1953) and Ruth Ellen LOCKARD (1893-1961). Samuel Seymour BALL was the son of Henry Kneeland BALL (1862-1929) and Netta Adelia CRISSY (1863-1947). Henry Kneeland BALL's parents were Conway Wing BALL (1838- ?) and Harriet Eliza KNEELAND.Netta CRISSY's parents were Isaac Orlando CRISSY and Harriet SIMONS.Much is known about the ancestors of Conway Wing BALL back to the early 1600's but little is known about the others listed here. Ruth Ellen LOCKARD was the daughter of Samuel LOCKARD (1860-1938) and Emily Francis MORRISON (1870-1937). They resided in Pennsylavania but nothing is known of their ancestors. Any information you may have on any of these families would be greatly appreciated. I am willing to share any information I have with others. |
