My SPENCER connection is that descend from TWO of George FREEMAN's 1/2 brothers. Aaron and Moses SPENCER. As far as George FREEMANs connection to the SPENCER family, documents exists that spells out the freedom George recieved from Joseph SPENCER, when George was in his early 20's. No record exists of Joseph freeing anyone else. Plus as I have mentioned George is in the Harlan co., KY area doing land transactions with, and living near a half sister. I would like to see what PROOF this man has on excluding George form the SPENCER family. I hoped to have my email cleaned up by this weekend and I'll sent you some files. Have you ever seen the SPENCER book done about four years ago by Manuel Ray SPENCER? He's a retired educator now living in the greater Cincinnati OHIO area. It was he that put in print what many of us had read into the passages quoted in the old Lee Co., VA two book history...THAT it appaers that GEORGE was a son of Joseph SPENCER. Considering the place and time frame of events, it would not have have likely Joseph would (or maybe COULD) have done anything more for his son than he did...GIVE him freedom.
