Found your website and thought I had hit the jackpot.
You are researching so many of the same lines that I am.
Jobe W. Sparger married Nebraska King also a daughter of Louise Jane Venable and John C. King. They also had another daughter Arillie King who married my great grandfather William Richardson. Nebraska and Arillie were born in Pulaski County Va .
I know that one of Louisa Jane's children went to Indiana because on the 1910 carroll county Va. census two grandchildren both male are living with them. I cannot make out the names would love to know who they belonged too.
Any information appreciated.
Thanks
Pat
received from Kathy Stafford Baird on July 31, 2001
My great-grandfather was Armstead King, the older brother of John and my Great-grandmother, his wife, was Charity Venable, sister of Louisa Venable King. I wondered what happened to John & Louisa after 1870. I thought maybe the had followed Charity to Indiana where their twin brothers, Jesse & Augustus had gone. charity went there sometime after 1864 following the death of Armstead in the Civil War. she remarried in 1867. I have a lot of information the the Venable family. Do you know what may have become of Squire Venable, younger brother of Louisa and Charity? The last anyone can seem to find is when he was living in Carroll County with his mother and step-father. The Stafford line enters in when Laura, my grandmother and daughter of Armstead and Charity married my grandfather, Olive Stafford in Indiana Oliver's father was Levi Stafford, son of Robertson & Hannah Johnson Stafford from Kernersville, Forsythe County North Carolina. I live in Jackson Michigan. Kathy Stafford Baird.

Notes for JOBE W. SPARGER:
Jobe W. Sparger (age 31 and single) married Nebraska Florence King (age 16 and single) in Carroll County, Virginia on 16 April 1891. Jobe was the son of John and Nancy Jane Sparger. I do not find a marriage record for any children of J. W. & Nebraska Sparger in Carroll County. The only child I find is the daughter Willie who died 4 September 1893 of fever, and this information is found in the death register.
Sparger, Willie (fem), 4 Sep 1893, cause: fever, age: 1 years 7 months 12 days, parents: J.W. & Nebraski Sparger, informant: ------- informant: father

Hi David:
I came across your website doing a Google search for Armstrongs in Surry County, North Carolina. Your hard work is evident and fasinating. My name is Sabrina Cook, and I am the granddaughter of the late Laymon Armstrong who is listed on your site (son of Mary Jane Sparger). I called my grandmother (Eva Key Armstrong) who is 84 and grew up knowing this history to confirm this information. Here are some revisions for you to consider:
Lewis Andrew Armstrong and Mary Jane Sparger were married in 1909 in Surry County. Lewis Andrew Armstrong died in 1961. The dates of birth of their children are correct, but names are note quite accurate. In order:
Coy Lendo (not Ledo) Armstrong
d. early 1980's
James Laymon Armstrong
d. December 6, 1993
William Ray (not Roy)
