SPENCER FAMILY NOTES
11/22/2001
I DEDICATE THIS PAGE TO ALL MY SPENCER COUSINS
and all those who are seeking to find their Spencer family lineage.
The following information was provided to me by my Cousin, Nancy Spencer Johnson. It is with her sharing and permission, that I have created this link from my "Beasley~Harper~Shoemaker" homepage. All data is copied verbatim in order to keep the intrigrity of all notes. This page is for the benefit of all SPENCERS, especially those related to the Shoemaker lineage.
Credit, Thank You and Inspiration go out to Nancy!
Your Cousin, Cheryl
"Since I first hit your site in Apr. 1999, I discovered 300 years of family history! Thank you for connecting me with my family. Now, I know who I am, where I came from and now have tons of my father's cousins that I would have never known if it hadn't been for you! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! My life is richer and fuller with family who can fill in gaps and information that would have otherwise been lost. Cheryl, the Lord will bless you for your interest in genealogy. May you feel our gratitude for making a huge difference in the lives of our Spencer family. We appreciate your diligence and acceptance of us in your genealogy line."
Sincerely,
Nancy Spencer Johnson

Please make note that the Spencers have agreed that Dr. Profit only had the affiliation with Phebe Spencer (note spelling), not Sarah Jane. Phebe had Johnty* by Dr. Profitt but since she was a child, Johnty went to live with Sarah and other Jamison family members which is why some documents state Sarah as Johnty's mother but that is incorrect based on personal knowledge from my Uncle John Spencer - 1999.
*Johnty Spencer b 13 Feb. 1866 in Wolfe Co., Ky. m 21 June 1892 in Dickey Strongs, Breathitt Co., Ky. d 13 Oct. 1947, in Canyon Falls, Lee Co., Ky.
Sarah Jane was married to John D. Jamison (a Profitt in-law: John's sister, Patience, was married to Dr. Profitt) This has been corroborated in 1999-2001, by 3 Profitt family-collaborators.
Sarah Jane Spencer b.25 Jul 1846, Owsley Co., KY m.abt.1866, KY to John D. Jamison d.Mar 1920, Wolfe Co., KY.
Children:
