My Spencer Lineage
By Randall S. Treadway

        Welcome to my Spencer Lineage Page. For years I was stuck on this line with my John Decker "JD" Spencer until Michael Spencer found me and gave me such wonderful information. Thank you so much Michael for all your hard work. Also, thank you John Spencer for helping me with our lower lines. Without you both, this genealogy would be incomplete. I believe the information below is correct, but if you find any discrepancies please email me. I hope you find the information helpful to you, and do let me know if you have more that you would like to add.

        Please remember each bit of information found here, or elsewhere, must be researched and proved or disproved by weight of evidence by you, the researcher.
