Thank you. Eliza Preston was my great-great grandmother. Eliza Ann Sprint was my great grandmother and Sarah Annie Pearce was my grandmother. My father was Noel Cameron Kelly. Are we related? Adrian

Hello Adrian
Just replying so Corsamjz knows where we are at. Adrian is my second cousin, and we now have made contact.

I have Whitley SPRINT's death certificate - he died on 12 July 1869 in the house of his son-in-law and daughter (John and Mary PARKER nee SPRINT), in Thomas St, Portadown.

Would you have any suggestions as to where he/other SPRINTs may be buried. Do any headstones still exist for them?

Regards

Yes, the Massachusetts SPRINTs are part of the Whitley and Elizabeth SPRINT family from Portadown, Armagh.

Whitley and Elizabeth had a family of at least 10 children, the eldest of whom was William SPRINT (b.c. 1820) who married Elizabeth PRESTON on 26 Jan 1858, Mullavilly, Armagh.

William and Elizabeth SPRINT's fifth child was your William SPRINT. (My descent line is through their first child Elizabeth Ann SPRINT (b. 22 May 1859, Derryhale, Armagh)

William SPRINT (b. 1 Oct 1870, Portadown, Armagh) married Annie METCALF (b.c. 1870, Ireland) on  20 Oct 1892 in Taunton, Massachusetts. The children that I am aware of are:
Edith Metcalf SPRINT b.c. 1889, prior to marriage, in Ireland
William SPRINT b. 17 Jul 1893, Massachusetts  d.c. Apr 1965
George SPRINT b. 24 Dec 1894, Taunton, d. 14 Aug 1895, Taunton
Annie W (Anna) SPRINT b. 23 Dec 1896 Taunton, d.? Jan 1977, married Harry J TRUDEL
Thomas SPRINT b.10 Sep 1898, d. 13 Oct 1898, Taunton
Mary L (Minnie) SPRINT b. 3 Apr 1903, married David Albert Philias HEMINGWAY on 30 Jun 1929, Taunton.

TY so much! This is very cool. I am related because my dad's uncle Albert (his mom's brother) as he was called (probably because he father was David) Married Minnie. They had 1 dau. Dorothy Ann b. 1942 MA D. 2011 South Carolina of congestive heart failiour. Aunt Minnie lived to be 93 years old. We have aunt Minnie's baptism record and other things we got from Dorothy Ann before she died. She and dad were close when they were kids since they were very close in age. Dad remembers going to Taunton and they came  to Manchaug a Village in Sutton where my dad was raised. We have lots of pictures of them.
