Spurling family notes





7/21/15 ... Two Zachariah Spurling households in Surry County in 1790 census.

#1 has 4 males over 16, 7 females.
#2 has 1 male over 16, 2 females.

#1 likely the father,  #2 first born son.  In 1800,  pieces of Surry go to Stokes, Rowan, Iredell counties.  Need to follow up in those counties for 1800 and after census to see where Spurling family lands.

More on Zachariah's roots.
RootsWeb indicates a move to Indiana 

William Spurling - 1790 Census of Chatham County showed 1 Spurling household.  1 make over 16,  1 male under 16, 5 females,  1 slave.

Conclusion - need to check early 1800s records in Chatham County for evidence of William and children.  Hattie, and multiple versions of spelling Easter.
