The following children of these early settlers are living: HORACE SPENCER, son of SIMEON SPENCER; CATHERINE SPENCER; wife of E. S. BURNSIDE; OLIVE B. SPENCER, wife of the late HENRY L.

The old house on the SPENCER homestead, which was built by Deacon AMOS SPENCER is a very early day, and occupied by him as a tavern, is still standing, and the old sign is in possession of the family. It is of wood, about three feet square, painted red with white figures. On one side is a sword, and the inscription, 'A SPENCER'S INN'. And the other side is ornamented with an eagle and the inscription, 'A SPENCER 1802'. AMOS SPENCER was a soldier in the Revolutionary War, having entered the service at sixteen years of age."
