    • Notes of Interest from Find A Grave Memorial# 6693519:
      SPEER, WILLIAM
      (1758 - 1859)

      William Speer was born in Somerset County, Maryland in 1758 and was a son of Jacob Speer, Sr. and his wife, Elizabeth. I have never determined the maiden name of Elizabeth. Jacob Speer, Sr. was born March 3,1725 in Somerset County and was a son of Henry and Jane Calloway Speer and a grandson of Andrew Speer who had come to Maryland from Donegal Ireland. William Speer and his brother, John are the ancestors of most of the Speer-Spear families in Cumberland county today. William Speer moved with his parents from Maryland to Surry County, North Carolina in 1771 when he was 18 years old. At that time two brothers of Jacob, Sr. made the move to North Carolina also. These were Andrew and Aaron.
