I am researching any SPARHAWK (or SPARROWK) in Cape Girardeau
Co. (or
anywhere). Dr. William Jenness Sparhawk Sr. and Mary Emily
Bushey Sparhawk
lived in Cape Girardeau. He was a surgeon until his death in
the 1940s. Dr.
Sparhawk's second wife was named Elsie.
William J. Sparhawk Sr. had a brother, Claude B. Sparhawk Sr.,
who was
married to Carrie Bushey. There was also a sister, Sarah
Sparhawk Bushman,
mar. to Joseph Bushman - Don Bushman and Joseph Bushman Jr.
Sarah Bushman
may have been active in the DAR and Eastern Star in Cape
Girardeau.
William and Claude Sparhawk descend from Noah Sparhawk of Ohio >
Nathan
Sparhawk> George Washington Sparhawk. George W. Sparhawk was
one of the
first licensed Steamboat Captains on the Missouri and/or
Mississippi River,
lived in St. Louis, and founded a bank in St. Louis. Sparhawk
Landing (later
became Thebes, IL) was named after George W. Sparhawk. There is
supposedly
an oil painting of George W. Sparhawk in the Lindberg Museum (?)
in St.
Louis. George is also referred to in several of Mark Twain's
stories .
This information is second-hand to me. I would appreciate any
further
information, corrections, etc., on the above people.
Thank you for any and all help.

Girardeau County MO query: Looking for descendants of Benjamin
HALL (and wife Rebecca)who operated ferry across Mississippi to
upper Union Co. IL. until early 1820s. He may be the Benjamin
HALL who died on the river about 1825. He may have had a
daughter, Eliza Ann HALL who married Orrin GALLUP in Owen Co.,
IN in 1837 as a minor with guardian permission, guardian
unnamed. This connection has eluded me for years. Eliza Ann's
mother was said to be from the BARRINGER family which is found
across the river in Union Co. IL.

Cape Girardeau Co query - families HALL & BARRINGER. I have
reviewed various census data, but it was not adequate for
my problem. My ancestor, Eliza Ann Hall Gallup, married
in Owen County, IN in 1837. Her maiden name was Hall, and
Eliza's mother was claimed to be Mary BOURINDGOIR by a
notoriously poor speller in our family. Although Eliza claimed
to be born in Grove, KY, I've never found any trace of her
there. On the other hand, the names Hall and Barringer turn
up in Union Co. IL with a Benjamin HALL described in the
Union Co. history as "dying on the river" about 1825.
This was convenient since Eliza's permission to marry as
a minor was granted by an unnamed guardian, not her father.
In fact, I find Halls and Barringers in the same block
on Market Street in early Jonesboro, IL. I also located
them possibly in the same Baptist Church in the northwest
part of the county. The connection to Cape Girardeau is
from the fact that the Hall family lived there probably
by 1820 and operated a ferry across the Mississippi.
I am very interested in determining if Eliza Ann HALL GALLUP
was a member of that Hall family and in what way.
