Sheila,
Did you and I talk about our Spragues a long time ago? It would have been
through some association not related to the Black Sheep lists.

My ancestor, Anna Sprague had a sister, Polly, who married Sylvester Maxam.
The note says that took place in either New York or Sharon, CT.

I vaguely remember seeing that Sprague/Maxam or Maxham connection and
thinking there must be a relationship.
