Spann family.

Dates:
Active 1850
Active 1962

Biographical notes:

The Spann family evidently came to Ala. from S.C. about 1833, eventually settling in both Lowndes Co. and City of Mobile (Spring Hill). The 1850 census indicates that the patriarch, James G. Spann, amassed a substantial number of slaves. James had five sons and two daughters (James G., Edward, Ransom Davis, Charles, John, Mary, and Eleanora).

From the description of Papers, 1850-1962. (Unknown). WorldCat record id: 122508041
