Granny Howard Spiers came from Ashland and she married James Alva Spiers where they met at Randolph Macon college at Ashland. They went back to Carson or near there and with a bullet in his stomach from the Civil War they lived and had five children. One was Grandma Florence Howard Spiers who married Robert Stith Spiers, who was a relief depot agent for the Seaboard Airline RR. It ran from Va to Fla and they is where their children were born, Aunt Lizzie was born in NC. Mother was born in Centralia VA Aunt Florence was born in Vaughan NC and on it went where ever the RR sent Poppa they furnished him a boxcar and put all his belongings in with his family and he stayed for sometimes a month other times a year or two, just depended the sickness of the agent at that RR station. So all of their children were born up and down the line. Interesting,
Then Grandma got pregnant with Katyryn and Poppa had a stroke so they picked up and went to 24 S Cherry St and Uncle Junius was a half a block away. He lived at 901 W Main and he was a Swedianborgan minister and married to a Yankee woman he fell in love with when he went North to be a minister. They have beautiful churches up North, it did not take in the South. Anyway, Kathryn was born in Richmond, and Uncle Junius was called up North as the ministers say, so he bought a house at 415 N. 23ST in historic land near three blocks from St Johns Church. It had a full house downstairs and upstairs was two apartments, and Grandma could rent those out and live downstairs. Every one of her children came to live with her when they got married, got a start and helped with her living also. Then after Alva Lee and Robert came up from Georgia they moved to 1926 Princess Ave and lived there until they moved upstairs from Mary and Blair on 8 North Colonial, and that is where Grandma, Aunt Roberts, Conway, lived with Mary looking out for them and when Uncle Bill died Aunt Lizzie came over to take care of Grandma and the rest. Hope that clears it all up. Thanks for listening
