Carl Sparks married a Bernice Leak which was a neighbor of Della Mae Southard and Perry Sparks.
Della Mae had a brother named Jesse Southard who was the mail man who brought her mail.
George Sparks married Jerusha Ann Draher/Dreher and George Sparks brother Judson married Emiline Draher/Draher. It is possible that Judson and Emiline settled in Indiana near Pleasant Lake according to some Sparks Genealogy that I have that is not in my direct line. I have mostly posted my direct line but do have a Sparks Genealogy that was written by a Maude Eva Sparks born October 23, 1890. She is the daughter of George Frederick Sparks listed in the above Genealogy in Generation No.2 and Helen Gamble.
