General Notes (Wife)
From Bernard. Daughter of Henry Spring, Jr. The Springs owned most of the land jsut east of the Spectacle Ponds. This is a very early Massachusetts family, which arrived via Brookfield adn before that in the 17th century traces to Weston and Watertown. Henry Spring Jr. (1733-?) son of Capt Henry Springs (1712-62) settled in town right after the Revolutionary War. The record suggests that Housatonic Plantation land had been promised to Capt. Spring for meritorious service in the colonial militia. Somehow the family wound up with some infferior hilly and rocky lots around the ponds. But, tehy made the bset of it, operating a successful hotel, or tavern as they were called, together with a stable to accomodate as many as 20 horses. According to Shepard (1885), the Spring palce was 'crowded with customers most of the time'. Today the buildings are gone and the road is a ghost. A casual hiker would never conceive that this humble little trail in the deep woods was once a section of teh "great Boston-Albany road."
The Henry Spring Jr. family consisted of five girls and two boys including yet another Henry, ( 1761 Brookfield, d 1832 Sandisfield) who became the next head of the Sandisfield clan. There were a number of Henry Spring's around at that time and it is easy to confuse them. Henry III and first wife Orpha had seven children between 1784 and 1792 including Mary A. who married Josiah Hulet. She died in 1794 andHenry married Phoebe, aka "Fear". They had five more children.
