I find Spier/Speir and others as the spelling of my Spiers. I am looking for a James Spier/Speir who was born around 1675, fathered a daughter Mary about 1695. This dau. Mary married Caleb Coker and had a son by about 1714. In 1740 James Spier deeded land in Edgecombe Co., NC, to Caleb Coker for "love and affection". Some of us believe that this is the father of Mary Spier Coker. Others think it is a son-in-law of Caleb Coker.
Some suggest Dr. James Spier of Nansemond Co, VA, is the ancestor of the Edgecombe Co., NC Spiers.
Can anyone help?
