Hugh:

There are several books about the SPOONER surname in the Western Reserve 
Historical Library here in Cleveland, so I would imagine that they would 
also be available in libraries around the country.

I have SPOONERs' in my line, but very little info on them while they lived 
in the Eastern part of the country.  My SPOONER ancestors have birth places 
like: Hartford, Conn. in 1803; New York, N.Y. in 1803; West Hampton, Mass. 
in 1834.  They moved to Wisconsin in the mid-1800's and settled in the 
Tomah, Monroe County, Wisconsin area.

There is also a town in Northern Wisconsin called Spooner.  It's in 
Washburn County, and, although I don't know that any of my relatives were 
involved in that town, I understand that there were a lot of people with 
that surname who lived there.  Perhaps you could check there.

If you ever do get to the point where you think perhaps there is a 
Wisconsin connection to your family, let me know.  John.
