It is well documented that I am related to a Springer line. Seems like the earliest proven Springer in our line is Dennis Springer and his wife Ann Prickett. Great grandpa John Holt states in his journal that his grandmother Hannah Springer Mccoats (or was it his mother Lydia McCoats Holt) sent money to get her share of the Springer fortune.
Anyway I have been able to buy a share of stock issued in 1908 for the Springer Heirs Associated Company. My money should start pouring in any day.
Ooops according to many sources these Springer Heirs Companies were hoaxs. Dang Bernie Maddox on a smaller scale.
Well at least I have an interesting piece of history over 100 years old. I guess I can put this with my Ames stock. Did not get rich with Ames either.
