  • Notes 
    • There are two Willard Sprouls. One is the son of Thomas Sproul and Nancy Cavin, who was born in Appleton township, Knox Co. Maine. This is a different Willard.

      The Willard, married to Hannah Miller Fossett was living in Bristol. Not sure about the death date, since that is the same death date as the other Willard.
