Add PhotosJohn Spoor, senior, died of smallpox 28 November 1776; it is said that his brothers were taking his body for burial and the town authorities compelled them to stop and bury the body by the roadside, on the west road from Sheffield to Great Barrington about halfway between the two places on the farm long known as the Hubbard farm. The grave was marked by a stone. His wife, Christina, died of the same disease 13 December 1776... We are indebted to Mr. A. J. Spurr for this information. -From "The Spoor Family in America"
