Sitha Caroline (Davenport) (Barcigalupo) (Byron) Spry was born on April 23, 1852 in North Carolina, the daughter of J T Davenport.

She was married 1st on July 23, 1865 in Nashville to John Augustine "Gus" Barcigalupo (1836–1907), the son of John Barcigalupo (1811–1891) and Angelina (Longinotti) Barcigalupo (1814–1845). Sitha was married 2nd on November 26, 1878 in Nashville to William Edward Byron (1855– ). Her 3rd marriage was about 1890 [probably in Nashville, Tennessee] to Joseph "Joe" Spry (1865-1917), as his only wife. [The 1910 census has him in his 1st (and only) marriage, while Sitha was listed (incorrectly) as being into her 2nd marriage.]

Living at 1503 4th Avenue South, Nashville, Tennessee, Sitha was 77 years old and a widow when she died at home of colitis on July 7, 1929. Burial was the next day in Mount Olivet Cemetery.

Most of the above is from her Death Certificate, with O F Medlin of Nashville as the informant.

Known child of Sitha and John:
~ David Barcigalupo (ca 1870- ) may have grown up using the last name of Byron

Known children of Sitha and William:
~ Bessie Belle Byron (1880-1931) m Owen Medlin
~ Sallie Byron (ca Jan 1884- )
~ James "William" Byron (1886-1963)
[Sallie and William were surnamed Spry in the 1900 census.]

Known children of Sitha and Joseph:
~ Benjamin Franklin Spry (1891-1940)
~ George Edward Spry (1893-1954)
[1910 census for Sitha = 7 children; 6 living]
