History The children of Arthur are named in his estate settlement, Halifax, d ated 1794. This is the order of the children's names. William/Willis (Named bot h ways in the same account) was probably the eldest. I have tried to gues s Arthur's age based on the fact that he was deeded land in 1778. The grantor w as one James Jones of Halifax. Witnesses were: Willis Speir and Christophe r Haynes. In Samuel Spears' pension application, Christopher Haynes said that t hey had known each other since childhood. Samuel's sister married one Lazaru s Jones who named his son James. Kindred Speirs (Halifax) was closely associ ated with James Jones. Obviously, there is a very close relationship. Sinc e a Kindred Spears pops up in Hawkins Co., Tennessee, the possibility of Kindre d being the father of these children exists. Kindred (Halifax) was son of Jame s (will 1760) of Halifax.
