    Notes:

    After arriving in America, Peter settled in Augusta, Co., Virginia until 1751-52, then moved up to Frederick Co., Virginia. Henry and George F. Spears explored the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia, possibly together, where George remained and established the "Spears" family of Rockingham County. Henry went to Maryland then later established the "Speers" family in Pennsylvania.

    Henry married Regina Froman and settled on farm known as Gibstoton, on the Mon River, below Belle Vernon.

    Henry Speers and his wife took up residence on the east bank of the Monogahela River in Fayette County, Pennsylvania, in 1764. He called his home "Summer House." He died circa 1782, supposedly from a kick to the head by a horse. His wife, Regina was taxed in 1783 for 250 acres of land, stock and nine slaves. Regina and sons would be found later in Washington County, Pennsylvania, at Speers Borough, a small community south of Donora on the Monogahela River. It is felt that the Speers family lived in the same general area as the "colony" where the early Crist family lived.

    Henry was active in community affairs - occasionally busy with one project or another for the county. He was appointed a captain of the militia in August of 1757.

    Abraham Frye and family located on the opposite side of the river. He owned land from Maple Creek on the outskirts of Charleroi, to Pigeon Creek in Monongahela, from the Mon River, to where Fallowfield township school now stands, except for the Grant and Wickerham Farms, near what is now Fisher Heights. They came here from their homes in a place 18 miles south of Winchester, Virginia.

    The Speers and the Fryes were intimately associated in everything that pertained to each others comfort, and this fact, in these days of trial and danger, was no small affair. In going from place to place or in the field, these settlers were compelled for personal safety to carry firearms so as to meet the attacks of the Indians.
