Hyjean, Henry Spencer married Mary Wigg. His parents were John Robey Spencer and Catherine Sandlant, both from Ashby de la Zouch. John R Spencer's parents were John Spencer and Mary Robey who married Xmas day 1789 Ashby de la Zouch. John Robey Spencer's younger brother Thomas is my direct Spencer line who also ended up in Brisbane, (Toowomba) Australia (my grandfather was born there in 1894 but came back to the UK to fight in WWI and married my grandmother whilst here!
regards
Jackie
