Hi Cindy - thanks for getting back to me. We are interested in a Spangler / Spengler who may have been at Gettysburg or had a connection to Gettysburg (even died there) He is supposed to have been from NC. This is part of a paranormal investigation, and no I am not crazy. Any help would be appreciated.
