Hello -
Interested in your question ... my g-g-g-g-grandfather was named Joshua Spencer; he was born in England in 1764. What I know about him comes from a letter written by another relative ...
"Joshua Spencer came to the United States from England when about seven years of age, with his parents. The parents were both killed by the Indians when crossing the mountains of Pennsylvania. An Indian Squaw took Joshua as her son, because she had just lost a son. He was twith the Indians for several years. He went on many fishing and hunting trips, staying longer and going further on each trip. At last he made his escape but was recaptured by the British in Northwestern Pennsylvania, this was during
the War of the Revolution. Later he was traded as a pisoner of War the the Continental Army. He was taken to Carolina where the Governer on hearing his story released him and he was later educated by the Governer of Virginia. Joshua Spencer married a German woman near Greensburg Pennsylvania by the name of Luckbaug (or something like that) and had 8 children."
