"Land records in Queen Annes County prove that this first WilliamSparks had come to Maryland from Hampshire County, England, at least as early as 1670, as had also his brother, John Sparks. Recent research strongly suggests that they were sons of Thomas and Joane (Davis) Sparks who had been married in Fareham Parish in Hampshire County, England, on October 19 , 1635.
"Among the children of Thomas and Joane was a son named WilliamSparks, baptised on August 6, 1646, and a son named John Sparks, baptized on December 3, 1649. They also had two other sons baptized in the Fareham Parish,Church: Francis Sparks, baptized on July 20, 1641, and Richard Sparks , baptised on December 10, 1658."
