WHO WAS "SPICER?"

The name "Spicer" has come up a few times in some of the stories about Monroe County, Ohio. For example, Spicer was apparently involved with the murder of the four girls in the story of the THE CROW FAMILY OF GREENE COUNTY, PA, AND MONROE COUNTY, OHIO.

In addition, in response to an inquiry regarding 'Spicer' a reader commented, "I don't know his first name. That's the only name ever given for him. I did read one time about a Spicer family that was killed and two of the children taken into captivity, but I don't know if that would be the same Spicer."

If anyone has additional information about Spicer, would you please advise Karen Romick, at Karen Romick or at the postal address given on the home page.

A member of the MCC of OGS who was familiar with this case e-mailed us the answer. The member wrote, "I was reading Affair at Captina Creek by Harry Enochs and it identified the Spicer as William Spicer." William Spicer was one of the Spicer children kidnapped during the raid on the Spicer family that was mentioned above.
