The Spradley's Home Page
(Berry & Jackie)

I am Berry Spradley, and the gentleman to the left is Thomas Edward "Black Jack" Ketchum - my greatPhoto of Black Jack Ketchum grand uncle.  He was hanged in Clayton, New Mexico for 'assault on a train'. He, along with my great grandfather Samuel W. Ketchum (shown on right) and three or four others, were the Black Jack Ketchum gang in the late 1800s.

I have also discovered that I am a third cousin to President Bill Clinton, both of us having descended from Bryant Spradley of South Carolina. As you might suspect, I am into genealogy and western history.  I also spend a lot of time surfing the net, since I retired from working as Printing Manager for the City of Houston.  I'm also an author of FUNDAMENTALS OF PERMITTING FOR SEISMIC EXPLORATION, and an inactive member of MENSA, and an ex-truck driver a long time ago.

You can e-mail me here , especially if you're interested in the genealogy of the Spradley or Ketchum families.

To search my SPRADLEY family tree history click HERE, or to search my KETCHUM family tree, click HERE.  You can download a GED file for either one of these families, for viewing on your genealogy software, and you can view or download photos of those kinfolks for whom I have photos.  Use your browser's BACK command to return to this page from the GED geneology files.
