I am posting this for a non list member and will pass on to him any information that list members might have. This individual has been researching one William Sprats, a master carpenter/builder who was active in Washington County NY between ca.1790 and 1810. He is specifically linked to Dorr Hall in Cambridge, NY and less conclusively to some other houses in the area. He also has conncections to Litchfield Connecticut, having had a role in the construction of the county courthouse there. Sprats died in West Haven VT in 1810. Research has already been done in the Wshington County Historical Society and the NYS Archives, where an inventory of Sprats' household goods at the time of his death was found. Do any list members have further leads that might be followed? Thanks in advance for any assistance. Susanne Warren -- Susanne R.
