Barbara Lentz was the first wife of Daniel Jacob Spiegel She and Daniel were married in North Carolina before 1805. She and Daniel had at least six children that have been identified, David, Absalom, Elizabeth, Anna, Margaret and Elcain. Some researchers have the first wife of Daniel as Barbara Shook based on an old Genealogical chart almost a hundred years old.

Next I will speak about the Speagle family. The pioneer came from Pennsylvania and was of Dutch descent. I cannot tell what his given name as but he bought a portion of the Frohawk entry and settled on the farm now owned by David C. Shuford and their children (he mar-ried Mary Lence on Aug. 18th, 1805) were: John, Daniel, Davault, Michael and perhaps some daughters.
John married a Miss Lentz and settled on the lands which David Shuford now owns and was a member of the Lutheran church and a founder and builder of it. He went West.
David [Daniel] the second son, married a Miss Lentz and settled on the old farm where David H. Shuford lived. He also was a member of the congregation at Grace church. He sold his farm either to David Shuford or his father. He also left for the West.
Davault married Hannah Lentz, August 1, 1803, and settled on the por-tion of land now owned by Andrew L. Yoder. He also was a member of the congregation at Grace church. He sold his farm either to Waitzel or John Hasselberger and went West.
Michael married a Miss Jarrett as before stated. I think that the old pioneer Speagle and his wife were burled on the old homestead as there is an old grave yard beyond the little creek on the hillside near Thessalonica Baptist church, where perhaps a dozen or more people are buried.
Additionally, recent DNA analysis has tied the Lentz family to descendants of Daniel and his first wife. This analysis had no known Lentz connection at the time. The results determined the descendant(s) were related to the Lentz family. The only possible explanation it that Daniels first wife was a Lentz.
