John Spencer of South Wyllis England was proclaimed Gentleman in the 14th year of King Edward the Fourth. (Edward the Fourth was proclaimed King of England in 1461.) This is a direct link back for Emmett Lee Jones IV for nearly 600 years. Few families can trace so far. The first Spencer came over to England with William the Conqueror from Normandy in 1066, and was Robert De Spencer. He was suppose to be the steward of his household, hence the name. There is a Spencer coat of arms, we also have claim to the Jackson Arms. Rumor has it that through the Brainerds we trace back to royalty - King Henry the First of France.
