William Speight (D ca 1784), the father of the Speight's of Speight's Bridge. The Abner Speight house (1864 Gilmer map) was probably built for his father, Arthur, in 1830 (date on the chimney). It is possible that Arthur is buried in the family cemetery behind Tabernacle Methodist Church, as there is a base that has had no stone very close to the stone of his daughter Rachel Speight Moye.
