I know very little about William and Sarah. They baptised three children in St John's Hackney, Middlesex between 1781 and 1791. There are several other possible baptisms in the vicinity for but I've no way of knowing if they are the same family.
There is this thread about a possible family for William Spencer here http://www.genealogistsforum.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=13969&highlight=spencer%27s+holborn But since then I have downloaded a Will from TNA for William Spencer of Sharp's Alley dated 1808 who makes bequests to his second wife, Priscilla (found the marriage, no clues there!) and umpteen nephews and nieces but no mention of sons or daughters. So I'm fairly resigned that this is not my Spencer family after all and that the name coincidences are just that.
