I'm working my way through the VR of Sandwich, MA, during my breaks and lunch hour here at work. This is an amazing set of books (2 vols) with no only births, deaths, and marriages, but also baptisms, gravestones, and family Bible records. There are a lot of Giffords listed, and I would be happy to do lookups. But please, send me as much information as possible including names and dates. I can't do a lookup for "everything you can find about the Giffords."
