Ms. Ewing, After perusing the material you sent, two (2) MOST PROMISING leads stick out. First, JOSEPH SANDERS on March 21, 1835 (Republican newspaper). Second, THOMAS Y. SANDERS on June 18, 1842. Perhaps, both of them had sons, one being POKE, my great-great-grandfather? I'm leaning against 'any' SAUNDERS as my ancestors.
