I have come across an obituary of Roscoe Payzant SANFORD who was born at Prescott House in Starr's Point (PortWilliams), NS and passed away 12 May 2010 in Kentville, NS. I have noted that his middle name was 'Payzant'. I would like to find information about this Canadian veteran's association to the Payzant family.
Hi Allen, According to Jack Sanford, /John Sanford Genealogy/, Roscoe Payzant SANFORD was a s/o Victor Payzant SANFORD and Margaret Catherine HINES of Canning, NS. Victor Payzant SANFORD was a s/o Joshua Arthur SANFORD and Emma E. Burgess. Apparently they lived in Newport township. I could find no SANFORD/PAYZANT marriages in Jack Sanford's book, so, as far as I can tell, the PAYZANT name in the SANFORD family was not familial. Of course the name may have come from the maternal side. I do not know Emma Burgess's parents names. Trust this is helpful.... John John D.
