Dear Fellow Sandford/Sanford Researchers: Sharon Olson and I recently completed a series of articles in The Genealogical Magazine of New Jersey that is relevant to many subscribers here. In "The Early Sandford Family of New Jersey, Revisited" we solve several previously uncertain/unknown lines and correct others. What started as an effort to prove one line developed into a nine-installment expansion of Janet T. Riemer's 2007 GMNJ article on the same subject after we found the European birth records for NJ immigrants William Sandford and his cousin, Isaac Kingsland. We not only documented several generations of Sandford genealogy, but also added historical context, including details of the struggles that ultimately brought William Sandford and his family from Germany via the Caribbean to NJ and through the colony's formative decades. And we included significant findings about related families (see partial list at bottom). We also used the Sanford surname project at Family Tree DNA ( https://www.familytreedna.com/groups/sanford/about) to help prove that the large Sanford family from Weybridge, Vermont (previously thought to be from Connecticut, Rhode Island or elsewhere) actually migrated from NJ. With greater participation from Sandford/Sanford-surnamed men, that project might also help identify earlier European roots or solve other Sanford mysteries--in the NJ family and elsewhere. I'm happy to answer questions from those who may be interested. Sharon is a brilliant and dedicated researcher, and I'm honored to have worked with her. She and I spent some six years on this series, which was supported by invaluable contributions from editor Jane Fletcher Fiske and the editorial board and staff of GMNJ; a host of knowledgeable, generous fellow researchers/cousins; many devoted keepers of antique documents; purveyors of DNA analytics; and two very tolerant spouses. One Sandford installment was published in each triannual GMNJ issue from May 2016 to January 2019. For those who do not have ready access to GMNJ, copies are available through the Genealogical Society of New Jersey: https://www.gsnj.org/gmnj/. Best regards to all! Chris Schopfer Some collateral surnames in the series: Berry, Brant, Cosens, Day/Dey, DeBow, Doremus, Dow, Grickson/Grigson, King/Koningh, Kingsland, Loveridge, Mandeville, Maurise/Mourisse, Pier, Robinson, Smith, Stiles, Toers/Tuers, Turner, Van Emburgh/Imburg, Van Ness, Vander Poel/Vanderpool, Vreeland, White.

Sandford the son of Dr. John Sandford. The city records show that John and some of his brothers settled in Mobile, Al after the Civil War. Thomas and his mother, Mary are listed as servants and mulatto. There is a paper trail to show the connections. Lynette Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
