Hello, Cousins, We have plans to go to Amherst and Lynchburg this coming weekend to "dig around" for ancestors. Probably be there until Thursday. If anyone is going to be in area and want to join in the search, please email me at RASandidge@aol.com. I am hoping to find the Buffalo Springs homestead, visit local cemeteries and the Amherst Historical Museum, and talk to 93 yr old Billy Sandidge. Wish me luck, Rita :-)

Haven't received anything on the Sandidge line in several days. Am I missing something or is everyone busy like I am? Jim

Hi, A cousin sent me a copy of this article which must have been in a newspaper. Rita Higginbotham Clan Meet At Amherst and White Sulphur Springs, Virginia Over 100 Descendants at Sequi-Centennial Held August 15, 1930 Despite the rain, more than a hundred descendants and friends attended the sequicentennial gathering of the Higginbotham clan which was held Wednesday at Amherst White Sulphur Springs near Forks of Buffalo. This meeting was quite different from the gathering of the clan for the first time in the early days, when they came on horseback with their wives riding behind them or in ox-carts bringing their families to the "Springs" to attend divine worship conducted by Rev. John Buchanan who had been engaged by the vestry of Lexington parish to hold services there several Sundays during the year. At this time a number of families had settled in the neighborhood of the "Springs" and it appeared to be very convenient to have Rev. Buchanan, who resided in the vicinity, preach there at stated times. His salary for one year was to be 1,000 pounds of nett tobacco. Springs Acquired by Sandidge In the early history of the county Captain Benjamin Sandidge acquired these springs and in the division of his estate of 1,745 acres the Buffalo White Sulphur Springs tract of 107 1-2 acres was left out of the division with the consent of the heirs, to be disposed of later. Through sucessive conveyances the "Springs" came down to Mrs. Mary Lou Myers, widow of John Myers and grandaughter of Absalom and Mary Sandidge Higginbotham, and the property was in her possession at the time of the death of her son, Dr. Henry S. Myers, several years ago. It is now owned by Dr. Myers' three children, H. W. and Henry S. Myers, Jr., and Mrs. W. Wills Turner, but from time immemorial almost has been in possession of the Sandidges and Higginbotham families. Captain Benjamin Sandidge, one of the early owners, was a son of Benjamin Sandidge and a grandson of William and Ann Taylor Sandidge of Spotsylvania County. On the Taylor side the Sandidges are descended from Colonel James and Mary (Gregory) Taylor of Carlisle, England who settled in King and Queen County about 1650. The Taylors were also connected with the Pendleton Family, including Edmund Pendleton, descendants of Henry Pendleton of Norwich, England. Among those present at the reunion Wednesday were Mr. and Mrs. Wm. M. Sweeney, of Astoria, Long Island, N.Y. Mr. Sweeney is a descendant of James Higginbotham Morrison and Frances Higginbotham, daughter of Aaron Higginbotham, Sr., who moved to Georgia. His mother who was Eugenia Octavia Reagan, married General Thomas W. Sweeney, of the United States Army. For more than twenty-five years, Mr. Sweeney has been gathering material for a history of the Higginbotham family. Being interested in his Virginia cousins, in 1928, he married Lenora Higginbotham McFarlane of Norfolk, and a daughter of the late Cyrus Aaron and Althea Jane Higginbotham and great granddaughter of Colonel Joseph Cabell Higginbotham, of Bedford County. Mrs. Sweeney is assisting in the compilation of the history and had at the reunion a very interesting paper on the original gathering of the clan. She is a member of the Society for the Preservation of Virginia Antiquities, of the Monticello Chapter, D.A.R. and of the Robert E. Lee Chapter, U.D.C. Other members of the family present at the reunion included Mrs.Lenora Higginbotham Watts of Monroe; Rufus Watts of Monroe; Charles Watts and family of Lynchburg; Mr. and Mrs. O.R. Pettyjohn and family of Monroe; Mrs. Samuel Higginbotham, Mr. and Mrs. Beverly Higginbotham of Rupert, West Virginia; Sidney Higginbotham and family; Mr. and Mrs. T.J. Higginbotham of Lexington; Mrs. Fletcher Higginbotham of Sandidges, VA; Miss Margaret Higginbotham of Lynchburg; Miss Cyrie Higginbotham of Charlottesville; Mrs. Rose Bradshaw and baby of Covington; Stockton and Betty Parr Drean of Lynchburg; Mr. and Mrs. Walter W. Brown and family of Lynchburg; Mrs. Ada Burch Higginbotham of Lynchburg; Mr. and Mrs. L.S. Higginbotham; Mrs. and Mrs. O.N. Johnson of Missouri; James G. Parr, Hal W. Myers and family and many others from Amherst and surrounding counties. (Exerpts of a letter from my great grandfather, Charles May Sandidge who was 71 at the time this letter was written in Reusens, Va on February 4, 1934) His comments to his cousin about the Reunion Clipping: The following names are our ancestors: Cousin Mary Lou Myers, Grandmother Mary Sandidge Higginbotham, a sister of our grandfather Lindsey Sandidge. His wife was Miss Ellen Higginbotham and their children were Nepoleon Sandidge, your grandfather Brown Sandidge, and my father and there were three girls, Ellen married a Rucker. Mary married a White and I don't remember who Aunt Nancy married. These were my fathers and your grandfather's sisters so you see how the Sandidge and Higginbotham generations are inter-woven along down the line and there are many Higginbothams up around White Sulphur Springs now, but very few Sandidges. Our old tramping grounds of our dear old forefathers and mothers are in the mountains. When our first people came there, they took up land from the government. Then it was in good state of cultivation and they made a good living. Now it has changed hands over and over into small tracks to all kinds of people.

Dear Judy, The rest of your early Christmas present was mailed today. The envolope included copies of: (1) Article which appeared in Tyler's Quarterly concerning the Sandidge family. (2) Article which appeared in the Richmond Times Dispatch genealogical column, dated 1 Feb 1914, written by Professor William Elmore Dickinson, concerning the Sandidge family. (3) Article which appeared in the Richmond Times Dispatch genealogical column, dated 19 April 1914, written by Professor Dickinson, as a follow up to the article of l February 1914. It must be noted that Professsor Dickinson later retracted his statement that the maiden name of William' Sandige's wife, Ann, was Taylor - that Ann Taylor died unmarried according to a family Bible later found. In fact, after over 100 years of research and debate, no one has ever found definite proof concerning her maiden name. However, " Pulliam" is the most generally accepted at this time. (4) My compiled History of The Sandidge Family of Central Mississippi (with descendency charts.) (5) My compiled history of The Sandidge Settlers of Georgia and Their Descendents (with descendency charts). While you requested the two above histories hoping to find a direct connection between your Nathan and those mentioned in the histories, there is none. However, in my list of unidentified Sand(r)idges, there were some in early Georgia whom I was unable to identify. But, by 1850, there was only one Sandidge family left in Georgia and they too migrated west and were in Mississippi by 1860. Now, let's discuss your early birthday present. You also requested my complete Federal Census Index from 1782 to 1850 covering all states where the family name (and its spelling variations) could be located; my incomplete listing for some 1860 and 1870 states; and my list of unanswered questions concerning the Sand(r)idge family which have arisen as a result of my research efforts. The first and third of these items will be mailed next week. I prefer to hold off on the incomplete list until I finish it . I still need copies of the following- some of which you may be able to help me with: 1860 Illinois (North and South) any pages listing Sandage, Sanrige, Sundage thru Sunrige. 1860 Indiana (North) - all pages listing any spelling varation of the name. (as you know, Indiana (South) is full of Sandages - but I have copies of those pages already. However, in Indiana (South), I do need copies of any pages listing Sundage thru Sunrige. 1870 Ohio - any pages listing any spelling varation of the name. (I failed to find any family members listed in Ohio in previous census years. I guess they didn't care for your present home state.) 1870 Illinois (North and South) - Same as above 1870 Missouri - Sandage, Sundage thru Sunrige Martin

We are related to Mary E Martin. She was married to Benjamin Thurmond Sandidge. they had one child - Thomas Hastings Sandidge.

Randy, In addition to the Sand(r)idge family, there are two other family lines which we may share - another Martin line (not my Mother's line which I shared with you previously) and Everett (also spelled Everitt, Everit, Everet). On 30 July 1828, in Amite County, Mississippi, Thomas J. Everett, born 17 April 1791, in South Carolina, married Nancy Ann Felder, born 13 May 1808, in South Carolina. On 21 November 1853, in Mississippi, their daughter, Sarah Ann Elizabeth Everett, born 15 December 1833, married Thomas Frank Martin - and their son, Thomas Jefferson Martin, was my great grandfather. The father of Thomas J. Everett was John Everett Sr., born about 1770. If the Everett's of Georgia in your line came from South Carolina, there is probably a connection. The name is not a very common one. The other Martin family married into one of my Sand(r)idge lines. About 1818, in Franklin County, Tennessee, my 3G grandfather, Benjamin Thurmond Sandridge, married Mary Elizabeth Martin, born 1799/1899, Wilkes County, North Carolina. She was the daughter of David John Martin and Susannah Benge (or Bange) who were married on 2 February 1797, in North Carolina; and residing in Franklin County, Tennessee, by 1818. Bondsman for their marriage was Thomas Martin. I don't know what the problem is - but, previous message addressed to you at martin@cmresearch.com(r.martin) was returned with the notation that that destination address was unknown. However, I had also put CC to the Sandidge mailing list and that is how it reached you. I am doing the same with the message to insure that it also reaches you. Martin

Dear Fellow Sandidge Obsessors: Below are the Sandidge names that I gathered from http://www.ancestry.com/search.htm I used Martin's list of variant spellings and checked them all. I can identify the John Sandidge's in Green Co. Can anyone identify the others?

Bonnie, I can give you the following information concerning this Amanda Sandidge who is probably your 2G grandmother: Page 087, 1850 Federal Census for the Eastern District, Amherst County, Virginia, dated 21 September 1850, lists the following: Name Age Occupation Real estate State born Value Sandedge, Anderson 56 Farmer 500 Va. Sandedge, Hariet 50 Va. Sandedge, Emely 22 Va. Sandedge, Mary 20 Va. Sandedge, Paulus E. 18 Laborer (male) Va. Sandedge, Sarah A. 16 Va. Sandedge, Bennet A. 14 (male) Va. Sandedge, Amanda 12 Va. Anderson B.Sandidge, born 9 August 1793, was the son of Benjamin Sandidge, born before 1765, who married Elizabeth Childress on 28 October 1783, in Amherst County, Va. Benjamin, who died after 1840, in Amherst County, Va. was the son of John Sandige, born about 1730, in Virginia. In 1752, in Virginia, John married Keziah Gatewood, daughter of Henry and Dorothy Dudley Gatewood. Keziah died before 2 December 1796, in Amherst County. John died in 1803, in Amherst County. John was the son of William Sandige, born about July 1698, in Virginia. Records indicates that Anderson's wife was named Harriet - but her maiden name is unknown. The misspelling of Sandidge was (and still is) not uncommon. If you wish, send me your mailing address and I will send you a copy of the history I compiled which contains the above information and more concerning your ancestors. There is no cost to you. Martin

Connie, Your requested information is not in the mail yet because I have been unable to find the newspaper article concerning the Sandidge family. It is from The Richmond Times-Dispatch, Genealogical Column, dated l February 1914, and was written by Professor Dickinson, West Virginia University , who was a Sandidge descendent. I have read it and I know it is somewhere; however, it has eluded my search. I do have (and can reproduce for you) the following which you may or may not have: Sixteen page article concerning the Sandidge family authored by Samuel W. Hughes who died in August 1944. The aricle appeared in Tyler's Quarterly Historical and Genealogical Magazine, v. 27, pages 293 to 309. In writing the article, Mr. Hughes used the family data that Professor Dickinson had left him at his death in 1915, and data he had collected on the family covering a period of a great many years. Sandidge Family Notes - LDS Family History Library, Salt Lake City, Utah (which is also available on microfilm through your local Family History Center.) Sandidge Family of Virginia - by Dr. Paul Sandidge York, 1947. (Which is also available on microfilm from LDS Family History Library through your local Family History Center.) Sandidge Line Of Descent - and The William Sandidge Family Of Va -author not indicated . (This is also available on microfilm from the LDS Family Library through your local Family History Center.) This document appears to be someone's working papers. Although typewritten, there are many handwritten additions and corrections. I know- promises, promises - but this time it will be in the mail just as soon as I know how much of this you want. Martin

Nothing like a good discussion about who belongs to who (whom?) Looks though I stirred up a small hornet's nest with my last e-mail regarding John W. Sandidge, Jr. being the father of Daniel and the son of Pulliam. I notice that Karen has Larkin as the father of John. Don't doubt it a bit! There were about as many Larkin Sandidge's as John Sandidge's running around those days! In the register of Amherst Co., VA marriage bonds, there is listed a John W. Sandidge, Jr. to a Patience Coleman. The father of the groom is listed as Pulliam Sandidge and the father of the bride is listed as Benj. Coleman. Security and witnesses were Joshua Sandidge, S. Garland, Virgil Coleman, William Crawford, and Anselm Clarkson. I also have a letter of consent from Benj. Coleman stating, "This will certify that I give consent to a marriage between John Sandidge Junr. and my daughter Patience Coleman, given under my hand and seal this 20th day January 1803." This is signed by Benj. Coleman and witnessed by Joshua Sandidge (his mark) and Virgil Coleman. I also have a copy of the following: "Sir this will certify that my son John Sandidge is of age given under my hand and seal this 22 day of January 1803". This is signed by Pulliam Sandidge and witnessed by Joshua Sandidge (his mark) and AnSelm Clarkson. I also have a copy of the bond signed by John Sandidge and Joshua Sandidge in the amount of $150.00. Witnessed by (unreadable) Garland. I have three John W. Sandidge's in my files. The first is John W. Sandidge, Jr., the son of Pulliam Sandidge and Lucy Hudson. The second is John Wood Sandidge, the son of John S. Sandidge and Mary Wood. John Wood was born 29 July 1809 in Albemarle Co., VA and married Mariah L. Brents (Bunts?) on 15 July 1834 in Green Co., KY. The third is John W. Sandidge, son of Aaron Burr Sandidge and Lucy Trigg "Polly" Robertson Thompson. Aaron' father was John S. and Mary Wood. They were also from Green Co., KY. The mother of John S. Sandidge was Elizabeth "Betty" Graves and his father was William (Jr. or II or son of William - whatever).Elizabeth moved from Virginia to Green Co., KY with her son, John and his wife Mary Wood, in 1810. At that time Elizabeth Graves Sandidge was 90 years old. She is buried in the Sandidge Cemetery in Green Co., KY. She died at age 106. Now to the most confusing name(s) in my files ..... that of Larkin Sandidge. Karen has Larkin as the father of John W., Jr. and married to Mary Vaughn. Larkin did marry Mary Vaughn (Vaughan) in Mercer Co., VA in 1780 and moved to Lincoln Co., KY shortly thereafter. It is ironic that Mary Vaughn was also (supposedly)the wife of the first John Sandidge (father of William (Sr. or I or whatever - husband of Ann Pulliam). I also have a Larkin born: 21 Nov 1758 in Spotsylvania Co., VA and died 25 August 1791 at age 32. He was the son of David and Ann Pulliam Sandidge. Another Larkin was the son of John W., Jr. and Patience Coleman Sandidge who was born in Lincoln Co., KY. I also have a Larkin, son of James (born 1762) and Patsy Bronough Sandidge. Daniel, who started all of this, also had a son named Larkin. So, with all of the above, can anyone put it together? The marriage bond, consent for marriage, and certification that John W., Jr. was of age signed by Pulliam makes an argument that this John W. was the son of Pulliam and Lucy Hudson Sandidge and was the father of Daniel. As usual, nothing is sacred with my research. I probably have more mistakes than all of you combined in my files. Together, maybe we can get me straightened out. Let me know what you think. Jim

Hi - let's see if we can unravel this one - see the msg below from jorgy@flash.net, and the previous msg from Sandidge@MIS.net. Can anybody come up with an answer - to the parents and wives of these two John W. Sandidge. BTW there is a third John W. Sandidge, a son of Mother Woods, and Stayed in KY. josephine Resent-Date: Tue, 12 Aug 1997 12:33:57 -0700 (PDT) Date: Tue, 12 Aug 1997 14:18:32 -0500 (CDT) X-Sender: jorgy@pop.flash.net X-Mailer: Windows Eudora Light Version 1.5.4 (16) To: Sandidge-L@rootsweb.com From: Karen Jorgensen <jorgy@flash.net> Subject: Joshua Sandidge Resent-From: SANDIDGE-L@rootsweb.com X-Mailing-List: <SANDIDGE-L@rootsweb.com> archive/latest/108 X-Loop: SANDIDGE-L@rootsweb.com Resent-Sender: SANDIDGE-L-request@rootsweb.com Recently Rita asked if we could place a number of Sandidges in the family tree.

In response to Rita's request..... Daniel Sandidge, b: 23 Feb 1804, d: 8 Aug 1882 was the son of John W. Sandidge (Abt 1781 - 27 Mar 1803) and Patience Coleman (Abt 1778 - 17 July 1864). John W. was the son of Pulliam Sandidge and Lucy Hudson. Pulliam was the son of John Sandidge (Abt 1728 - Abt 1803) and Keziah Gatewood (Abt 1725 - Bef 26 Dec 1796). This John was the son of William and Ann Pulliam. Daniel married Permelia Tate (Abt 1803 - 11 Feb 1845) on 10 Oct 1825 and married Cynthia Phillips (18 April 1808 - 15 June 1891) in August 1845. Source: History of McDonough Co., IL Daniel Sandidge born 23 February 1804 in Tidewater, VA married (1) 10 October 1825, in Lincoln Co., KY, Permelia Tate, born 9 March 1803 in Casey Co., KY (daughter of William Tate and Lucy Phillips) died 11 February 1845 in Schuyler Co., IL. Daniel Sandidge came to ElDorado, IL in the fall of 1833, from Industry Township. He resided there until 1850, when he went to Schuyler Co., IL where he died in 1882. He was a native of Virginia, born 23 February 1804 and a son of John Sandidge. Daniel Sandidge was married in 1826 to Permelia Tate, a daughter of William and Elizabeth Tate of Casey Co., KY. In the spring of 1832, Mr. Sandidge moved to McDonough Co., IL and settled in Industry Township, where he remained for 1 1/2 years, then removed to Schuyler Co., where he lived until his death on 8 August 1882. He was twice married, his first wife dying in February, 1845. In August of the same year he was again married to Cynthia Phillips, daughter of Samuel Phillips. I have Daniel's children listed as Lucy Jane Sandidge (married Isom David), William Sandidge (moved to Montana), Mary Sandidge (married Jonah Lindsay), Harriet Sandidge (married L. Gorsuch), Eugenia P. Sandidge (married Albert Pittenger), John Sandidge (married Emma Stockton), Virginia Sandidge (married Nathan Lindsay), Permelia Sandidge (died young), Charles Clayton Sandidge (moved to Montana), Larkin (another one!!!!) Sandidge (moved to Montana), Daniel Sandidge (married Louise Weller). All of the above were children of Daniel and Permelia. He fathered Ellen Sandidge (married Michael McCarty) and Samuel Sandidge (died young) by Cynthia Phillips, his second wife. As usual, I must put in my normal disclaimer ..... nothing is absolutely sure and I am open to change, challenge, and readily admitting to my many mistakes. This branch of Sandidges is related by marriage to the British royal family. Dorothy Dudley, wife of Henry Gatewood and mother of Keziah Gatewood, the mother of Pulliam Sandidge mentioned above, was a descendant of King Edward through Sir John Sutton VI (25 December 1400 - 17 August 1487) who was the father of Sir Edmund (Lord Dudley) Sutton. Most of the information about Daniel Sandidge and his family came from "The History of McDonough Co., IL" and "The History of Cass, Schuyler, and Brown Counties, IL - 1892". I found them at the Kentucky Historical Society Library in Frankfort, KY. I you want more information, maybe I can sent it via snail mail or when I figure out how to attach text to e-mail. Like Martin, I am still trying to figure out these new fangled computer machines! Jim Sandidge 1498 Alton Station Road Lawrenceburg, KY 40342-9448

Judy, I don't know where my head was yesterday because I did not check my Sandidge family census records for 1850 - but I have the following concerning Jane Sandridge, 1850 S.C.: Page 082, 1850 Union County, South Carolina, dated 16 November 1850: Boyd, John 30 Shoemaker S.C. Boyd, Eliza 23 S.C. Boyd, Susan 4 S.C. Boyd, Louisa 1 S.C. Sandridge, Jane 22 S.C. Maybe this will be of some help. Martin

CORRECTION: > 97. Sandage, Nathan, born 17 March 1804, in Union County, South >Carolina. I must have been really really tired because it dawned on me today at work that this isn't Nathan's son, Nathan but his GRANDSON -- and I knew that yesterday too. This Nathan, b Mar 17, 1804 was the son of Thomas, who was the son of Nathan. Thomas was one of the 2 sons who went with his mother, Mary Canady/Kenady to Indiana and Nathan, b Mar 17, 1804, also went to Indiana. Sorry for this error, Judy M.

My sandidge connection Mary Sandidge who married Anthony Gholson jr. was born about 1720, probably in Spotsyl. co. va. She married Anthony about 1740. She and anthony Gholson (some of her line spelled it Gholtson) had: Sarah married Charles Powell Ann married a fleming John married Ann Pettus Joseph married Frances Waddell Mary married James Jones Elizabeth married David Jones Eunice probably died unmarried Dabney married Elizabeth Pullium she died then he married Mary Bullock Susanna married Anthony Pruitt Mary rendered service to the Continental Troops as shown in the Public Claims for Halifax Co. Va. Va state archives p. 25--she gave 3 bushels of indian corn, 13 bushels of indian corn, and 200 pounds of fodder. Ancestors of Marys line can join the DAR with proven ancestory. Her DAR number is 76691. Anthony Gholson Jr. died before the Rev. ended and Mary Gholson married John Brown. in 1799, Mary Sandidge gholson Brown made a deposition in a case in Halifax county. She died sometime after that- I salute Mary Sandidge--my Rev. DAR ancestor Betty

i have information on the alex. standridge line. he had sons presumbly, martin, john, samuel, james, and lemuel owen standridge. he was in 96th dist. of south carolina in 1790. he was in pledleton dist. s. c. in 1800; in 1830 there is a samuel in ga. that could be this line habersham county. in 1832 these standridges are on long creek of carroll co. ar. they traveled with the families of Blevins and Meeks. By 1840, they are in Newton County Ar. They always spelled the name standridge. But the census taker in 1850 identified that many of them could not read or write so they could be of the sandidge line. my husband is a descendent of Lemuel Owen Standridge of Newton co. ark. i have the children of Martin, his brother. I have access to a book, at my local library that names all the children of the brothers that came to ar. by the time they reached ar. the elder Alexander was dead. his wife was probably with one of the sons (census records so elderly woman with lemuel owen standridge. I have a sandidge line. My line is Mary Sandidge daughter of William and Ann Pulliam. Mary married Anthony Gholson Jr. If my husbands line is the same as mine. We are related and he may want a divorce. Betty

Geri sent me this back in April -- sounded familiar, but my records only showed the same info she had here -- does this sound familiar to anyone or can anyone help her? Her letter to me with her email address is here: From: GFG1017@aol.com Date: Sun, 13 Apr 1997 19:24:59 -0400 (EDT) To: jmurphy@erinet.com Subject: Standridge X-UIDL: d98a6a98e84f9f1c9bebd2ed094b5887 My g-g-g-g-grandfather was ALEXANDER STANDRIDGE for S.C. he married Elizabeth (Owen or Martin) They and their children, Martin, John, & Samuel and maybe more children left S.C. and moved to Newton Co., Ark. Are these names familiar to you? Thanks, Geri gfg1017@aol.com Note to Geri -- the address I am sending this to is a List which talks about Sandridge, Sandidge, and other variations on the name. Maybe someone can help you since these wonderful people on the list are from all over the USA and do research in the various states too. thanks, Judy M.

> 45. Sandridge, Nathan - page 090, (of ?)1790 Union County, South >Carolina . Also listed on page 152, 1830 Union Co., South Carolina Census >and on page 175 of the 1840 Union Co.,South Carolina Census. (Attn: Judy) The above mentioned is 2 different persons by Nathan first name -- the 1790 census is Nathan who was married to Mary Canady/Kenedy and whose wife and 2 of the sons moved to Perry Co, Indiana and used the name SANDAGE. The third son of this Nathan is the Nathan who is the 1830 and 1840 census and who stayed in SC. I haven't any other info on him except that he stayed in SC and continued using the SANDRIDGE surname -- would LOVE to know about who he married, his children, etc. The father, Nathan, was born 175_ and one source tells me he was born in Albemarle Co, VA and his parents were Thomas and Frances Chappell Sandidge -- this is what I am trying to find proof on since I personally have never gotten before South Carolina with him. > 52. Sandridge, Thomas - page 052 of (?), 1810 Union District, South >Carolina The above Thomas is son of Nathan (#45) and brother the the Nathan (#45's 1830 & 1840 census). He moved to Perry Co, IN shortly after this census was taken. > 97. Sandage, Nathan, born 17 March 1804, in Union County, South >Carolina. This above is the one that is on the 1830 & 1840 census in #45, and is the son of Nathan and Mary Canady/Kenedy Sandridge/Sandidge/Sandage. He stayed in SC supposedly. > 102. Sandage, Jacob, born 20 March 1888, in Texas. I think this is the son of Moses & Elizabeth (in my Sandage Book #2 shown as #3392); he died Jan 1966 Brownfield, Texas -- don't have my notes in front of me but that looks right. > > Martin > For those who have internet access I have 2 books I had put together back in 1990 -- the first one is indexed at the end of the book and is almost all the descendants of Nathan and Mary Canady Sandage from Union Co, SC and Perry Co, IN. Book #2 I took many variations of the names and put the matches by family there accordingly -- has info of other Sandidge, Sandridge, etc. that I had matched up by that date (the index to this book is separate -- sometimes I got off one page so if it says pg 38 and you don't find it try 37 and 39). (I have lots and lots more I have just never put on the computer and are on 3x5 cards (have 3 shoeboxes full of these) and other pieces of paper (notes). Just never computerized everything yet. If you want to online view what I had done back in 1990 go to: http://members.aol.com/murphyjudi/perry/perry.htm I am sure that I have seen many of the other persons you are searching in my notes -- just will take me time to go through them and see if these I can identify for you.
