Hello, Cousins, We have had new people join our list and it would be nice to introduce ourselves and what branch of the tree that we belong. I am also on two other genealogy list to research my HIGGINBOTHAM and CHILDRESS ancestors and if I find any info on those, I will share with the Sandidge researchers. Also interested in the BURKS, ANGLEA and WILLS surnames. My maiden name is Rita Sandidge and I live in MD. I started genealogy seriously about 2 yrs ago when my husband gave me Family Tree Maker software. I am interested in sharing with everyone plus I may need corrections on my data, if you have it. If you send me a name, I will look it up on my database and send what I have. I have not included the names of the living relatives in the below outline as I have not asked them for permission to send it over the internet. My SANDIDGE line: 1.
