In a message dated 9/25/1998 9:47:59 AM Central Daylight Time, [email protected] writes: << he did not have any locations, etc. >> Ro, Usually it is best to try to get information starting at your grandfather and then working backwards. If you have your grandfather's birth certificate, is should have his birth place and date. Same goes for his death certificate. Also, find the obituary for your grandfather. It should have some very important clues. After that you look for the marriage certificate of your grandparents. Then the censuses are very useful for going farther back because the 1850 census lists siblings. The 1810 - 1840 require a little mental calculations, but they are very useful. Wills and deeds and tax lists are excellent sources of information. You must calculate and based on your suppositions, you will usually find the document you are looking for. Don't forget Union and Confederate rosters and the military records and pension records. These you can get from various places...the LDS or the National Archives can help you there. That should get you started. Hope this helps. Good Luck! Julia Florida/USA

William marr. Lucinda Hicks in AL in 1862. Haden Edward who married Penelope Sanford was born (according to my notes) in St. Paul's Parish, Stafford, Co. Va. There is no proof as to whose parents Penelope Sanford was. She is believed to be the daughter of Robert Sanford (Robert2, Robert1). Robert Sanford was born about 1690. His first wafe by 1726 was Mary Muse, daughter of John2(John1) Muse and his wife Ann. Robert (3) Sanford died before 29 Aug 1738 and named six daughters. Mary (Muse) Sanford married twice again to John Remy and Richard Flint. The parentage of Penelope has to be proved. I give this information only as a supposition or something to be further investigated. The DAR has a folder "Sanford Papers" with more notes on this, but they do not prove the line. Hilary Westin

Message as aprt of Sanford digest The earliest Sanford ancestor that I have in my database was one William Sanford born in 1602 in Rappannock Co., VA. No record of his parents or when they came over. It would surprise me greatly if the Northern bunch is not somehow another branch of our line. Hope others have more info. Jean Coan Joan What info do you have on the Early VA Sanfords. Would you be willing to share. I descend from Robert who was born About 1640 in England and died in Westmoreland County about 1700. I descend from two of his children Ann who married Jacob Ramey & Richard who married Edward Franklin. They had a brother William born 1677. (is it possible that you mistyped since there were no English colonist prior to 1607?) Susan
I assume that you are aware of the Carlton E Sanford book, "Thomas Sanford The Emigrant to New England..." He lists a whole passel of SANFORDS who lived in the northeast. John

As I said in an earlier message, I cannot prove any of this info. It was given by another researcher, that's why I am asking for more info. Jean
Dear John, Thank you for replying. Yes, I am aware of the book. Charles Bouton Sanford is mentioned in the book and also his children. One of those children being George Clayton Sanford, the one I am having difficulties researching. If I recall, the book was published in 1911 and doesn't go beyond mentioning his name. Again, thank you for your input. Regards, Barbara McDonald AZ
