Hello All, I haven't posted this family in a while, so I will try again. I have Gideon G. SANFORD who was born in Rensselaer County, NY about Sep 1809. He died 11 Mar 1881 in Fulton County, NY. He is buried in the Broadalbin Cem. with his second wife, Julia Ann VAN SLYKE. He had a son James Harvey SANFORD who was born in Dec 1834 and a son George E. SANFORD who was born about 1835. Both sons were probably born in Rensselaer County, NY. Gideon was in Fulton County before 1848 when he married Julia Ann VAN SLYKE. Does anyone have any information on Gideon G. SANFORD or his first wife? Both of Gideon's sons were in the Civil War. George died in 1865 and James died 2 Jul 1866 in Fulton County. Any information about this family would be helpful. Richard
