    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Sanford, Nunley Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/EgB.2ACI/2614 Message Board Post: I was wondering if anyone could help me find some information on my great-grandparents. Their names are Samuel Sanford (born 1854)and Emma (Massey) Sanford (born 1862). They are on the 1900 Spartanburg Census listed as living in the Beech Springs TWP. Their five children listed were Thomas born 1883, Ceneth born 1886, Grover born 1888, Charley born 1889 and Crawford born 1895. Samuel and Emma were originally from Crabtree TWP, Haywood Co, NC. Emma's mother was Harriet Nunley from the Greenville/Spartanburg Nunley/Nunnelley family. I have narrowed Harriet's father down to Peter Nunley IV, born abt. 1804 in Prince Edward Co., VA and mother Nancy Herndon, born abt. 1811. Peter's father, Peter Nunnelly III, born 1768 moved to Greenville Co, SC after the War of 1812 and brought the Nunley/Nunnelly name to this part of SC. Harriet was disowned by her Nunley family for marrying Lebo Massey. I believe Samuel and Emma Sanford moved to Beech Springs TWP because her Nunley gra! ndparents may have lived there. Any information on Samuel and Emma Sanford would be greatly appreciated; when they died, where they are buried etc. Any information on the Nunley family would be appreciated also!
