Patti I just got in from Limestone Co. & think I may have some on this family but will have to check to make sure it is the same George Sanders. I have a Sanders family that was in the Oletha area in the very early teens that had a grown son by the name of George Sander & he had a sister that married a Brown. These would be the children of T Fowler Sanders buried in Ft Parker Cem. in Limestone Co. TX. If this is the same man he was involved in a hunting accident in Oletha that killed my Husband's Uncle as a very young man. Pat Oates in TX.
