Thats the one. Do you know Denton Sansom in Tennessee. I talk to him often and Patsy Denney in Indianapolis, they are descendents of Parlina Stafford.. I can give your their e-mail addresses, if interested. Denton has sent me information on the Sansoms that he has. I would like any information that you might have on William Sansom. What connection to you have to John Riley and Parlina Stafford? I know, I am just full of questions, sorry. I also have a book written by Van Turner with has a lot of information. Let me know if I can help you in any way. Do you have any information further back than John Sansom or any information of Elizabeth Davidson? It seems we have hit a dead end with both John and Elizabeth. Again, thanks for getting back to me, maybe someday I can get the Sansom Genealogy all together. Let me know what you need...
