One son was killed in the late War. Other than Francis Abram, I don't know who the other son was! - Diana Gill Diana@Gill.Net Obit can be found via GenealogyBank.Diana Gillnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6186680765258462555.post-9660498565044208012012-10-10T16:32:01.133-04:002012-10-10T16:32:01.133-04:00Ha!

They were daughters of Stephen Sanford (Elisha 6 Stephen 5 David 4 Samuel 3 Ephriam 2 Thomas 1 Sanford)and Cordelia Hotchkiss. Cordelia was the daughter of David Hotchkiss and Huldah Bradley. Stephen Sanford and Cordelia were married 30 March 1825 in Woodbridge, New Haven, CT. Rufus G. Russell and Elizabeth Ann Sanford were married 4 Sept 1845 In New Haven, New Haven, CT/New Haven VRs. They were married by Pastor A.M. Osbon/Osborn of the M.E. Church of New Haven. Both the bride and groom were of New Haven at the time of their marriage. I just have Elizabeth Sanford as being b. ca. 1826 in CT. Elizabeth had another sister, Cordelia Eliza Sanford b. 21 May 1833 who married John Newton Champion and a brother named Francis Abram Sanford. He was b. ca. 1839 and per a newspaper obit, "Abram Francis Sanford" died in New Haven, CT on 23 Dec 1864 of lung fever and was the youngest son of Stephen and Cordelia Sanford. His father's obit said he served in the "late war." I assume he is Frank A. Sanford who served in Co. D, 27th Infantry for CT and Co. C, CT 5th Infantry, but I don't have any firm verification of that. Pension papers say his pension would go to his widow, Julia E. Moses. My Margaret Eleanor Sanford was b. 15 Jan 1830 in Woodbridge, CT and m. 21 Nov 1847 in New Haven, New Haven, CT John Quincy Adams Pickett. They had 6 children. Would love to share more data and would love to find out if you might have a picture of my Margaret! Saw your blog featured in today's issue of the HisGen newsletter. (10/10/2012).
