Individual Details

Jane Sanford

(Abt 1735 - 31 July 1808)

I am unable to find her parents yet. Her parents are not Perrigrine Sandford and Fytie Vreeland, but there is reason to think that she is a member of the same general family group as Perrigrine. Perrigrine had a son Enoch that married Sophia Douw. Sophia's will is witnessed by William Douw which is the name of Jane Sandford's husband.

I did find a William Sandford married to Mary Smith and they had a daughter "Jenne" who was a minor at the time of William's will in 1733. She is the sister of Perrigrine Sandford and Fytje Vreeland. But, so far I cannot find any other information about her age, etc. Also need to look into whether William Douw had a first wife.

Information on William Sanford and Mary Smith can be found in the Passaic history book on page 114. Daughter Jenne is the 8th of 10 children and the oldest child was born about 1696. So, that could work, maybe, except she is listed as in her 73rd year at her death in 1808 -- so it would be a stretch.
