Y. All rights reserved PRINTED IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA The William Byrd Press, Inc., Richmond, Virginia Foreword The purpose of this Genealogy of the Sands Family, which is the result of much research, is to put on record a more comprehensive account than any so far published in this country. The "Descent of Comfort Sands & of his Children," by Temple Prime, New York, 1886; and "The Direct Forefathers and All the Descendants of Richardson Sands, etc.," by Benjamin Aymar Sands, New York, 1916, (from both of which volumes I have obtained material) are excellent as far as they go, but their scope is very limited, as was the intention of their com­ pilers. I have not attempted to undertake a full and complete genealogy of this family, but have endeavored to fill certain lines and bring more nearly to date the data collected by the late Fanning C. T. Beck and the late LeBaron Willard, (brother-in-law of my aunt Caroline Sands Willard). I take this opportunity to express my thanks to all members of the family who have rendered cheerful and cooperative assistance. It had been my intention to have a Part II in this volume, in which the English Family of Sands, Sandes, Sandis or Sandys were to have been treated, and where the connecting link between James Sands of Block Island and his English forebears was to be made clear.

  • THE TRUTH ABOUT ROBERT RAY HAMILTON (1891)1 Text
    THE TRUTH ABOUT ROBERT RAY HAMILTON (1891)1 Text. by John Randolph Spears, Correspondent of The Sun Robert Ray Hamilton (1851-1890) was the great-grandson of U.S. Founding Father Alexander Hamilton. Trained as a lawyer, he entered politics, serving in the New York Assembly on five occasions between 1881 and 1889. Beset by marital trouble, Hamilton moved west in 1890, where he purchased a half-share in a remote ranch near Jackson Hole, Wyoming. and built a tourist lodge. That September he was reported dead, but doubts persisted about the truth of this claim. The following year, the Sun’s reporter John Spears travelled to the lodge; there the body was exhumed and a coroner’s report was issued. The identity of the corpse was confirmed and the circumstances of his death were finally established. A Coroner's Inquest Held at the Open Grave Five Days Ago.
