DESCENDANTS OF JAMES SANDS OF BLOCK ISLAND With notes on the WALKER, HUTCHINSON, RAY, GUTHRIE, PALGRAVE, CORNELL, AYSCOUGH, MIDDAGH, HOLT, AND HENSHAW FAMILIES Compiled by MALCOLM SANDS WILSON Privately Printed New York • 1949 Copyright 1949 by Malcolm Sands Wilson 770 Park Avenue, New York 21, N. 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.

NYC.gov. 14 Jan. 1997. Web. This article talks about the different lives the Joshua and Comfort Sands lead. Not only was this information provided but information about how life was when the brothers went into business together. It provided information about the prices of the lands that were sold, the change and decision to go more industrial with the space rather than industrial, and the different buildings that were built especially after the change. The audience of this source is very broad. It is provided for anyone looking for specific information on the topic of Joshua and Comfort Sands.

This article provided me with the basic information about the beginning times of Joshua and Comfort Sands. I found useful information about where they were born and grew up, their extended family line that was linked to the vinegar hill land and their plans about the land before the navy yard came into play. Their family lives included multiple wives and large numbers of children, what their wives also provided rather than being the expected stay at home mother like the cofounder of the St. Ann’s Church.

    VIELE RECORDS 1613-1913 Being a Revised and Enlarged Edition of the Viele Genealogy published in 1909, under the title TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY YEARS WITH A DUTCH FAMILY Of NEW YORK COMPILED AND ARRANGED BY KATHLYNE. KNICKERBACKE.R VIE.LE. (Greduale of the Women'• Law Cllw of the University of New York; Member of the Society of Colonial Dames. of America, of the Society of Dau8hters of Holland Demas, of the Hu.quenol Society, ol lhe New York Genealoaical and Bioa,aphical Society, of the Dauahters of the American Revolution, E.tc.) NE.W YORK TOBIAS A. WRIGHT 1913 THE FAMILY OF VIELE In the preface to the Viele Genealogy published in 1909 all that could with any certainty be said regarding the origin of the Family of Viele was that the three original Viele brothers, Aernout, Cornelis and Pieter-who all bore the name of Cor­ nelisen-were by that token the sons of a Cornelis, "probably of a Cornelis who never came to this country." It therefore affords the compiler great satisfaction, in which surely every member of the family will share, to announce that this Cornelis has been found in the person of Cornelis Vol­ kertszen, who in 1639 was a well-to-do trader and tavern keeper in New Amsterdam. The baptisms of four of his children are recorded on the register of the Dutch Church in New York-Aernout, 1640, Cornelis, 1643, Jacomyntje, 1645, and Pieter, 1648. These dates very nearly correspond with the dates on which these three men twenty odd years later first took up land-thus indicating that they had arrived at man's estate-Aernout in Beverwyck in 1663, Cornelis in Schenectady in 1668, and Pieter in Schenectady in 1670.

While there is every reason to believe that James Sands was a grandson of Edwin Sandys, Archbishop of York (born in 1516; died July 10, 1588), there is not sufficient evidence to justify the claim of this descent.
