The author desires to thank sincerely the friends by whose kind aid these facts have been collected and publisned. He is much indebted to those n1embers of the American Sanborn family .who have subscribed to the search; and the warmest thanks are also due to English friends who have with unfailing and kindly courtesy helped in the investigations made during the past twelve 1nonths.

THE SAMBORNES OF ENGLAND AND AMERICA.

By V. C. SANBORN, of Concord, }lass.

HE New Hampshire family of Sanborn furnishes an example in T that State of the same sort as that furnished by the M.assachu­ aette family of Greenleaf, lately mentioned in the REGISTER. It deserves better treatment genealogically than it haa yet received, but in this respect it is no worse off than m;1n y other of the oldest families of New Hampshire, notably those of Blake, Dalton and BachiJer. True, the obscure origin of the last two families has been eomewhat!ighted up by Mr. ,Vhitmore's article in the REGISTER, of 1873, but much Eitill remains to be done. The origin of the Sanborn family was not only shrouded in dark­ nese , hut the few attempt8 made to discover the first ancestor's home hal" 1.: been unsuoceasful, and have only served to deepen the shade of obacurity. While other families ha\·e joined together to eearch for their common origin, the Sanborn family has not succeeded in keep­ ing up a family association ; although one was formed in 1853 at Manchester, N. H., which accomplished little. In the July and October number:1 of the REGISTER for 1856 a methodical Sanborn genf.dogy was i8@ued by Dr. Nathan Sanborn, which, however, was incomplete both in length and breadth. Admirable u far as it wen~, this genealogy was, perhaps, issued prematurely, and is now of but little importance as regards the earlier and later genera­ tir 18. The generntions after the third as far as the seventh, are a · ,st all that could be desired., but the first, second and last kw ~-aerations are ,·ery incomplete. There are defects, which may be , owing to its not bt.>ing published as a separate work, but as an arti­ cle in a periodical, where limited space could be given it. No wills are copied, no extract.a from court records or deeds made, which might be 2 . of value, and what information might have been found, e,·en in 1853, the infancy of N cw England genealogy, was not extracted for the conyenience of future in,·estigators. If such material hnd been fur­ nished to Dr. Sanborn, or if he could have found it for himself. his work woul( u )rne might have taken its name, or to which it might have given it. One is 8ambourne in ,v arwickshire, mentioned in Dr. Sanborn'e printed genealogy, but a few miles from .Alcester, a great market-town ; and the other (San088C8sed lands in Tims bury arnl X unny, in Somersctshirc, :m

I ha,·e only been able so far to ,·erify one of the marriages in the pedigree, that of John Samborne with Dorothy Tichbourne. This marriage is given in Berry's Ilants Pedigrees, and was quoted by Mr. D. H. Sanborn in his article in the REGISTER in 1858. With his usual incorrectness he has dated the marriage almost a century later than it really was, his date being 1600, whereas the real date was no later than 1520. By Berry this John Sambome is quoted as being of Berkshire, but that might easily be a mistake. As to the rest of the pedigree (A) I can only say that, if two or three genera­ tions between Sir John 1 Sambueren and John1 Sambueren who mar­ ried a daughter of Talboys of Kyme, were supposed to be omitted, the dates would tally correctly with the corresponding historical dates. I should not wonder if, with this emendation, the pedigree were correct as it stands. .As to the other pedigrees of the name of Sambome, there is, in the Somersetshire Visitation of 1623, printed by the Ha.rleian Society, a pedigree ( B) of Samborne going back as far as a John Sam borne who married a daughter of--,Villough­ hy, and in the Oxford8hire Visitation of 15 7 4 and 1634, there is aped­ igree (C) of Samboume going back as far ns ,villinm Samboume, who married a daughter and heir of Sir ,\rilliam Lu8hcll. In the 1531 Visitation of Berkshire, lately published by the llarlcian So­ ciety, there is a pedigree ( D) of the family descended fro1n the Sunning branch, but neither of the~m fan!iliee goeR bnck ~ny farther than the beginning of the fifteenth century, and I have not been able to find any conclusive connecting proof farther back than the Herald's Visitations. I find, however, mention of Saudcburne ( a misprint for Sande­ burne), ancient for Sambornc, as Sandebadge and Sandeways for Sambach and Samwaies, Sambourne and Sumburne (possibly allied, resident at Sombourne in IIampshire) in the thirteenth nnd four­ teenth centuries. The earliest record which I have been able to find i8 dated in Wiltshire, in 1211, when it is said: "Assisa venit recognit. si Julianus de Saudeburne injnste et sine judico dissaisivit Haurisiam et Surram de libero tenemento suo in Saudebarne post primam coronationem Domini Regis ss. Et Haurisiam et Surram non venientes Julianus teneat iu pace et Haurisiam et Surram in m;sericordia quia non prosequuntur et plegitur est in imperatore ..•• " Pl.acita-Wilta. 12 J obis I.-1211. The next extracts relative to the name as it now stands, are in the reign of Edward III. (1327-1377), and they show the home of one Robert de Sambourne to have been in Somersetshire, where, as I have said, a branch was settled in the fifteenth century. This Rob­ ert de Sambourne seems to have been a churchman, a prominent 5 member of a church at Jevele or Yvele ( modern Y eo,·il, a town of Somerset8hire situateJ in the extreme south on the river Yeo, while Timsbury is in the extreme north of the county, or that part where Bath is situated). I find five extracts relati\·e to Hobert in the llotuli Original ium, or lists of grants, etc., made during the reign of E
