From Annual Obituary Notices of Eminent Persons Who Have Died in the United States (1857-1858)REV. PETER P. SANDFORD, D.D., Tarrytown, N. Y., Jan. 14, a?. 75. Dr. S. "was born," quoting his own language, in the town of New Barbadoes, (now Lodi,) Bergen Co., N. J., Feb. 28, 1781. "My ancestors had resided in the place of my birth for several generations. ... My father, whose name was Peter, was their youngest child. When a young man, he entered on board a privateer vessel commanded by Capt. S. Davis, a distant relative, in which he spent a few months. With this exception, he spent the whole of his life in the neighborhood of his birth. He inherited a part of the estate of his ancestors, and lived till within a few months of his death on the same spot on which he was born. My mother's maiden name was Eleanor Turner. Her father was for several years sheriff of Bergen Co.; and her maternal grandmother was a Sandford, descended from the same ancestry with ourselves. They married young, and lived together about 70 years, and in the same house, with the exception of enlargement and repairs, in which my father was born. They were persons of very temperate habits through life, of strict moral honesty, of great integrity, of almost unbounded hospitality, and during many years professors of religion. They had eleven children, ten of whom, seven sons and three daughters, lived to be fathers and mothers.
