Notes:

Comments (Sanford G Slayton b. 1 Nov 1802 , Pittsylvania, Virginia, USA d. 6 Mar 1868 , Marion, Texas, USA): Mary Annabell Clark and Sanford Slayton are my father's GGrandparents. Mary Annabell died in Marion County, Texas. Source: Family Bible owned by Lawrence family and numerous descendants. It is believed that they are buried in unmarked graves on the Sanford Slayton Plantation on the north shore of Lake of The Pines. I have visited with the owner of the land. It was sold off and separated from the land when a highway was cut through Sanford's former land when my father was a boy. He remembered seeing tombstones there when a boy but a house was build over the graves. About 20 years ago another owner was having land prepared for another building and workmen unearthed some bones. The decision was made to build on another part of the property and leave the former housesite as a park/garden. We also believe (but cannot prove) that Mary Annabell's and Sanford's daughter Catherine Aug usta and husband William J Fergusson and several of their children are also buried there. [Faith Chatham]
