Note: A descendant of Revolutionary soldier, Pvt. Solomon Sanders of Craven Co., NC (1740-1837), Paul began researching his Sanders family heritage in the early 1960's. He ultimately shared his findings with his family and friends by privately publishing his work (The Sanders Family of Grundy County TN).
I corresponded with Mr. Sanders on several occasions and found him to be quite helpful and kind. Thanks for your contributions Paul!
