The family was raised in ballston spa. He is buried in the Ballston Spa cemetery next to the Ballston spa highschool. He had a son named Sanborn that was killed at 11 years age by a gig. He was caught up in a scheme to defraud a judge in Clifton Park and spent some time in jail and fined. Believe he died at the age of 57. His father Sanbun wrote in a 12 page pamphlet how his sons have taken opposite sides of the political spectrum and he wishes they didn't return from Queenstown. As a shirt tail relative I would love to know if the website info came from a journel and if so where could I read it. great stuff here. thank you for keeping history alive.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2957151907879594417.post-6145936815552454242014-03-10T10:16:43.226-04:002014-03-10T10:16:43.226-04:00That's pretty interesting.
