Notes for John Sandige



From the Martin Sandidge manuscript:

John Sandidge (herein identified as John Sandige II for clarification purposes), born about 1666, presumed to be the son of Colonel James Sandidge, settled in New Kent County, Virginia, prior to October 1695. About 1690, he had married Mary Vaughn, born about 1670, in England. His name appears on the Quit Rent Roll in New Kent County in 1704. Other New Kent County records mention him as being paid as a "chain carrier" (a surveyor). The American Compendium of Genealogy, Vol. IV, states that the wife of John Sandige was Catherine, daughter of Philip and Isabella (Hart) Pendleton. However, this is believed to be an error. There is no information as to the identity of John's mother or any brothers or sisters. John Sandige II died in 1708, in New Kent County, Virginia. His wife, Mary Vaughn Sandige, died after 1707, in Virginia.


The York manuscript also says John Sandidge is "presumed to be a son of Col. James Sandidge" and notes a source that says Catherine Pendleton was wife of John Sandidge, but says he believes it to be an error.


Sorrels Genealogy spells the last name Sandridge. Some sources spell it Sandidge. Spelling of Sandige here follows Martin Sandidge.
