I am looking for information on my ancestor Daniel SANSBURY. He settled in SC, first appearing in Charleston, SC in about 1780. But I believe that he came from Maryland (there are a number of SANSBURYs in Maryland). He was born about 1750. He m. Mary and had these children: John, William, Daniel, James, Absalom, Ann, Elias, Elizabeth and Mary. There was a William SANSBURY in Prince George Co., Maryland in the early 1700s, and I wonder if there might not be some connection. Any leads would be very much appreciated. Thanks.

Looking for information on Daniel SANSBURY (b. about 1750) He settled in Darlington Co., SC after the Rev. War, but I believe that he might have been one of the Marylanders who had "gone to Carolina." There are a number of SANSBURYs in Maryland -- in Prince George, Frederick, Calvert and Talbot counties -- and I expect that there is a connection between them and my Daniel SANSBURY. Daniel m. Mary and had these children: John, William, Daniel, James, Absalom, Ann, Elias, Elizabeth and Mary. Any leads would be appreciated, as I have been at a dead end on this line for too long. Thanks.
