| James Sanborn I who had a son>>>> |
| nightfox91 | Searching for any information on James Sanborn I who had a son, James Sanborn II D.O.B. January 14, 1856, who was a merchant marine that traveled from Norway by way of England to Hawaii where he married Punahoa Holi Moano around 1885. Any information on either James I or II would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You

My grandmother, Julia Sanborn, was one of nine children of James and Mary Sanborn of Ookala, Hawaii. She was born in 1916 on the homestead on Ookala. We believe that there is a realation but her father James Sanborn would have been born later than 1856. Please contact us with any additional information. |
| brandiwong | Hi,
James Sanborn, who passed away in 1900 and married a Hawaiian lady (the only name I have for her is Punohu which is very similar to the name of the lady you mention) in Ookala had a son named James as well. My Tutu remembers him - he was called Jim. Among the other siblings - and I can't remember them all, were Robert (my grandmother's father) and Lily. Robert was born in 1893, and though I don't know the birthdates of the others, James' son James (Robert's brother) had to be at least 16 by the time the Julia you mention was born. So, it is possible that there is a connection. My grandmother has also mentioned a story of a land issue among James (Jim), Robert, Lily and the other siblings. I think, James (Jim) bought some land from another brother(?) of theirs in the Ookala area which could put him right where Julia Sanborn was born (I don't know Julia Sanborn, btw).
Hope this helps. I don't know anything about James Sanborn, but I am on the lookout. |
