I believe the key to unlocking the past, the story of Sancho will be found primarily within the history of the African Villages in Guyana. The kinship of Sancho is part of the history of Guyana, and in deed the Global Black Experience. Sancho, I am sure has numerous surnames, and resident in several communities, across the globe. However, members of the kinship of Sancho is found primarily, in Guyana, Barbados, St. Vincent, Grenada, Trinidad & Tobago, Antigua, Cayenne, Liberia, Sierra Leone, United Kingdom, United States and Canada. The aim is to identify, locate and communicate with the members. Thereby ascertaining as accurately as humanly possible – the story of the people of Sancho. Every man ought to know thyself. Knowledge of self must include an intimate knowledge of the journey of the ancestors, your personal history. A man must know and not believe. How are persons mentioned below members of the kinship of Sancho? I understand the following; Teasie Johnson is the grand mother of Cecil and Megan Hughes. Agnes Bastiani is also a fore-parent of Alice "Big Auntie" Barnwell, Kaneo Barnwell, and Cain Top Barnwell. The Barnwell family resided in the following villages; Annandale, Beterverwagting, Buxton, and Triumph. Sarah Johnson married Pirat Roberts - and the union issued three sons. Marie Lousie Parkinson married William Whyte (Dispenser) and their children are Cyril and Lydia. Lydia Whyte married Bamfield. There are tombs containing the remains of Arthur Gill, his wife, and sons; George Gill and Theodore Gill in the Sancho plot in Golden Grove cemetery. I am told members of the kinships of Batson, Campbell, Cort, Fraser, George, Hazel, Leitch, Ralph, Reynolds, Ross, Smith, Victor, and Wilson of Corentyne, and Canje and Berbice are relatives of members, and/ or members of the kinship of Sancho;.

How is Sarah Louise Mathilda Denbow a relative of the descendants of Alexander Sancho and Rachel Campbell?
What is the relationship between Sancho and the following ; James Nathaniel Smith (Buxton), Duncan Smith, and Joseph Yaw (Lusignan), William David Smith, Thomas David Smith (Enmore), James Alexander Smith, John Yaw, Edmund Josephus Paul, Edward Paul, Samuel Paul (Friendship), and James Paul?
What is the relationship between Sarrabo, Sancho, and Simon? Who is James Sancho who died on April 21, 1931 in Brooklyn, New York City, USA? Who are the immediate relatives of Mary Sancho, wife of Bentick Sancho? Who is the mother, and other immediate relatives of Cristobel Sancho aka Auntie Roberts? Who are the children of Christopher Bentick Sancho, Clarence Sancho, and Edmund Sancho?
Who are the members of Sancho who were miners and as late as 1902 were partners with Sancho, Chester & Sancho, Reece & Sancho, Gustavus Sancho and Hamer, Stanley Sancho and Margaret Smith Who are the immediate relatives of Prince Sancho (Montreal), his children, and their mothers, and his siblings?
Sancho, Chester & Sancho and Sancho & Reece: Gold Miners in 1902 Who are they? I believe they are Sancho of Friendship. I am aware Sancho, Chester & Sancho – and Sancho & Reece were Gold/ Diamond Miners in 1902. Who are those Sancho family members? I accessed the Reports of the Commissioner of the Department of Lands and Mines issued for that year, 1902 in the SIBL Research Library in New York City. The Science, Industry and Business Library, is located at 188 Madison Avenue, New York, NY 10016 I was hoping to obtain the names of perhaps, the three members of the Sancho family, Chester and Reece. I quickly scanned the pages of the Reports of the Commissioner of the Department of Lands and Mines issued for the years 1899 through 1954; I noted several outstanding features of the reports between 1899 and 1915; They are the listing of deaths of workers who died accidentally except by drowning Land tenure for East Indians The vast amount of lawyers who owned claims for gold, diamond and Timber Numerous corporations which owned claims and all likely got rich on the blood sweat of the working class as they had done on the plantations. I noticed Wm. Chester (Probably William Chester) died on May 3, 1911 and J. Reece died on June 19, 1911. Could it be they are the members and/ or associates of Sancho?
I believe by consulting the published reports of the deaths of Chester and Reece; I may be able to access the names of the Sancho family members. I suspect they are from Golden Grove and Nabaclis and or Buxton and Friendship districts. I am aware; Gustavus Sancho and Pat. Hamer was residents of Buxton and Friendship Village District and participants in the gold mining business in 1924. In 1935, Stanley Sancho and Margaret Smith were in the gold mining business and were represented by Edmund Fitzgerald Fredericks. Therefore, I suppose Stanley Sancho and Margaret Smith were of Buxton and Friendship Village District. I suspect these Sancho family members are immediate relatives of each other.
I am hereby requesting you point researchers to the following and /or their immediate relatives – soonest – thank you ever so very much;

Greetings Mlilwana:
It is a pleasure contacting you and commending you on your research of the Sancho descendants of Trinidad.
I am Jean Williams Delwin, the mother of Gail and Deanne who recently emailed you, but my other children are Danny, Terry, Donna, Denise, and Carleene. I am also the elder sister of Eunice Williams (Len). We also had a brother who is deceased named Beresford Gay. We are the Great grandchildren of John Sancho.
My mother Sarah Williams (God rest her soul) and her siblings Popsi, Leonard, Dora, and Hilton (all of whom are deceased), were the grandchildren of John and Mary Elizabeth Sancho. They all lived with their grandparents John and Elizabeth Sancho. Ann Sancho Tuitt was their mother. Her brother's name was Lindsey Sancho. Lindsey Sancho had one daughter whose name was Violet Sancho who later married a Castle.
It is Ann and Lindsey's offspring, and their children who are the descendants of the Sancho tribe of Trinidad. The Marcano's, Weston's, Innocence, Brereton and Fyfies were in-laws to John Sancho since they were Mary Elizabeth Sancho's sisters.
According to my mother's words; John and Elizabeth Sancho were from the 'Fifth Company' Moruga (and not Mayaro) Trinidad. I do not know if John Sancho originally resided in Mayaro and may have later moved to Moruga. They owned land in Moruga. I do not know if John Sancho my great grandfather may have had other children besides Ann and Lindsey. My mother referred to John Sancho as papa, and when she spoke of him she mentioned him always wearing a gold bracelet. He was deceased before his wife and they (God bless their souls) were both buried at the Anglican cemetery in Princess town. I believe some of these records could be in the Anglican Church. I really do not know if the Indians and Chinese Sancho's of 'Fifth Co. Moruga' are also his descendants.
John Sancho's descendants from their daughter Ann Tuitt Williams are: Williams, Batiste, Delwin, Brereton, David, Truesdale, Gay, Magaresh and Valentine. These all make up the Sancho tribe from Trinidad. John Sancho's descendants from their son Lindsey would be Castle and Lyons.
Those from Ann's line reside in Trinidad, the United States, Canada and England. Those from Lindsey (from what I can recall) went to Point Fortin Trinidad. I too would like to know if the Indian and Chinese Sancho's of Moruga are also John Sancho's descendants.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Jean Williams Again, I am not an expert; I am not an eyewitness – However, I am a conscious crusader. I am a Truth Seeker in the wilderness seeking the true history of our people. I depend on your cooperation to shine light on the accurate story of our people. God Bless you, today and always for cooperating with one of the people. |
