Greetings, Jules123, and a warm welcome to Rootschat.  It's always fun to find a new cousin.

Your SANDYS ancestors include Edwin SANDYS, Archbishop of York (d1588), co-author of the "Bishops' Bible" of 1568 and Sir Edwin SANDYS MP (1561-1629), treasurer of the Virginia Company - a key figure in the settlement of America and an irritant to King James.

My Basil SANDYS was the son of my 4xgreat-grandfather Edwin George SANDYS (b1764) who was the brother of your John Percy SANDYS.  Their parents were Nehemiah SANDYS and Elizabeth RYVES.

I don't want to spoil your fun in researching this extraordinary line, but I have much information so do contact me if I can help.

All the best
Philip

Wow wow wow. I knew none of this. I was about to go to bed and am now like a child in a candy shop with all this. Please please feel free to spoil my researching fun at any time with info :-). I'm on Ancestry Jules2021 and wonder if we have shared DNA.
