I am a descendant of John Anders b. 1797 in Virginia. His son David A. Anders (by his 1st of 3 wives) fathered Phillip Mitchell Anders. Phillip's son Captain "Capp" Anders had a son, Alvin Sherman Anders who married Dassie Lee Smith. Alvin and Dassie had eleven children, one of which is my mother.

Since most families were having a large number of kids, I know that I must have hundreds of cousins out there. I hope a few will run across this post and contact me through my website at http://www.pruden.net
