When war was declared between the North and South he enlisted in the 121st Indiana Infantry (9th Indiana Cavalry) and was first sergeant of Company D. He fought at the battles of Nashville, Franklin, Wilson's Creek. Brentwood, Little Harpeth, Sugar Crock and others. He became afflicted with the prevailing scourge of measles and was confined to the army hospital for a few months. Aside from this disease he suffered no serious trouble as a result of his arduous experience during the war. After the close of his war service he returned to his home in Indiana and married. He farmed in Indiana until February 18, 1885, and then migrated to Nemaha County, Kansas, and bought 160 acres of land in section 30, Rock Creek Township. At the time of his purchase of the Sanford home place it was improved very scantily, with a small house and a pole shelter for the live stock with the usual pioneer's roof made of prairie grass. Mr. Sanford built many improvements on the place more in keeping with his ideas of what a farm should have, and engaged in the breeding of Morgan horses. His farm consisted of 260 acres well improved at the time of his death on March 15, 1915. He was a member of the Masonic order and was well and favorably known throughout Nemaha County. He was a son of Edward and Hepsabeth (Macy) Sanford, natives of Nantucket Island, whose ancestry was descended from English immigrants who came from the ancestral home of the family in England soon after the landing of the Pilgrims at Plymouth, Mass, in 1620. A record of this old American family which dates back from the sixteenth century is in existence. Descendants of Edward Sanford and his brothers reside in Indiana and various states of the Midwest. The first settlement of the family when its members left their old New England home was in the Western Reserve of Ohio, where many revolutionary grants were made to revolutionary soldiers and their children.
