On November 27th 1771 Lewis Sanders was paid 500 Pounds of tobacco for the care of Eleanor Sanders (his mother?). Page 123, Film 1421477.Although we are reduced to speculation here, I think it’s likely this Eleanor was Nellie Daniel, the mother of Lewis, Jr. If Lewis, Sr. and Nellie were both born in the mid 1690s, as we think, then Nellie would have been about 75 or so in 1770. If this is she, she probably didn’t live much longer.
