Story

Daughter of Burwell Duke (1752-1824) and Frances Hawkins (1756-1829).

In Memory of Landy and Sarah (Married 1826) ALFORD

Pioneers of 1846.

Landy & Sarah Alford traveled from Missouri joining up with the Donner Party, but took a different route.

The Alfords settled here in Suisun Valley. Landy & Sarah Alford donated five acres of land for the church and cemetery in 1856. In the Alford family plot, lies an old and crumbling field stone inscribed with the words "In Memory of Landy and Sarah Alford, pioneers of 1846." The Alford's had 10 children: Nancy, Lucinda, Adeline, Mary, Margaret, Charles, Lousia, Delila, Sarah, and William.

It is said that Sarah Alford (Mother) is buried at the Suisun/Fairfield Cemetery. She divorced Landy and he is said to be buried in Round Valley in Contra Costa County, CA. Their daughter Sarah and son William are buried together here.

Although the cemetery dates back to 1851, the earliest stone found during the 1983 Survey was that of John Blake, born in Giles County, Virginia, died in Suisun Valley Sept.5, 1852.

Landy Alford died on 8-31-1871 Aged 66 years. Buried at "Round Valley" in Contra Costa County. Mrs.Alford died at the age of 88 years.

Biography

John Woodward was born on 28 March 1648/49 in Watertown, Massachusetts.
He married Rebecca Robbins, daughter of Richard Robbins and Rebecca Robbins, in 1673 in Cambridge, Massachusetts.¹
John was a weaver. He lived on the south side of the river, near Newton Upper Falls. The house that he built was still standing in 1854, and at that time was occupied by descendants of the 5th and 6th generations.²
He had a daughter Susanna who died 22 sep 1676 (not in Bond.)
His wife Rebecca died on 8 January 1695/96 in Newton, Massachusetts, leaving him a widower at age 46 .^3,4
John Woodward died on 3 November 1732 in Newton, Massachusetts, at age 83.
Inventory of his estate was taken Inventory of his estate £133 9s 7d.
***Research Conclusion: I don't think John Woodward #639 married Sarah Bancroft - so Rebecca Robbins #1087 is the mother of our ancestor, not Sarah Bancroft.⁴
***Research Conclusion: Another wife: Margaret Lemon, whom he married 17 Jul 1697 - this is another John Woodward.^5,6
***Research Conclusion: a source says John married Sarah Goodenow, but I think it's incorrect - confusing John with his son Daniel.
