    Notes:

    ||||
    There is mention of earlier Landers situated in the Massachusetts area, but it is uncertain whether they are directly related to the this William Lander.
    According to the "Pioneers of Massachusetts", page 279, comes the information that a Thomas Lannder or Lannders, age 22, came on the ship "Abigail" in July, 1635. He settled at Sandwich.He married Jane Kerbie on July 2, 1651, and had three children: John, born 2 January 1653; Martha, born 7 March 1654, and Mary, born 23 January 1656. Thomas Lannder died 11 November 1675.
    There are numerous mentions of a John Lander, of uncertain connection to our known Lander ancestors. John Lander was granted land by the Selectmen of Salem, Massachusetts on 5 April1672, and was a witness in the Court of Essex County, Massachusetts in 1674 (from the "Essex Aniquarian" Volume 9, pp. 38-41).
    A John Lander, along with his wife, were presented for committing fornication before marriage, and they were sentenced to either be whipped or pay a fine (from the Records and Files ofthe Essex County Quarterly Courts, Volume VI, July 20, 1675).
    John Lander and wife Sarah Glanfield, daughter of Robert Glanfield, conveyed part of Mr. Glanfield's house to a Samuel Carlton of Salem, Massachusetts on 30 December 1732 (EssexAntiquarian, Volume 10, p. 163).
    Supposedly, many of the Essex County records were destroyed in a fire, making connection between our William Lander and previous Landers somewhat dubious.

    William married Mary (Polly) Marlett. Mary (daughter of Gideon Marlett and Mary Quackenbush) was born on 15 Apr 1783 in Charleston, Montgomery Co, New York; died on 21 Nov 1840. [Group Sheet]

    Notes:

    Excerpts from the October 30, 1971 Times Leader (Chardon Ohio) newspaper column titled "Posts' 60 years together a 'good life'":

    Most of the large bridges in the county built since 1940 were constructed under his supervision while he was an engineer with the State of Ohio.

    The first graduate of Chester High School in 1900, he was born in the Post family homestead, a beautiful century home, on Sperry Road in Chesterland.

    After graduation he taught in the district school for awhile before obtaining an engineering degree at Valparaiso University. Then back to teaching a bit before moving to Cleveland to work for the city's engineering department.

    The marriage bond of James and Emma Post was 60 years strong Thursday as the quietly celebrated their anniversary at their home in Chesterland.

    Mr. Post was a widower with four children when they met in Cleveland. A year later they were married and "Emma raised the children as though they were her own" he said.

    At 90, Mr. Post is Chester Township's oldest native born resident.

    "Sixty years ago today," Mr. Post recalled, "there was snow on the ground. It was a dreary day. Today it's the complete opposite."

    "My father was a veteran of the Civil War. He voted for Lincoln in his second term." The family has been Republican in its politics ever since, he explained.

    "If you have a difference of opinion, keep it to yourself" Mr. Post advised young marrieds.

    The Posts life has had its sorrows. They were wiped out in the depression and Jean, the only child born to them, died at the age of nineteen. The loss is still keenly felt.

    "I never thought we'd live to see our 60th anniversary," Mrs. Post said wonderingly. "Sixty years, woman." Mr. Post teased. "That's a long time."

    James married Ethel M. Kieffer on 19 Aug 1903 in Geauga County, Ohio. Ethel (daughter of Edward H. Kieffer and Mary Knapp, daughter of Charles W. Labau and Lillie Minnie (nee Unknown) Labau) was born on 14 Sep 1883 in Cleveland, Cuyahoga, Ohio; died on 25 Feb 1911 in Ohio. [Group Sheet]
