  1. 2.  Benjamin Sanford Descendancy chart to this point (1.Esther1) was born in ca 1841 in Illinois; died about 1911 in Aurum, White Pine County, Nevada.

    Notes:

    Ben never married, went to Aurum, Nevada where he had mining claims and where he died. Aurum, North Spring Valley, White Pine, Nevada - Ben Sanford was the postmaster and storekeeper in 1897. Offical records show him as postmaster for Aurum from 11Oct1904-14Sep1911. Aurum became a ghosttown in mid 1920's.

    Aurum, like Muncy Creek, Ruby Hill and Centerville, was a short-lived camp. Jim McNulty, engaged in the hotel and mercantile business, was one of the last men to leave the town. Another firm which remained in Aurum after the place was virtually deserted was that of Simon Davis and Ben Sanford, known as Sanford and Davis, who were able to stay in the district owing to the fact that they secured a great deal of trade from stockmen throughout the county. The two men also prospected the hills for minerals and met with much success in the '80s. The writer has good reason to remember a contract he secured from Sanford & Davis in 1889 to haul three hundred tons of high-grade silver ore by freight team to Wells, from which point it was consigned over the Southern Pacific and Oregon Short Line to Salt Lake.
