His youngest son, James Saunders wrote a memoir of the Saunders Family in 1824, of fifteen pages. His grandson, Col. Wm. L. Saunders, of North Carolina, had printed many years ago and distributed among his relatives. When the author wrote his memoir he was 60 years old. Moreover,he lived with,and survived his parents and fell heir to all the family records.This accounts for the specialty in dates which are reflected in this tree.
