family name was Gilliland until changed by John Sanford

Gililland in 1860. However, property records from Lincoln County

Missouri have all family members recorded as Gililland as early

as 1825, including John Sanford's grandfather, John Richardson

Gililland, and his father, Allen Johnson Gililland. In addition,

all the grave markers in the Sulphur Lick and Fairview

Cemeteries predating 1850 spell the name Gililland.

John died in Simpson County, Kentucky, 1849, at the home of one

of his daughters, Martha Ann (Gilliland) Reeder.
