DEATH BY DROWNING
On Saturday afternoon last, Mr. C. B. Kryenhoff, J.P., and a jury, sat at the vigilance courthouse, and enquired into the death of the infant Margaret Sancho, who was drowned at Friendship, on Thursday last. Sarah Pieters, mother of the child, on being examined said: I knew Margaret Sancho; she was my child. I left her in my room with her little brother and went to the shop to buy food. This was about 4 o’clock in the afternoon. On returning from the shop I saw her in the trench. She was not dead. I took her out and put her on the dam alongside the trench. She died on the dam. I then carried the body into the yard, and reported the matter to the police. Dr. Egan examined the body on the 19th. My house was about 18 roods from the shop, and one and a half roods from the trench into which the child fell. There is a plant across the trench about one feet wide. The two children were shut up in the room before I went out. When I returned, I found the door open. I presume the bigger child opened the door. It was not locked, only closed. The trench was full of water. By a Juror: this was the first occasion I left the children together. After I took the child from the trench, Mrs. Willis came and rolled it on the ground. It died whilst being rolled. I never allowed both children to play together in the trench. Julia Willis and Elizabeth Fitzgerald having given evidence, the jury returned a verdict of accidental drowning.

MINERS B SANCHO AND SIMON; SANCHO, DOUGLAS AND SANCHO,
Have you heard of the following? If you have will, you please explain the circumstances. By that I am referring to the subject matter, including the communities in which they resided, and their immediate relatives
Also I intend to put together a digital file showing the probable family links B a possible proverbial family tree if you will B some will be absolutely accurate B other would be my emotional thought process at work B gut feelings B conjecture. I believe it would be possible for researchers in the future to follow my thinking. They will be charged with the task to try as well as they may to set the records straight B as accurately as humanly possible.
Why would Lambert Tuckness Sancho assault Maria Waith and her daughter Alice Waith?

OBSERVATIONS:
Sancho is mentioned some 148 times in the Daily Chronicle newspaper, between October 1880 and December 1899. Sancho Panza is mentioned on a number of occasions. Lambert Tuckness Sancho is found most often, Allick, twice and Christy, once. Ignatius Sancho (1729-1780) is not found therein. There are also a few letters written by Lambert Tuckness Sancho. The articles reveal our representatives were no angels. They are of course humans. Therefore, they suffered the consequences of being man under nature. They were indicted on numerous occasions in Criminal and civil matters in the Court system of the colony of British Guiana.

Uncle Christy was said to be a boy of about twelve years old in 1892. I believe Guianese would be able to somewhat tell the age of a youngster. Lambert Tuckness Sancho was charged with assaulting with both males and females. He was assaulted on several occasions. His name is, however, most often found in articles respecting the local government administration of the villages of Nabaclis and Golden Grove. William Sancho also known as John Glasgow, was simply stated a repeat offender. He was into petty Larceny and burglaries. A number of articles also showed our females it bad light. However, perhaps, the two most intriguing pieces of information found in the articles showed our people were residing in the Corentyne and Canje districts in Berbice. The other informs that Bentinck Sancho had a wife named Sarah Sancho, and a son named Charles Sancho before 1860. Also, a Sancho of Berbice was sent an unclaimed mail from Suriname.
Lambert Tuckness Sancho was a butcher. He was also an Overseer of the Local Authority of Golden Grove and Nabaclis.
The articles, for the most part, prove, that our immediate relatives took great pains to prevent their off springs from being enlightened respecting the pattern if behavior our ancestors displayed. Regardless our people must learn and accept the simple truths. The fact, that human beings are what we are B and thus we are all going to do the things that humans do, and did and will do for we are confined by the realities of being humans. Long live Muriel Sancho, Long live Allick Sancho, Lambert Tuckness Sancho, Bentick Sancho, Christy Sancho and all those who came and left before us.
William Frederick Sancho was a Sergeant in the Rural constabulary. Charlotte Sancho was a driver at Plantation Cove and John.
I did not check for Elliott, Sandy, Bentick (Bentinck) and Campbell and others. I intend to so do in a few days.
