Cort and Sancho

I am attempting to account for all the members of the kinship of Sancho. This is part of the process of preparing the Sancho Family Tree. I am looking particularly for members of the kinship of Sancho. Therefore, I am hereby asking you to please point me to the members, relatives, friends and associates of the following kinships of ABRAMS, BATSON, BENJAMIN, BEST, BOATSWAIN, CAMPBELL, CHRISTIAN, CORT, CRANDON, DAVIS, DOWNER, FINGAL, FRASER, FRESO, GEORGE, HAYNES, HAZEL, HOMER, KING, LA FLEUR, LANCASTER, LEITCH, MARKS, MOORE, NILES, NURSE, PATTERSON, QUINTIN, REYNOLDS, ROSS, SANCHO, SMITH, WILLIAMS, WILSON and YOUNG - and several others of the Corentyne Coast, the Canje River Basin, New Amsterdam, West Coast Berbice, and other locations in Berbice. The need is to identify the ancestor of Sancho of Berbice. Thereby link the people of Sancho of Berbice to Bentick Sancho, John Sancho, Tuckness Sancho, and George Sancho, of the East Coast of Demerara. I am also researching the kinships of Sancho, resident elsewhere in Guyana, the Caribbean and wherever on earth.

Cort and Sancho Unions on East Coast of Demerara. Gustavus Sancho, my uncle's son, and  Manelva Cort, both of Victoria Village, East Coast Demerara, formed a union. This union reproduced seven children; four daughters and three sons. Mildred Sancho, daughter of my grand Uncle and Mr. Cort (first Name Unknown) reproduced seven children; three females and four males. One of the daughters is said to reproduce fifteen children. She resides in Georgetown. A son known as either Winston Sancho or Winston Cort resides at Jonestown Mahaica. I heard it said that Forbes Burnham told either my Uncle Oswald or my First-Cousin Leebert Sancho, and/or both, that, Cort of Rose Hall, Canje and Corentyne are members of the kinship of Sancho.
