Sanders Family
Hello Mr. Sanders: I am checking to see if I can find any information about the Sanders. I will post it here. Thanks for your inquiry.

The first documentation of an African-American settler in Mecosta County Michigan was James Guy, who on May 30, 1861, obtained 160 acres in Wheatland Township. By 1873 African-Americans owned about 1,392 acres. The Homestead Act of 1862 allowed each settler 160 acres in Rolland Township. Most of the land where Remus sits at that time was owned by African-Americans.
