Saffold Family Pioneers

Patriarchs and Cousins 
Two cousins, Reuben Saffold and Seaborn Jones Saffold, were leaders of their chosen professions of law and medicine. They sired what have become known as the "Alabama Saffolds" and the "Georgia Saffolds." Both were grandsons of William Saffold I and Temperance Shore.
