  Note	Roy Grant Sanborn, only son of Ernest an Euphemia (Coffey) Sanborn, was born 15 June 1909 in North Yakima, Washington. He died 25 March 1978 of a heart attack at his home in McCleary, Washington. He was relaxing at his home when a car careened around the corner into his yard; after checking on the commotion and that the car had turned over in his yard, he reentered his house intending to call for help, but never made it to the telephone. His remains were cremated. He married Estelle (Griswald) Lane in Seattle, in the spring of 1940. They were divorced in Seattle in 1944. He remarried 11 November 1948 with Mabel (Mowery) Vincent, widow of Guy G.Vincent. She was born 14 May 1901 in Minatare, Nebraska. She passed away in the spring of 1976. Roy Sanborn left his home in Port Townsend at the early age of 16 years, living with an uncle, George Coffey, in Benton City, Washington, for a while. Two years later he enlisted in the Coast Guard at Port Townsend. Upon his discharge in December 1931, he joined the Longshoreman Union in Port Townsend, employed in 'the loading of ships at the paper mill'. In 1942 he transferred to the Seattle Longshoreman Union where he was employed on the Seattle docks. He retied in the early 1970's when his wife became quite ill, so he could tend her. He had no children of his own, even though he helped raise part of Mabel's who were still young people at the time of their marriage. Roy Sanborn was an avid hunter and fisherman, like so many of the Sanborn family and related families.
