Query: SANDERS/POWELL of Knox County, Indiana

SANDERS/POWELL—Seeking information on the ancestors of William SANDERS (born February 1875 in Indiana; died after 1930). His parents were supposedly born in Kentucky. He married Ann Eliza POWELL (born April 1871 in Indiana; died after 1930; daughter of Lemuel V. Powell and Rosaline L. TUCKER) on 26 November 1893 in Knox County, Indiana.

William and “Anna” Sanders were in the 1900-1930 censuses in Sandborn (Vigo Township), Knox County, Indiana. They had children:

--Cecil (born 27 July 1894 in Indiana; died after 1910)
--Anna or Orma (born June 1895 in Indiana; died after 1910)
--Delmar Arthur (born 3 August 1896 in Sandborn, Knox County, Indiana; died 10 March 1943 in Los Angeles, California; buried in Los Angeles National Cemetery)
--Ormel (born September 1899 in Indiana; died after 1910)
--Gladys (born 22 January 1902 in Knox County, Indiana; died after 1920)
--?Beda? or ? Dortha? (born 15 August 1904 in Knox County, Indiana; died after 1920)
--Edward Ray (born 10 July 1907 in Knox County, Indiana; died after 1930)

When did William Sanders die? Where is he buried? He is listed in the 1930 census as John W. Sanders, so William may be his middle name.
