BiographyBorn in Sandgate, Vermont, Sanderson attended Burr Seminary, Williams College, and Union College, graduating from the last in 1846; he was soon admitted to the bar in New York state.[1][2][3][4] He then moved to Florida where he went into practice with his older brother, John, in Jacksonville. In December 1847, Sanderson was named assistant secretary to the president of the Florida Senate.[5] In August 1850, he visited Washington, D.C.[6] Later in 1850, he sailed to California via the Strait of Magellan and settled in Coloma. As a Democrat, Sanderson was elected district attorney in El Dorado County. In June 1861, during the American Civil War, he spoke against the secessionist sentiment at the Breckenridge Democratic Party convention.[7] He became a Republican and backed Leland Stanford for Governor of California in the November 1861 election, serving on a committee to organize the inaugural ball.[8] In November 1862, Sanderson ran on the Union branch of the Democratic Party ticket and was elected to the California State Assembly from El Dorado.[9][10] The following year, under a constitutional amendment reorganizing the courts, all of the seats of the Supreme Court of California were open for election.[11] In June 1863, Sanderson was nominated by the Republicans.[12] In October 1863, he was elected, and by the drawing of lots among the new justices he received the short, two-year term.[13][11] Under the rules of the court, the justice with the shortest term served as Chief Justice, and so he held the position from January 2, 1864, to January 1866, when his term expired.[11] In November 1865, he beat Democrat H. H. Hartley, and was re-elected to the Court as an Associate Justice, serving from January 1866 to January 4, 1870.[14][15][16][17] In 1870, he resigned from the court to head the legal department at the Southern Pacific Railroad, a post he held for the next 16 years.[18][19][20][21] Sanderson died June 24, 1886, at his home in San Francisco.[22] Personal lifeOn March 3, 1858, Sanderson married Margaret Beatty Ormsby (c. 1839 – October 21, 1913) of Sacramento, California.[23][22] They had four daughters, including Sibyl Sanderson, a notable operatic soprano.
