William Robertson Sandbach (1813-1891) was a West-India merchant who translated Ottema's Dutch 1872 Oera Linda translation (and introduction) into English, possibly helped by his wife Jkvr. Sara Maria van Capellen (1807-1881), who had been lady-in-waiting to princess Sophie of Württemberg (1818-1877), married in 1839 to prince William Alexander P.F.L. of Orange (1817-1890), who would become king William III in 1849. The translation was published in 1876 as 'The Oera Linda Book' by Trübner & Co. (London). No other works by him are known but he did add a translator's preface to the book. Sandbach's mother (Elizabeth Robertson) was from a old Scottish family of ministers/ theologians.[1]
