Sandys Row Synagogue
Sandy's Row Synagogue is a historic ''Grade II'' listed synagogue and former Christian church in the East End of London. After the Great Synagogue of London, the city's first Ashkenazi congregation, was destroyed by German bombing in the London Blitz on May 10, 1941, Sandys Row became the oldest surviving Ashkenazi synagogue in London. Architecture The congregation hired architect Nathan S. Joseph to remodel the former church. The building is rectangular and measures . A women's gallery runs along the north, west, and south walls. The difficulty was that the entrance was on the south east corner of the building. Jews traditionally pray in the direction of Jerusalem, which, in London, in towards the southeast.

Baron Sandys
Baron Sandys () is a title that has been created three times, once in the Peerage of England, once in the Peerage of Great Britain and once in the Peerage of the United Kingdom. The first creation, as Baron Sandys, ''of The Vyne'', in Hampshire, was in the Peerage of England in 1523 for William Sandys, the favourite of King Henry VIII. It passed through several generations of his descendants until it fell into abeyance circa 1683 at the death of the eighth Baron, in which state it has remained since. The second creation, as Baron Sandys, ''of Ombersley in the County of Worcester'', was in the Peerage of Great Britain in 1743 for Samuel Sandys, the former Chancellor of the Exchequer.

The family estates were inherited by Edwin's niece Mary Hill, Marchioness of Downshire, widow of Arthur Hill, 2nd Marquess of Downshire.

Sandys Parish, Bermuda
Sandys Parish ( "sands") is one of the nine parishes of Bermuda. It is named for English aristocrat Sir Edwin Sandys (1561–1629), and hence there is no apostrophe in the name.
