That's him. Henry must have been the one nicknamed "Dock". Didn't know about Sarah. I guess I need to concentrate more on Calhoun County. Other Sharp relatives lived in Calhoun County. They lived in the part of Calhoun county that was ceded to Calhoun County when it was formed in 1852. I lost my sources in a computer crash about 7 years ago. I don't know where I got the information from the 1850 census. I think someone sent it to me. They only had an approximate birthdate for "Dock" of after 1870.
