Hi Linda Thanks for your reply. Yes, we need to go further back then we might find a connection; Fay also. Kind regards Jan NSW Australia From: vesey@dccnet.com To: oziepoms@live.com.au CC: eng-lincsgen@rootsweb.com Subject: RE: [LIN] Admin. note: Until May comes Date: Mon, 25 Apr 2016 16:49:46 -0700 Hi JanYes, I believe we were in touch some years ago re SHARP/Es. The West Keal bunch should be the ones that my Thomas came from as Fay Fraser is descended from these. She and I are connected through the Pinchbeck Plowrights so it could follow that there was a family relationship going on. But it’s not showing up. Or we’re not back enough generations to catch it. I think the later.

I haven't done research lately and not pre-registration but have some information from the old IGI: Marriage of Robert Sharp to Rebecca Brunt Spouse: Robert SHARP (AFN: CV3Z-VX) Marriage: 1830 West Keal Parish, Eng. And from my third cousin whom I met on the list: The address was just 'Village' so that wasn't much help. The entry was as follows:- Robert SHARP Head married age 47 Gardener Born West Ashby c 1814Rebecca " Wife m 44 Born Boston c 1817Whattam " Son u 16 Born West KealMary Ann " Daur u 14 Scholar "Robert " Son u 10 " "William " Son u 8 " "Henry " Son u 6 " " bn 1844 – my (Jan's) ggrandfatherJohn " Son u 4 " " >From Parish Records:WEST KEAL BAPTISMS APR 1831 – OCT 1859 1831 Apr 23 - Charles s.o.

Robert/Rebecca SHARP of West Keal, gardener (The peculiar text of part of the above is what happened when I copied it over and I don't know how to alter font in this email program.) I have heaps more later stuff. There could be a connection of siblings earlier with the big families they all had then. Hope I've been of help and that we connect.
