Is ELISHA WEBB SHARP the same Elisha A. Sharp listed on the 1850 census as a child of John J. Sharp? I'm assuming that the John Sharp, age 85, on the 1850 census is the father of John J. Sharp, age 50. Do you agree? I'm also assuming they had only been in MS for about six years as the youngest child, Elisha A, was born in AL. So, did Mary Sharp's family follow her and Elisha to MS or did they all come together?
