There is a Sherman book available which goes back to Philip Sherman. It has many generations in it. My mother is in it. It is in the DAR in Washington. It should also be at the Rhode Island Historical Society."Some of the Descendants of Philip Sherman The First Secretary of Rhode Island" by Roy V. Sherman. There is another book which I cannot locate the author right now. Elizabeth in NJ ************** Planning your summer road trip? Check out AOL Travel Guides.
