Sharpe, born about 1870. Francis Sharpe, according to Janice Gartman Lee, was the illegitimate son of (unknown male) Spires and (unknown female) Sharpe. Back then the child took the mother's last name in these cases. Francis first married Christena Corley, born about 1807, and had 13 children (according to his Will). He then married Cedecia. After he died, Cedecia supposedly married John Wesley Wise, born about 1839, from Swansea, and had 2 children, John Asmond Wise (1876-1954), and Bailey Wise, born about 1879. I did not check the 1880 census, was a Bailey Wise mentioned, I don' t know when John Wesley Wise died, maybe he died before the 1880 census. Dennis Williams
