We are a very, very large family, anyone from Sharon or our surrounding communities know or have heard of our family name. My Grandfather's name was Elmer Ellsworth Porterfield Sr. He was born in the early 30's and died in 1990. I was surprised to learn that the surname is popular in Scotland and other countries.I would love to hear any info. that you may have. Thanks, Michelle
