What time frame are you looking at? Scott Sharp

Hi! I recently found that my ancestor, Scott SHARP was from Virginia. (He then apparently wandered around Arkansas, Missouri, and Iowa.) He married Sarah Ann LINN. Has any one heard of Scott? I have plenty of info on his descendants I'd be happy to share. Thanks, JoAnn

I'm in search of Wanda Sharp who is a decendent of Leonard Hopkins son of Joseph Hopkins and Elizabeth Brock from Kentucky. I have some research information to share with her. The last email address I have for her is no longer valid. Believe Wanda Sharp lives in the Kentucky area and has changed email providers. Any information would be appreciated. Thanks Bob

NICE! But not knowing my geology like I should, my worse subject, I have to ask. Is some of the census in Ireland or is it all North Carolina? I noticed some say North and South District, what is that close to? Plus what is NdRcd? God Bless Pam

Here are a couple of sites that have helped me in my research of my Michigan ancestors, http://www.mdch.state.mi.us/pha/osr/gendisx/search2.htm http://www.livgenmi.com/ The first is for Michigan deaths between 1867 and 1897. The second is for Livingston County, MI. This site is great.
