Jenny, I have a Biography sketch of Arzy F. Sharp from Wilson Co., KS Arzy is a son of Christopher Sharp and Mary Oldham. I happened on this since my Sharps moved to Neosho Co., KS in the early 1860's. And Wilson and Neosho Counties were in one book. By the way, my Francis Sharp and Arzy Sharp (as far as I know) are 2nd cousins, none removed. Cornelius Sharp (brother of Garrett) Cornelius Sharp + Sarah Rush (born in 1806 in NY) Francis Sharp + Mary Chaney I'll send you the word doc to you. Cousin, Geoffrey Knapp
Geoffrey, Our Sharp's moved from Casey County KY to IN/IL to Neosho County KS. Do you have any Sharps in your file that married Romine, Yockey, Wise, or Hedden? If so email me! I would like to exchange information. My husband's mother was a Sharp (Betty Jane Sharp Leatherman) her father was Archie C. Sharp who was married to Pearl Hedden he use to work for the RR in Chanute. The old train in the Chanute Park is one that he use to drive. Also I see your last name is Knapp are you related to the man who owns or owned Knapp's Food Store? Lisa "Geoffrey W. Knapp" wrote: > Jenny, > > I have a Biography sketch of Arzy F.
