    3. Lisa, Right at the moment, I don't think there is a connection. My line: Cornelius Sharp born in NY died in Franklin Co., OH Cornelius Sharp born in NY 1806 died in Douglas Co., IL Married in Pickaway Co., OH Francis Sharp born in Pickaway Co., OH died in Neosho Co. Married in Douglas Co., IL Francis Sharp settled in the Thayer/Galesburg area. He is buried in the Thayer Cemetery. A brother is located also there. I believe some sisters also joined him - Hudson, Bolinger, Neely. My grandfather owned either K&K Electric or Knapp Electric up to 1939 when he died. My great grandfather, Will Knapp, was a foreman with the Oil Refinery and then owned a gas station into the 1940's. And no other Knapp's in Neosho Co. Geoffrey "Lisa L.
