Frankie: My SHARP line was in both Scott and Copiah Counties, MS prior to settling in TX. I haven't heard of Elisha SHARP, but have heard of Eli B. SHARP, whom my 3rd great-grandfather, George Turner SHARP (1829-1905), lived with prior to establishing his own household. Unfortunately, this is as far back as I have information. Please let me know if you think that there might be a link... Thanks!

I don't think so, but the Sharp's seem to be a slippery bunch! The only line I know is: Henry Winborne came to Hertford Co. from Nansemond Co. VA in 1742 and married Sarah Hare. Three of their children were William, Thomas and Sarah. Sarah married Starkey Sharp I and their children were: Sarah, Elizabeth and Jacob. Jacob married Nancy Hunter - and their son was Elisha Hunter Sharp ----- Original Message ----- From: Kimberly Bourke <4bourkes@home.com> To: <SHARP-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Saturday, January 19, 2002 3:56 PM Subject: Re: [SHARP-L] Elisha Hunter Sharp > Frankie: > > My SHARP line was in both Scott and Copiah Counties, MS prior to settling in > TX.
