John, I wondered if you knew any more about the John Sharp who was Hulda's father. My family is from VA. Was their ancestry German or English/Scottish? Interestingly, I have ancestors Nancy Sharp marrying John W. Marshall, b. 1806, Mary and Martha Sharp marrying James Marshall, (these three are sisters)b. 1804 and another ancestor, Hanna McKinney, marrying Joseph Marshall, b. 1792.
