Hi, Lorilei, my family is from northern NY, Lewis and Jefferson County, so far. Don't know where they came from. I start with Albert and his wife Rhoda Wheeler Sharp. They had 2 dtrs. that I know of, Carrie and Helen/Nellie Sharp. One married a Flick and one married a Purcell. The dtrs. were born 1861 and 1864. I would be interested in knowing some of your info as I have a Sharp researcher who sends me pages of Sharps and maybe I can find yours. Connie
