I have some Sherwoods in my family..from VA/WV. I have a Joseph Sherwood married a Margaret Robinette in MD 1862, moved to WV..had 3 daughters, Alice Sherwood(my ggrandmother) Rhoda, and Eva..he died between 1862 and 1880. 1880 Morgan Cty, WV census show Margaret living with her mother and brother with the daughters, she is listed as widow. Does any of this help or do you have any additional info that we can share.
