In reply to Demastus@aol.com I don't know if my Sharps are connected to the ones you posted. I can trace mine back to John Sharp (b 1753 in PA. He was among those to first settle in Lewis County on Big Swan Creek about 1806. Wife unknown Children: Nathaniel Sharp William "Willis" Sharp (b abot 1782) Nehemiah Sharp John Sharp Edward Sharp Joshua Sharp James Sharp Margaret Sharp Samuel Sharp William "Willis" Sharp was my gggg grandfather. He married Eleanor Mayfield. Their son William Anderson Sharp was my ggg grandfather. I did notice the name of Anderson Sharp on your list. Perhaps this was a family name and we are somehow connected? Diana Sharp Clark Atascadero, CA
