I do have a paragraph that may have come from the Biographical Sketches. It states -"JAMES V. SHARP, farmer, Sec. 24: P.O. Eagle, born in Halcott.....Mr. S., is a Democrat." If this is the same I thank you for your kind offer and if it is different I would love to see it. It would be interesting to know what motivated part of the family to head west.
