Surname: TANNER, SHARP
-------------------------

Manean SHARP m. Lucinda TANNER dau of John and Nancy MCINTOSH TANNER. m.
January 1830. Manean was a tanner by trade. Lucinda was from Daviss County,
KY. Manean and the SHARP family from Washington County, PA. On the 1830
Daviss County, KY census we find this family. They had three children:
1.John Tanner SHARP Died about one year old by falling in a tanning vat.
b, 1828
2.William Wolverton SHARP b. 1830. (Named from the maiden name of his grandmother
Mary WOLVERTON SHARP, wife of Isaac SHARP)
3.Mary SHARP. b. 1832

Manean died at 30 years of age. b. 1805 died 1835 I do not know from what.
Lucinda was a very young widow. b. 1808. I have been able to find a Bible
record of the above and the dates of birth, marriage and death of this
little family.
Did Lucinda remarry, who and where? What is really a mystery is what happened
to William Wolverton SHARP and Mary SHARP.
Any hints and so on would be appreciated.
