I am descended from Moses 6 generations back through my father's grandparents. They were Malinda and James Alexander Sharp. Cecil Sharp (grandma's brother) did a geneology of the family, but he left out a lot of details. I'm attempting to get James and Moses Sharp entered as DAR ancestors and would love to have the information in Moses' Bible. Please contact me.

I'm also a 6th generation descendent of Moses Sharp. I'm attempting to join DAR with him as my 4th ancestor who served. My father's mother was a Sharp by marriage to James Alexander Sharp. I'd love to have a copy of the births from Moses' Bible. That would be a GREAT help in getting the line finalized. My mother remembers going to her cousin "Jimbo" Sharp's azalia parties in DC. He was an attorney to many of the congressional members in his time. I think I even went once when I was around 8 years old.
