  • Notes 
    • In the 1850 Federal Census, H. W. Sharpe and family are living at District 81, Thomas Co., GA: H. W. 50, Jane 45, William 17, Ellen 14, James 12, Jane 9, & Betsey Thomas 6.

      In the 1870 Federal Census, Hamilton & Jane Sharp are ages 63 & 62, living at Valdosta, Lowndes Co., GA. Also in town are several other Sharp families, most likely their children and grandchildren. Their three Remington grandsons are living with the William Sharp family next door.

      In 1880, H. W. & Jane Sharpe are ages 73 & 71, living at Quitman, Brooks Co., GA. In their home are three boarders and four servants.

      The information on Hamilton's parents was found at Rootsweb's Worldconnect, the family tree of Pamela D. Hudson. Another database has different dates for Elizabeth Wynn. This needs more research to confirm the names and dates.

      Information on Hamilton's & Jane's children was obtained from three sources: census data, Rootsweb's Worldconnect, and Benny's Genealogy Page.
