General Notes: Husband - Samuel Wilson Sharpe

---

He was educated at a Latin school at Newville, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, and in early manhood engaged in the grain and forwarding business. As was customary at that time, he owned his own warehouse and cars in which he shipped his produce. He was very successful in business, but retired in 1855 because of ill health. He was noted for his admiration of fine stock, and his stables were filled with horses and cattle of high breeding and pure blood.
