I'm searching for information concerning Elizabeth Kenan who married James Price circa 1780 in either the Carolinas, or in Georgia. She was the mother of Mary and Lewis Price, possibly others. Thank you.

Elizabeth - I think you and I and few of my cousins need to talk ASAP. I will email you personally also, but for the benefit of posting publically to help all of us poor adicted fools, I will answer here. My great grandfather was James Price Sharp. He was married to Maria Theresa Keenan. She died at 28 we suspect in childbirth delivering a female baby named Mae. James Price Sharp later married Anna Hahn Finnegan and they had three or four children, one of whom was my grandfather, Thomas Leroy Sharp. I have been piecing together the Sharp's, Hahn's, Raffo's from so little resources. I have picture's of the Elizabeth Keenan's tombstone or memorial marker more likely. I have pictures of Patrick Keenan's graves and 2 other Yankee soilders from New York. I have James Price Sharp, Mari Theresa and Anna Hahn stones has well ahs most of their children. They are buried in Mount Calvary Cemetery in Richmond, Virginia.
