Jan, I am away from home right now but will check it out when I get home the first part of the week. I am sure that there is a connection. I am a direct descendant of Elizabeth Hatmaker and Francis Bullock, Also a direct descendant of the Sharp's. I am sure that there are many connections. Sharps and Hatmakers married into my Lindsay and Reed lines many times. Also into my Cooper and Wilson and Webb lines. I will get back to you soon. Who were Bessie's parents?
