THE SHARON FAMILY
This History of the Sharon Family in America begins
with the earliest of these Scotch-Irish immigrants who arrived in Philadelphia
in the 1720s and continues up to the present day. The History basically follows
my direct lineage, but also contains the known information on all the early
branches of this family.
The Sharon family came to this country in the early
1720s and settled in eastern Pennsylvania. In the next few generations, the
family spread west into the wilds of central Pennsylvania. After the
Revolution, branches spread out into Kentucky and Ohio. My line went to
Illinois, and by 1900 there were Sharons from coast to coast.
The Sharon family was a very typical early American
pioneering family. It has been enjoyable and interesting to track down their
history. I hope the reader finds it equally so.
