Isaac Sharp1
b. 13 April 1750, d. 12 February 1831
| Birth* | 13 April 1750 | Isaac Sharp was born on 13 April 1750 in South Carolina.3,2,1 |
| (Son) Relocation | | After his birth, Isaac's parents moved their family to Virginia.3 |
| Occupation* | 1776 | Isaac received a letter from his mother in 1776 which indicated that Isaac was then teaching school. The letter was addressed to him in care of Morgan Morgan, a prominent lay member of the Episcopal Church who resided at Bibker Hill, Berkeley County, Virginia.2,3 |
| Research Notes* | | The 1776 letter to Isaac from his mother is of special interest to us. The Wolverton source stated that his mother had signed her name to the letter as Mrs. Mary Wilson, indicating that her husband, Isaac's father was deceased and that she had married again. However, the same source, on the same subject, referred to Isaac's mother as Mary (Wolverton) Sharp, who was actually his wife. The Washington County source included a transcription of Isaac's mother's 1776 letter to him. The transcription, however, did not include a reference to how she signed her name. Of interest, though, is the fact that she wrote in her letter, "We are talking of going to South Carolina again next spring. John's son John, who lives there was here, but I hardly think we will go." Her words have made us think that her second husband may have been a John Wilson, who had a son, John, who lived in South Carolina in 1776.2,3 |
| Marriage* | 1777 | He married Mary Wolverton, daughter of John Wolverton and Abigail Darby, in 1777 in that part of Virginia that became West Virginia.1,2 |
| Residence* | | Isaac and Mary (Wolverton) Sharp settled on McNarlin's Run, about three miles northwest of Waynesburg, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, which eventually became Greene County.3 |
| Occupation* | | Brothers-in-law Isaac Sharp and Timothy Ross were surveyors in partnership, and both were patentees of land near Waynesburg, Washington County.4 |
| (Husband) Death | 26 August 1822 | Isaac became a widower when Mary (Wolverton) Sharp died on 26 August 1822.3,5 |
| Death* | 12 February 1831 | He died on 12 February 1831 at Waynesburg at age 806,7 |
| Burial* | | and was buried by the side of his wife in the Waynesburg Old Cemetery.3 |
