Matthew Shearer is as far back as any of us can go until it can be determined if any parish registers still exist in Armagh from around his time. If so we may---I repeat MAY be able to find more IF he is listed. But only the gentry were recorded faithfully in those during that time. If our Shearer's were like their descendants...it's doubtful.

Sarah Love)s/o William Sherer & Martha Minter. I have been doing genealogy for 30 years. Would love to be able to go back farther into Ireland branch of family.

Sheldon,
This is WAY after your post - but I've been working on the Sherer family (my greatgrandfather was Samual's brother) and I have a lot of information. I'm somewhat lacking on Sam's side and I'd love to talk. John Scherer jhscherer@comcast.net (732) 530-3969

Re: Sherer family in Alabama

bootsgrandma — 2009-02-16 23:12:49Z

I have been researching this family for years and would love to compare notes.

My husband is descended from Elizabeth Ann Kirkpatrick b.1821 who married Elisha Sherer. Elizabeth is the daughter of Joseph H. Kirkpatrick whose parents were John Kirkpatrick and Elizabeth Craig.

I would love to compare notes on this line and further my Craig research also. All I know about Elizabeth Craig is that her father may have been named George and she was said to have been born in Chester District, SC in or about 1750.

Any help from there would be great and I will gladly help you with the Sherer side. Contact me directly at: www.bootsgrandma@yahoo.com" target="_blank">www.bootsgrandma@yahoo.com

Hi!

Boy did you step on a hornet's nest!!!

I have been researching this family for years and would love to compare notes.

My husband is descended from Elizabeth Ann b.1821 who married Elisha Sherer.

I recommend the following items of research also:

AMERICAN KIRKPATRICK FAMILY 1754-1972 by D.M. Kirkpatrick 2817 N. Clarence, Wichita, KS 67204 (Manuscript found in the Heritage Room of the Huntsville Public Library, Huntsville, AL. A Xerox copy is in my possession.)

CAROLINA SHEARER-SHERERS AND OTHERS compiled by Iva LaRou Sherer c.1978. (Copy found at the Jasper-Walker County-Public Library, Jasper, AL.)

Both are excellent sources of data and are quite accurate in their data.

Two of the Kirkpatrick-Sherer daughters are buried in New Prospect Cemetery in Jasper (Elizabeth & Harriet). The other two (Jennet Rosannah & Jane) are buried in Old City Cemetery in downtown Jasper. The other two Kirkpatrick daughters (Mary & Margaret) I do not have record of their burial places.

Their parents Joseph & Elizabeth Rainey Kirkpatrick are buried in Bullock Creek Presbyterian Cem, Near York, SC.

I have more. Write soon. My e-mail address is: www.bootsgrandma@yahoo.com" target="_blank">www.bootsgrandma@yahoo.com

"Hello Fellow Family researcher and possible Cousin!"

Am hopeful that you receive this and favor me with a reply. Would very much like to compare our findings on the family of John W. SHERER and his wife, Rebecca GALLAGHER. Am hopeful that you might have information on their daughter, Fannie J., b 1884, White Co., AR, who alledgedly married J. A. DONNELL. Try as I have, have not had any luck whatsoever in being able to verify this marriage to date.

Obit: Charles Christopher Sherer (1847-1923)

pbbut — 2008-04-05 21:39:57Z

Charles Christopher Sherer was born near Millville, Butler County, Ohio.
In his early manhood he enlisted in Company G, 35th 6 V. I. (Company G, 35th Ohio Infantry). Served as a soldier three years in the civil war, was honorably discharged and mustered out with his company at Chattanooga, Tennessee.
The spirit of adventure led him to the Indian country and he spent many years among the Indians and working for the government at Ft. Sill and Anadarko. He helped locate the county seats of the counties in the Cheyenne and Arapaho country.
At the time of settlement of Garfield county he made the race and settled in Enid, September 16th, 1893. Later in 1901 he came to Grady county, filed on a homestead 5 miles southwest of Minco, where he and his family lived until January 1922 when they moved to Minco.
In his younger days he was a member of the Presbyterian church. A few days before he died he said he had made peace with God and was not afraid to die. He quietly passed over the river of death at 11:15 A.M. September 24, 1923.
He was married to Maggie May Howenstine of Enid on May 23, 1896 at Pond Creek, Okla.
He leaves his widow and children, Mrs. Pearl Law and Joe A. Sherer both of Minco and one granddaughter, Juanita Mae Law, also one sister of Waynesfield, Ohio.
The funeral services were held at the Baptist church in this city Tuesday morning at 10 o'clock. Rev. Barker preached the funeral sermon. Burial was made in Evergreen Cemetery.

I WOULD like to get information on the children of Eleanor and Franklin Sherer. I only have info on their third child, Macre Ann, and would appreciate getting any information you might be able to share with me.

I WILL NOT post any info online, since I am doing this for myself, and my immediate family.

You can email me at rootsdigr@yahoo.com, rather than posting here.

Thanks for the reply!

Sherrah/Sherer marriages of Coosa Co., AL

2006-09-23 17:54:49Z

I am researching the Gaylor family of Coosa/Elmore Co., AL

If anyone can supply any info on the following marriages, please e-mail me at: NKCorum@aol.com

George W. Gaylor married 23 Dec 1858 Coosa Co, AL, Permelia Jane Sherrah. Both George and Jane Gaylor appear in the 1860 Coosa Co., AL., census. A Jane Galer with one child named Kate appear in the 1870 Elmore Co., AL census, living next to James and Burrel Shearer. I can not locate this family after the 1870 census. Would love to know what happened to this Gaylor child.

Mary Ann Gaylor married 22 NOV 1866 Coosa Co., AL., William Sherer. This marriage record is very hard to read, but I believe it to be Sherer. I can't locate this family after the marriage.

Thanks

I appreciate your knowledge however, I do know how, when, and why they made the Virginia/New York connection. The information is correct. What I need is verification on the actual marriages. William and Mary Journal has some of the information but you are not allowed to copy without permission of the contributor and there is no way to contact the contributor. Ancestry dot com also has some of the info. but its not a image of the documents. I need the images. Also I have some old pictures of these indivudals if anyone is related I would be happy to send copies via e-mail.

Walter Sherer

2006-02-23 14:52:41Z

I need some assistance in completing a genealogy project for my high school English class. My great-great-grandfather Walter Sherer was born esle where but moved to York, South Carolina around 1920. I am not sure of the years. Where and for what length of time he lived in those places and others is not known. He was married or going with at the time a woman name Osie May. I don't know if I spelled it right or not. This is a brick wall that I must break through before I can continue with that line of may family. I would appreciate any help that anyone can give me.

Richard Sherer-Shearer

DWallace1946 — 2006-07-10 13:33:09Z

looking for information on a Richard Sherer who had been married to a Frances Wallace, she was born SC 1926, applied for her Soc Sec in Indiana, died in Georgia 1996. Frances Sherer was living in Morristown, TN in 1959. I'm assuming that because she is listed in her step-father's obituary as Mrs. Frances Sherer that Richard had died by then or that Richard and Frances had divorced.
Does anyone have an idea who Richard Sherer might have been?
