Nearly twenty-five years ago, David Guy Sharp embarked on an epic adventure. His quest would involve thousands of hours combing through libraries, courthouses and cemeteries. He would invest an incredible amount of time and effort in making phone calls and visiting family members in search of hidden gems that had been all but lost to future generations. The book you are holding in your hand is the treasure trove of Mr. Sharp's labor. Within these pages he has compiled years of painstaking research on the Sharp family throughout the generations. A combination of rare photos, detailed genealogy and interesting trivia, Sharp Family: Remembering Those Who Have Gone Before Us is a must read for any history lover-especially those related to the Sharp family.

A written history devoted almost exclusively to Clarke County Alabama and its people. Quoting from books published before this (1923) and recording his own personal accounts, the author, a resident of Clarke County since 1875, gives his personal observation of Clarke County places and events.In the introduction, the author states, " This book will doubtless be read with much interest by the present generation living in Clarke, as well as by the generations to follow. If it should be preserved and handed down through the coming years, it may, in the far distant future, fall under the eye of some descendent of some Clarke countian and enable him or her to look back through the avenue of time and get a mental picture of Clarke County in the nineteenth and twentieh centuries."
