Family notes
Robert Sharp's sister, Elizabeth Sharp, first married Samuel Craft, Jr. and second to James Shed. Samuel Craft, Jr. also died on the expedition to Canada. Elizabeth Sharp and Samuel Craft, Jr. are direct ancestors of my father, George Otis Parker, Jr. (1943-1982). Their daughter Mary Craft married Ebenezer Weld. Rebeckah Weld was their daughter. Rebeckah married Joseph Brewer, a son of Nathaniel Brewer III and Elizabeth Mayo, of Roxbury, Suffolk County, Massachusetts.

Sarah's third husband Solomon Phipps is also a sibling to an ancestor of my father. Solomon Phipps was a brother of Abial (or Abiel) Phipps who married Captain Caleb Gardner, son of Thomas Gardner III and Mary Bowles. Johanna Gardner was their daughter. Johanna married Lt. Thomas Aspinwall of Brookline, Massachusetts.
