Double checked and one newspaper record said he was a nephew of Sir Cuthbert Sharp, and in another he was descended from a family of shipowners?? Struggling to make sense of it!🤯🤦🏼♀️

Does anyone think the two Cuthberts are related? Want to be able to see a connection.

The only thing is; Elizabeth was Cuthbert Sharp (not famous one) 2nd wife. His first wife was; Ann Brass, but I can’t find any children from that marriage?🤔

« on: Monday 12 December 22 23:55 GMT (UK) »If Mary Sharp married John Harrison in June qtr 1938 you need to buy a copy of the marriage cert to determine her fathers occupation to link her to the 1841 entry
The fact that her son’s obit only mentioned he was related to the Sir Cuthbert suggests he may have been a second cousin or similar. If he was a nephew or grandson I would have expected it to be more precise
It’s possible the 2 Cuthberts were cousins
Just looked at the Newspaper record, John Sharp Harrison was actually the nephew of Sir Cuthbert Sharp, aswell as being the grandson of the other Cuthbert Sharp. I’m just confused, they only had two children. John didn’t have any children?🤔
