Judy Bates,
My grandparents were James Catlett and Samantha Sherrard of Frederick County, Va. Both
born latter 1800's. I do know these two families had earlier connections as evident in
the 1850 Morgan Co. Census. My great, great uncle James Catlett, s/o John Catlett and
Ursula Bailey, married into the Unger family. A Sherrard aunt of my grandmother married
John Wesley Unger, I believe family to James Catlett's Unger bride. Living in the John
Wesley Unger and Sarah Ann Sherrard home in 1850 is a Hulilo Sherrard, 21h, who I have not
identified tho would appear is a relative of Sarah Ann. My point to you is that I also
find a Jane Sherrard, 24 in the 1850 Morgan County Census living in the John Butt home. Do
not know who she is or this family. The only other possible connection I've come
across is info from USGenweb that states a Virginia Butt b abt 1826 Botetourt Cty married
on Sept 9, 1845 to a John S. Huff. My great grandmother Sarah Belle Sherrard went by the
last name of Huff at some!
point before marrying Robert Sherrard. Also known by Bennett prior to this marriage. And
Bailey Catlett married an Elizabeth Huff according to the Stubbs book.
I hope this message don't mass produce also. Again, I'm sorry for the
inconvenience.
