Hi Diane; My Grandmother was Sarah Mae Sharp Boulanger, born May 1,1891 in Niotaze KS
married to Benjamin Harrison Boulanger born Aug. 13, 1889 in Indian Territory (OK) and she
was the daughter of Johile Sharp, son of Obed Sharp and Catherine Miller Sharp. The
original name for Sharp was Scharb, but Grandpa Obed I guess changed it when he came to
America from Germany or Holland. Do you have the information on this. My Grandma did have
her Mothers Bible which had German written in it, but I have no idea where it is now. I
tried to find Muterspaugh, but didn't get anything on that spelling. My Grandma lived
in Elgin,KS and died in Sedan,KS at Pleasant Valley Nursing Home on May 24,1984. She was
one of twelve children. Two of her brothers John and Pete moved to Oregon in the
1930's where they both have decendents. I don't hear from them. Aunt Gert who was
married to my Grandpa Boulanger's brother Willie, William Joseph Boulanger have two
daughters living. Virginia Marie B. !
Breckenridge lives in Washington and Sylven lives in Kansas. Uncle Bill has several kids
living in Owasso,OK and recently one of his sons passed away, Donald Sharp. Aunt Elizabeth
S. Kirchner had five children and the last oneBig Boy Joe died in 1999. They lived in
northern Oklahoma. All of my Grandparents children are gone as well. They were Thursie

Boulanger b. 0ct. 31,1926 d. Oct30,1984, my Grandpa Benjamin Harrison Boulanger was born
Aug.13,1889 and died Dec.5,1961. I hope to hear something from any of you out there. I
have stuff on Sarah Sharp Pennel but I have never seen anything until now on David Sharp.
I was wondering are we related to the country singer Kevin Sharp? I hope so, he is such an
inspiration !
to mankind. Kevin if you're out there and check out this web somehow,
Best Wishes to you and hope I can see you sometime. I relocated out here from Oklahoma
where I had lived most of my life after leaving Kansas when I was nine years old. My
e-mail address is actually wbroome3347(a)charter.net if anyone wants to try to contact me
here in South Carolina. If any of you are in the Gree''lle/Sprtbg area look me up.
Where do the Millers go after Grandma Sharp?
