About Alice Sharp

From Betty Stokes (Davis):

Alice Sharp, born about 1704. Daughter of Stephen Sharp and Elizabeth Winston.

Married first John James.
Had daughters Mary James born about 1724 and Elizabeth Winston James. Both born in Spotsylvania Co., VA. Elizabeth Winston James born 1726 married James Kennerly.

John James, St. George's Parish, d. Jan 23, 1725, p. Mar. 1, 1725-6. Wit. John Grayson, Stephen Sharp, John Bartaille. Ex. wife Alice James, Charles Taliaferro, Junr. Leg. wife Alice and daughter, Mary, and the child my wife now goes with. (page 24) Will Book A. 1722-1749.

Alice married second Ambrose Grayson born abt 1704, Lancaster Co., VA. died 6 Sep 1742, St. George's Parish, Spotsylvania Co., VA. They had 9 children. I'm from the oldest son, John Grayson born abt 1727 Spotsylvania Co., VA, died abt 1802, Montgomery Co., VA. I have John Grayson as a proven DAR ancestor. Ambrose was the son of John Grayson and Susanna (might be White). I have John Grayson as a proven Colonial Dames XVII Century ancestor.

Alice's 3rd husband was James Stephens.

Source: Book - Cynthia E. Snider. Bateman, Grayson, Boyette, Carter & Cole Families. I have a lot of information on the Grayson family. Not much on Alice's ancestors.
