Virgil Sherrod
Posted by Kimberly Hunt to the Sherrod Family Genealogy Forum: I have a Virgil Sherrod married to a Minnie. I know they had a daughter Geneva b May 5, 1896 in Ken. I do not know if this is a connection or not. I have been having great difficulty in finding anyone in this line.

John Sherrod
I have decided to connect John with Noah as his father because 1) his son is named Noah & 2) there are no other Sherrods in the county and people tended to stay with relatives & 3) the ages are in the ball park.

Mary Sherrod
Martha Cowey Palanovich as posted to the Sherrod Family Genealogy Forum:
I'm searching for info on my gr-gr-grandmother Mary Sherrod b. abt 1805 (in NC?), d. abt 1850 and will proved in Martin County, NC. Married to Charles Wm. Cowey b. 1777 & d. 1841 - both in Martin County, NC. Charles Wm. was married before, but Mary Sherrod's children - from family Bible - are: Joseph b. 7/9/1830; Wm Wilson b. 12/27/1831; Robert Turner b. 8/15/1833; Charles Wm b. 9/18/1836; Needham Christopher 12/20/1837; James Henry b. 1/9/1840; Susan Temperance b. abt 1841.
Wm. Wilson & James Henry are not named in Mary's will, so assume they had died. Susan Temperance was left in the care of Mary's sister Mrs. Needham Hyman - perhaps named Elizabeth? (It turns out that Temperance Sherrod married Needham Hyman in Martin Co, NC in 1817 and Mary's daughter's name is Susan Temperance. Too much coincedence, I think. Temperance must ne Mary's sister.)
Who are Mary's parents? Son Charles Wm is my gr-grandfather - he had a half-brother by the same name who died in 1836, so when he was born that year he was named C.W. for him. (Before the family Bible info, there was some confusion because there was another Charles Wm. b. that year. He was the son of the dead C.W, born 7 months after his father died - named in his grandfather's will in 1841.)
OBSERVATIONS: In Phil Sherrod's book about the Sherrods, there is a Charles W. Sherrod, b. 11/23/1841 to John Llewellyn Sherrod & Lucinda Weathersbee. Since the birthdate is only a few days after the death of Mary's husband Charles Wm., assumption is that he was named for him. Also, John Llewellyn was b. 1804 & Mary was b. abt 1805, judging from her will. Were they siblings, children of Salathiel Sherrod? Or were they cousins?? HELP!
M. C. Sherrod
Almost certainly related to William N. Sherrod who was on the farm next door.
