A. M. and Sarah Sheriff (Sherriff)
I am curious about a Sheriff family who appear on the 1850 Blount County, Alabama, census:A.M. Sherriff (age 35, b. SC) and wife, Sarah (age 27, b. SC), along with Elizabeth (age 11 b. TN) and Rebecca age 9 b. GA).I know of no family connection, but these people were near neighbors of my g-g-grandfather Nelson's family in Blountsville, Alabama.My g-g-grandfather's youngest brother was born ca 1842 and his given name was Sheriff.I would like to know if there was a connection between the families.
