It is the connection to Sharpham House (which has never, until now, been connected to any person named SHARPHAM) that got me looking at this again.
The possible origin of the name was of interest as mentioned on the Sharpham House web site. All research I have seen seems to hit a blockage at Peter SHARPHAM (1655). I haven't been able to connect this family back to Thomas de SCHARPEHAM (pre 1260).
The list of SHARPHAMs from Cornwall can be counted on 1 hand so I have never really followed the surname there. Are there any particular Cornwall records you recommend I look at?
