Hi,
My ggg grandfather was John Sharland, born approx 1839 married Maria Biggs in England.His youngest son, Henry William was born in 1875 - the family lived at 700 Government Row in Enfield, England and moved to NY with his family about 1905 From what I have been told, the children's birth mother was Mary Christine Forbes.Apparently she died in England.I have not been able to find John's parents although I have been told someone in the family believes his name was Joseph.
Mary Christine Forbes and Maria Biggs have been amost impossible to locate - any info you would like (if this is part of your branch at all) I would be happy to give to you.
Good luck and happy hunting
