Sharp, Issac

Other Events and Attributes:

• Reference Number: SHAR.I007

Notes:

Issaac was not just a settler but an explorer, being one of the first white men to enter this area. He settled with the Piankashaw along what is now 7 mile river Preble Conty Ohio. There were no white or black women in the area for many years.


In 1702 major war broke out between the French and the English in Penn. It is quite fesible that Issac was a pacifist and choose to move away from " civilized man". He sailed down the Ohio River by raft or canoe reaching the last English settlement, an all male trading post.
