Information from Find A Graver Mark
Birth year disputed from marker inscription:
1850 census (done in November of 1850) lists him as 11. It's of course possible that 1840 is correct, but 1839 would match the census. (Incidentally, a Sharp descendant's family Bible refers to him as Jack, has no birth date, and says that he "died in war.")
A J. Sharp, Enlisted on 5/1/1862 as a Private. On 5/1/1862 he mustered into "I" Co. MS 43rd Infantry. Died at Home July 10, 1863.
