My wife and I recently visited Shoreham and Cornwall looking for the tombstone for Anna (Woodward/Woodard) Sherwood. I found her daughter, Delight Halliday in the "West Cornwall" cemetery on Highway 74 (much to my surprise). But there was no evidence of Anna there. We also looked in Evergreen Cemetery unsuccessfully. Are there any resources that might help me to find information on Anna Woodward? She is supposed to have died in 1808 in Cornwall. Her son, Alanson Sherwood, married Dolly Blair Jones of Shoreham about 1816 or so and their first son was born in Shoreham in 1818. Then Alanson and Dolly moved to Somerset, NY, in time to be included in the 1820 census in Somerset. Please respond to Glenn A. Sherwood, Jr.
