  Father	Abel SHERMAN,   d. 15 Aug 1794, Campus Martius, Marietta, Washington, Ohio, USA
  Notes	It's impossible for this Abel to be the father of Able (1755-1822) but I am keeping him here because I think he may be related, and I don't want to loose the notes I have for him. There are so many Abel Shermans! Probably a descendant: Ohio marriages Abel Sherman to Margaret Brown by John Patterson, 6/1/1820, Washington Co
