Hi Terri.
I have some information about Sarah Elizabeth Chadwick (b. 1830, Lower Merion, PA).
As you noted in another post, she married Christian Sharps (07 Mar 1852 in Manayunk, PA). You can view their marriage certificate at http://www.familyboard.org/GenContent/MC%20-%20Christian%20Sharps%20&%20Sarah%20Chadwick.pdf (you may need to copy and paste that link into your browser).
I also have a photograph of Sarah. I will post again once I get it scanned and uploaded.
Robert Chadwick (b. 20 May 1823 Bancroft's Banks PA, d. 1885) Married Ellen M. Watson (b. 1836, Hartfort CT).
In 1851 Robert went to Hartford, Conn., to take charge of the cartridge-factory of Sharpe's rifle-works. At the end of two years he bought out the cartridge-works and continued to operate them for ten years.
A drawing/engraving of Robert can be found at http://www.lowermerionhistory.org/photodb/web/html3/094-1.html
I expect you've already found the History of Montgomery County, Pennsylvania by William J. Buck (1884) (available online at http://www.lowermerionhistory.org/texts/1884_buck.html) and Manufacturing Industries by Theodore W. Bean (1884) (available online at http://www.lowermerionhistory.org/texts/1884_bean_manuf.html). These contain some valuable information about Robert, Sarah, and their father, William.
I also have information about Sarah's mother, Lucy Thompson if that is of interest.
I'm interested to hear what information you may have about the Chadwicks of Lower Merion.
Michael
