General William Tecumseh Sherman
I am doing research on General Sherman when he was a Major at Ft Fayette in Pittsburgh in the early 1850's via West Point records.He was under the command of Col AC Myers.About this time he quit the Army and joined the Lucas and Turner Bank in California.It's seems that the Lucas and turner Bank also had an office in Pittsburgh.Col AC Myers was noted several times in General Sherman's Memoirs.He describes in his memoirs his relationship to Col Myers as being both professional and personal.
I am following the AC Myers family and they seem to have a connection to Roger Sherman who signed the Declaration of Independents.Roger Sherman's granddaughter was married to Oliver L Phelps the son of surveyor Oliver Phelps of the Phelps and Gorham Purchase of Up State NY.The Myers family also seem to have a connection to Thomas Ewing who was General Sherman's father-in-law.
I was wondering if anyone might know of a connection of General Sherman and the Sherman family to Roger Sherman.I was also wondering if anyone would know of the intermarrying of the Jewish Myers and the Catholic Sherman families in San Francisco.
