Genevieve,
The Ingram's are associated with the Sparrow's through marriage. William Ingram married Margaret Sparrow.
Margaret Sparrow was a half sister to Abraham Lincoln's Mother Nancy Hanks Lincoln. Nancy Hanks Lincoln's mother was Lucy Shipley Hanks Sparrow. Lucy married Henry Sparrow after her first Husband James Hanks. Henry and Lucy Sparrow had many children one of which was Margaret and another was James. James was my GGG Grandfather thus Henry and Lucy are my GGGG Grandparents.

So Lucy Sparrow was the grandmother of Abraham lincoln by her daughter Nancy Hanks from her first marriage.
Then she married Henry Sparrow.
They had several children:

George
James
Margaret
Henry
etc.

James Sparrow fathered Thomas.
Thomas fathered Jack
Jack fathered Lester
Lester fathered Charles
Charles is my dad.

I hate dead ends as well.
Jerry
