• Notes

  Henry Sherman (1546-1610) was a Clothier and lived and worked in "Sherman's Hall", which is in Dedham, Essex, England. His father bequethed to him "my Shearman's crafte" and added, "I give to Henry Shearman, my son, all the household which is in his house which he hath already". Thus it seems he was already living and working in "Shearman Hall". And there he presumably lived and worked throughout his life. At age 23 he married Susan Lawrnece and they produced seven sons and four daughters. The fifth son, John, was the ancestor of Hon. Roger Sherman, signer of the Declaration of Independence for Connecticut. Henry and his wife died within two weeks of one another, perhaps of the same malady. and their wills were probated on the same day, September 12, 1618. Both are buried at Dedham, England
