Biographical Details	Sharpe became a freeman of Stamford in 1714 on payment of £4 and his widow was admitted to his house in Barn Hill, Stamford by manorial court in 1764. Sharpe’s son, another Edward, was apprenticed to him and became a freeman of Stamford in 1749. The business may been considerable, for two earlier apprentices, Thomas Burbridge and William Bolland, had both become freemen of the town in 1732 (Stamford Archives).
