Sharp-3722 and Sharp-3668 appear to represent the same person because: Same name, same husband.

https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Stevens-6893 for James Stevens of Abingdon Parish, indicates that his son, James Stevens, born June 2, 1703, married "Alice James" on August 26, 1744. This is after Ambrose Grayson's death. Her records of marriage to Ambrose presumably gave her name as Mrs. Alice James

Ok...next question. Is Alice Sharp the mother of Mary Ann Grayson b. 1718 d. 1758 m. John Catlett?

No, because Alice was married to John James at the time of Mary Ann Grayson's birth. Alice married Ambrose before November 1, 1726, but after the death of her first husband

Does Any have Alice Sharp also married to John James, and the mother of Elizabeth James (1726-1797)? If so...how?
