Re: Were does are name come from?
Sinally I found a Shears with some kind of connection to Missouri. My great grandfather John W Shears was born in Illinois in 1839. He had a brother named Harrison born in Illinois about 1845. They were both in Texas about 1860. From there I lost track of Harrison but my great grandfather went to Indian Territory (Oklahoma) I know he was there in 1900 and died there in 1913. Maybe this can help you and if you have any info I would appreciate it. Thanks Nora in Texas
