The beginning of a small town


Sharpsburg at one time was a big receiving center for tobacco and Waller Sharp was one of the largest independent buyers in the state, handling from one to three million pounds per year.
Other buyers were William Peed, L.S. Rogers and a Mr. Bramlett.

         Waller Sharp Tobacco warehouse. Today the Grace Gospel Church sits in this location.
