In 2019, she received the James Dent Walker Award from the Afro-American Historical & Genealogical Society, the highest honor given to genealogists in her specialty.

Sharon has not only devoted her life to genealogy but has also actively fought racism head-on, as detailed in her book “Gather at the Table,” co-written with Thomas DeWolf, a descendent of one of the largest slave-owning families in United States history.
