William Tecumseh Sherman was born in 1820 in Lancaster, Ohio. When his father died in 1829, his mother sent "Cump" to be raised by neighbors, the Thomas Ewing family. In 1843, Lieutenant Sherman became engaged to Ewing's daughter Ellen Boyle Ewing; in 1850 they were married. Ellen was his only wife; they had eight children and remained married until her death in 1888. The following link takes you to the Sherman family papers at the University of Notre Dame Archives.
