The History of Sheridan

William Sheridan Brock and Celeste Brock
(Mandy's parents)

Sammy’s great-great-grandfather, Ronald Sheridan Brock, got his middle name from the name of a general, in true Yankee fashion (according to Jean Brock, Sammy's great-grandmother). Jean named her son William Sheridan Brock, after her father-in-law (RSB), who she loved as her own father. William Sheridan Brock (WSB) is my step-father, who I love as my own father, and who I wanted to honor by naming our son Samuel Sheridan Klevenski. Some meanings of the name Samuel include “God has heard” and “Asked of God.”

Johnny was named Jonathan Walter Klevenski, his middle name coming from Keith's father Walter William Klevenski. The name Jonathan means "Gift of God."
