Looking for the Sheridan family

 I am a Metaldetectorist and Metal Detecting is my hobby. I was detecting Russel Middle school yesterday (one of many time I have been there) and found a very interesting bracelet. I do not know if you know but that school dates back to the mid 20's and was a girls school then, it has been a high school as well. I have been looking for history of the school and the bracelet seems to be just that! The Name on the Sterling silver bracelet is Billy Sheridan who went to the school in the 50's and became a city Councilman for Winder in 1971 till 2005 when he passed away. I know he also held a few school records for football and baseball and a plaque was placed in the school in his honor. I would like to see if you would help me in tracking down his family and seeing if they would want it back.  I would like to find out also if he wore this of a girl friend did.

Thanks for your time
