Subject: Different thoughts to ponder

While searching at ancestry.com some time back I had found another Larkin Berrey, this one was in Georgia and had served in the War of 1812. Considering we have our Larkin as being born in 1814, and Sharon believes our Larkin was born in Georgia, I had thought he was "suspect" in the who fathered Larkin Berrey mystery.

Has anyone done in research into Georgia?

Also, Shirley and Ben Berrey (non-internet cousins who still live in Ramer) and I have heard from older Berreys that Berrey was orginally pronounced Ber-rey (like the cute little french hats) and was of French origin. Has anyone else heard this?

And if what we had heard was correct, it makes me wonder about the original french settlers of Alabama. Has anyone seen anything available to do research on them?

We also have the list that Jackie's Uncle provided from the Morman records that lists a William Berrey possibly born in Ireland of the right age to be our Larkin's father.

I realize this three thoughts rather take us in different directions on the hunt.... but all have occured to me and I thought I'd see what y'all think.

Katherine
