Subject: My Answer to Guesswork ?

Hi Katherine,
I think I have unraveled some of the guesswork on the estate of Elijah Berrey. These are records from IGI. Here goes: Elijah Berrey b 1778 m Sarah Rich 1811 d 1850. They had 11 children but I will only name those we are interested in. William Harrison Berry b 1819, Elijah S Berrey b 1821, Larkin Dabney Berry b 1826. So your theory of Elijah and William being brothers is correct according to these records. His son Larkin Dabney Berry would have been 24 years old and probably was the one who did the repairs on the house. This Larkin D Berry married a Montgomery girl Mary Ann Polly Walter in 1852 in Montgomery so he was probably living in Montgomery when his father died.These Berry's were all born in Elbert Georgia and seem to have migrated to Alabama and married Alabama Girls. It doesn't look like this is our Larkin but I wonder if they are related because the same given names keep showing up in these families.Jackie
