    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Author: Pauline-Hale Surnames: Berry Day Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.tennessee.counties.hawkins/9352.3/mb.ashx Message Board Post: I am a descendant of Esther Day Berry (etc.) as well, through her son Francis Patrick "Pad" Berry. Please note the common discrepancy on his name; he is often mixed up with another Patrick Berry in Stone County: Patrick Cubine Berry. I have quite a bit of info on Esther's life, similar to that in your posting, but I am searching for Esther's burial site. I know that she was living with her widowed daughter-in-law Phoebe Berry (wife of Alexander Berry) in 1865 in Troy, KS, but I don't have any later info. I suspect that she is buried in the Berry family plot in Mt. Olive Cemetery near Troy, but I have not seen a headstone or listing for her. Another possibility is that she returned to Stone County after 1865 (or was taken there upon death) and was buried at Berry Cemetery where Francis Patrick is buried. No headstone shows her there, either. Any info would be appreciated. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
