Susan BERRY married Jacksom RASH in Arkansas c 1848
Hello all,
I am looking for any information regarding Susan BERRY who married my ggg Grandfather, Jackson L. Rash.
Based on a transcipt of the 1850 census in Drew, Arkansas I suspect she may be the dau of John BERRY, as the families lived fairly close together (at least they were enumerated just three homesteads/houses apart.
That census reads:
202-202
John Berry 52 m farmer (born in) NC
Susan 45 f KY
Henry F. 13 m MS
John J. 11 m MS
William 9 m MS
203-203
Robt. Berry 22 m Farmer MS
204-204
Henry Berry 56 m farmer MS
Cinthia 42 f KY
Mary A. 16 f MS
John R. 14 m MS
Eugenia 11 f MS
Eumanza 9 f MS
Sarah A. 6 f MS
Henry 2/12 m AR
205-205
Jackson L. RASH 24 m farmer AL
Susan 23 f AL
Mary J. 2 f AR
John L. 3/12 m AR
Louisa J. 16 f TN

Now, I only have hearsay that Susan RASH was born a BERRY. I am trying to determine if this infor is correct. Since the RASHes lived close to several BERRY families in 1850, it is certainly plausible that Susan Rash was born Berry.
In the 1880 census, her father's birthplace is listed as NC, which makes me think she could be john's dau.
Any help greatly appreciated as always!
