Hi, just thought that I would write to you re:your
Berryhill family. I have a whole lot of information
on Martha Derrisaw and John Berryhill and their
children, they had a son Alexander and at one time
I thought that this was my family, then I found a
letter written by my grandmother & recorded into
the records at the US Archives It was written to
the war dept before 1919, My grandmother died in
1919. and she was working on her family genealogy
before that and she was trying to find the correct
Alexander Berryhill. I have a lot of your family
records on disks I got this information from the
LDS family history centers computers, if you don't
have the information that they have & don't have
acsess to a LDS FHC and would like it please let
me know. Martha, as I am sure you know, was a Creek
Indian, and she and was on the Trail of Tears with
a couple of her daughters & I believe she died
shortly after arriving in the New Cherokee Nation
Land in Oklahoma. If I can be of any information
to you please write. When I found that I didn't
belong this this branch of the Berryhill family
I felt as if I had lost an arm and therefore I
kept everything I had on them... I had always had
a strong interest in Indian History and everything
felt right. Your almost close cousin. Mary Liz.
