My great great grandfather Andrew Jackson Berry b.1816 VA. married his second wife Sarah York b.1823 Guilford/Randolph NC. in 1840 Edgar county IL. Andrew's friend Charles A. Dotson married Mirian York,Sarahs sister.At her death in Gunnison CO.1910, Sarah Ellen York Berry was said to have had 130 grandchildren,great grandchildren,and a few great great grandchildren.Sarah Yorks path took her from NC.>IL.>Jasper county IA.>"Indian Territory"1870>across the Great Divide to Gunnison CO. in 1880.She was blind from the age of 29.Any info on Sarah or Andrew Jackson Berry would be kindly welcomed.We do not know Andrews family line,but Esther Berry McCord the daughter of Thomas Berry b.1718 of Washington couty VA.and David Mccord her son had properties close by to the Yorks.We suspect they are related.Thanks
