He is the son of Robert Berry Jr. and Mary Camp. Robert Berry Jr. b. abt
1762 in Orange Co, NC and Mary Camp b. abt 1764 in Orange Co, NC. Robert
Berry Jr. and George Berry bought land together in Fayette Co, AL in 1824.
I have the land record. Robert Berry Jr. is the son of Robert Berry and
Elizabeth C. Cate. We have a DNA study for this family at FTDNA.
Representatives of several of Robert Sr's Children have taken the test. My

Berry b.1815 Orange Co, NC - George Berry b. 1790/1800 - Robert Berry Jr.
b.1762 - Robert Berry Sr. b.1730. Sarah Berry and John Berry were both in
Rusk Co, TX in 1860. A known descendant of Robert Berry Jr., from his son
