(51,77,9kn)

William Carroll Byrd [C1a8c1i2c], son of John Richard Byrd and Susan Rebecca Nichols, was born 15 December 1834 in Hardin Co TN. He married Emily Tennessee Fitzhugh in Hardin Co on 8 February 1855 in Hot Spring Co AR. In 1860 they lived at Big Creek, Hot Spring Co AR close to his uncle Samuel David Byrd [C1a8c1i6]. Emily was born on 5 November 1840 in Marshall Co MS and died on 1 August 1880 at Counce, Hardin Co. Carroll died on 18 February 1898 and was buried next to Emily in Old White Sulphur Cemetery in Hardin Co. In 1880 they lived in Hardin Co next door to William’s brother Noel Cherry Byrd. After Emily died, William apparently married again to Susan M Gum- away, and had more children. In 1900 widow Susan lived next door to her step-son Demp- sey in District 6 and in Susan's home was "son" Grundy F Byrd," age 31 and shown last of the children in her home, as if he were a step-child from a prior marriage. Susan was born 150 And NORTHEAST NORTH CAROLINA

in September 1845 in TN. In 1910 she lived with her brother William Tom Gumaway in District 6; her daughter Liddy also lived with them in 1910. Susan was still living with her brother in 1920, but was not found in 1930. Her brother Tom was living in District 6 in 1930, and was an "uncle" to Charles H Long and wife Esther L Byrd [C1a8c1i2c11]. This was next door to Herbert Smith and his wife Mary Byrd [C1a8c1i2d10d]. William and Emily had at least eight children; with Susan he had six more- 1. Mary E Byrd, b 1859 at Big Creek, Hot Spring Co AR. (380q,9rs) 2. William Henry Byrd, b Dec 1862 3.

William Henry Byrd [C1a8c1i2c2], son of William Carroll Byrd and Emily Tennessee Fitzhugh, was born in December 1862 at Big Creek, Hot Spring Co AR (age 18 in 1880, 30 in 1900, 48 in 1910, 57 in 1920). He lived in Hardin Co TN in 1870 and for years after. William married twice. His first wife was Sudie Mark (Delphia Myrick?); they married in Hardin Co on 14 July 1887. The second wife was Ellen J Carroll. She was born in 1876 in AL and married William in Hardin Co on 28 February 1894. Ellen died in 1940 and was buried in They lived in Hardin Co's Disctrict 6. Ellen claimed she had three children by 1900 and nine by 1910, but with just four still alive in 1910. Six children born in ten years seems unlikely; perhaps the number of children claimed in the 1910 census also included William's first wife's children- a. Nellie Blanche Byrd, b 18 Mar 1889 b. Allie P Byrd, b Jul 1897 (9uv) c. Lourie Marree Byrd, b Sep 1898 (9v) d. child Byrd, b & d abt 1899 (9uv) e. Andy G Byrd, b 1905 (9vw) f. Herbert Byrd, b 1906. He married Omie Alice Woodin in 1924. She was born at Counce, Hardin Co on 3 September 1903, daughter of James Matthews Woodin (1879- 1919) and Mary Rosaline Welch (1885-1915), and died at Hayward, Alameda Co CA on 27 May 1990. Herbert died in Sacramento Co CA on 28 October 1978. In 1930 they were living in District 6 in Hardin Co, and had two sons by then- The CHERRY FAMILIES Of EARLY NORFOLK Co VA 151

1. Jerry Byrd, b Oct 1925 (9f) 2. Norman Cherry Byrd, b 9 Sep 1927, died 20 Marchb 1969 and was buried in Shanghai I in Hardin Co south of Pickwick Dam. There are two Shangai Ceme- teries, quite close to each other. The one where Norman was buried is the northern most of the two. (9fc) 3. Donald Terry Byrd, b 20 Nov 1934, died 9 June 1936 and was buried in Shanghai I Cemetery in Hardin Co south of Pickwick Dam. Since there were only two Byrd graves in this cemetery, both born within 7 years of each other, then Donald is assumed to be a brother of Norman Cherry Byrd. (9c) (CAd,9vwf) g. Jennie Byrd, b 1912 (9wf) h. Albert Byrd, b 9 Dec 1915, died at Counce, Hardin Co on 11 June 1975. He was buried in Centerhill Cemetery at Counce. Albert married Edith J _____.

William R Byrd [C1a8c1i5a], son of Thomas W Byrd and Mariah Smith, was born 3 March 1836 at Pickwick, Hardin Co TN. He married Arena Robertson about 1855. She was born in 1830. William died 4 June 1911 at Red Sulphur Springs, Hardin Co. They had two children by 1860- 1. Mary Jane Byrd, b 20 Nov 1856 2. Thomas Josephus Byrd, b 1858 (C,9knqd)

Tempy Carroway [C1a6e5a1], daughter of Tempy Kennedy and _____ Carroway, was born before March 1822, and probably in the 1810s, in Martin Co NC. She was named in her grandmother Ruth Cherry's March 1822 will. (91)

Alexander Blair Cathey [C1a6e4f1da2], daughter of Theo Adeline Vaughan and Alexander Blair Cathey, was born 19 April 1935 in Columbia, TN. (55)

A David W Cherry [C1a8c1p3], son of David Cherry and Nancy ____, was born in 1824 in Hardin Co TN. He married Ann Eliza Malone in Winston Co MS on 18 August 1848. She was born in TN in 1832. They lived in Winston Co in 1850, where his parents had moved soon before. David was dead by 1870 and Ann then lived in Kemper Co MS. Her son Isaac was then working on the next door neighbor's farm. David and Ann had five children, the last four in MS- a. Isaac F Cherry, b 1849 b. Nannie Cherry, b 1855 c. Emma Cherry, b 1856 d. David Cherry, b 1861 e. George Cherry, b 1865 (W,9jk,73mn,360r)

A J Cherry [unknown], married Rachael A McCauly in Haywood Co TN on 17 December 1861. He apparently died by 1867 (in the Civil War?), because she married D D Mays on 5 February 1867 in Haywood Co. Rachel was born about 1843. (29m) 152 And NORTHEAST NORTH CAROLINA

Aaron Cherry [C1a2f], son of John Cherry III and Sarah Spring (Aaron was a son of Samuel Maund Cherry and Frances Ballentine, per Thigpen), was born in 1717 in Norfolk Co VA. He lived in Bertie Co NC in 1755, 1757, and 1769 since he was on the county tax lists then. Aaron married Mary Pierce. If she was the mother of his children, she must have been born by the early 1720s. Aaron died without a will. After his death, his widow Mary married James Warren in Bertie Co on 21 June 1788 (see Bethia Cherry [C1a3c]). James later provided the bond for the marriage of his step-son Thomas Cherry and Thomas' second wife Rachel Outlaw. Aaron had the following children (order probably incorrect)- 1. Theophilus Cherry, b late 1730s? 2. Erastus Cherry, b abt 1745 3. Sarah Cherry, b bef 1750 4. Rebecca Cherry, b bef 1750 5. Frances Cherry, b bef 1750 6. Robert Cherry, b 1749 7. George Cherry, b bef 1750 8. Solomon Cherry, b abt 1750 9. Thomas Cherry, b abt 1755 10. John Cherry?, was a witness to possible brother Robert Cherry's 1809 Edgecombe Co will. Robert had a son named John who received an inheritance in the will, so shouldn't have been a witness to the same will. Perhaps witness John Cherry was a brother of Robert. (95,JY) 11. William Cherry (was named as an uncle to Solomon's son William Walton Cherry (source 93). William was graduated from the University of NC in 1800 in a class of three, was a trustee of the university from 1804 to 1809, and had a brilliant career as an attorney until his early death at the age of 27. Therefore his birth date was after 1782. Could he be the William Cherry who married Peggy Baker in Bertie Co on 13 November 1801?) There was no William Cherry in Bertie Co in 1810. (57,93,C,WD,6meht)

Aaron Cherry [C1a3f2a], son of Thomas Robert Cherry and Sarah Rhodes, was born in 1760 in Bertie Co NC. Aaron was living in Bertie Co in 1781 since he was on the county tax roster then, and was still there in most of the 1790s (a son was born there). Aaron moved to Edgecombe Co near the end of the 1790s. He was in Edgecombe Co in 1800 through 1830. In 1830 he was living close to Charles Wilkinson and Lunsford R Cherry, had ten slaves, and was apparently married, with no children in his household. Aaron married in the early 1790s. He left a will in Edgecombe Co dated 16 January 1835 (Book F, page 182). In it he named his wife Elizabeth and children. Aaron died in Edgecombe Co on 1 October 1835 and his estate was in probate the following month. His executors were Charles W Knight and Jesse C Knight. Aaron gave to his son Lunsford R Cherry a Negro Elisha after Aaron's wife's death, to son Lewis K Cherry he gave the "land and plantation whereon I at present reside" after wife Elizabeth dies, and a Negro boy named Ben, and to daughter Sarah R Jones "my Negro woman Hatty & her increase, and my Negro girl Milly & her increase after the death of my beloved wife Elizabeth Cherry." Aaron named his "worthy friends" Charles W Knight and Jesse C Knight to be the executors. Aaron married Elizabeth Holmes Knight on 22 July 1798. She was born 3 March 1773 and died on 14 January 1841, daughter of John Joshua Knight and Ann Lucretia Cherry [unknown] (per 77 & PA), or was a daughter of John Knight and Elizabeth Stokes (per 151). The CHERRY FAMILIES Of EARLY NORFOLK Co VA 153

James Knight, in his 20 July 1844 will, made a gift to the "2 eldest sons of Linsford R Cherry." William R Cherry acted as security. Elizabeth's will (Book F, page 250), dated 12 March 1840, was probated in February 1841 in Edgecombe Co. She left all property to her daughter Sallie, and a legacy of $1,000 to the heirs of son Lewis. In 1840 she was not the head of her household, so must have been living with one of her children. Elizabeth's obituary was also noted in the January 16 edition of the Tarboro Press. Aaron had two sons under the age of 10 by 1800 (and 15 slaves). He and Elizabeth had three children- 1. Lunsford Rhodes Cherry, b 22 Jul 1798 2. Lewis Knight Cherry, b 21 October 1799 3. Sarah Rhodes Cherry, b 30 Jul 1802 On 26 Jan 1846 Nancy Ward, Lydia Austin, Joseph John Porter, Nancy Porter, Joseph John Pippin, James Knight, John Knight, Celia L Staton, Jesse C Knight, Lunsford R Cherry, and Sally R Jones sold their interest in the estate of William W Knight deceased to Charles W Knight (Edgecombe Co deed book 24, page 223). All names here mentioned concerning the estate sale must have been heirs to the late William W Knight. Since Lunsford's wife Elizabeth Knight had died in 1841, before her father's estate was settled, Lunsford inherited his wife's inheritance, and then sold it to a brother-in-law in 1846. Not all of the sellers were children of William W Knight; some must have been grandchildren, or children-in-law as was the case with Lunsford. John Knight of Susex Co left a will dated 23 Jul 1786, which was in probate on 3 Feb 1791. In it he named nine children: Isaac Knight (born 1757); Lucretia Cherry Knight (1760- 1826, married Joseph John Pippin); Walker Knight (1762-1833); Lewis Knight (1763, married Mrs Edith _____ Foster in 1797, and married Rebecca Vaughan in 1805); Francis Epps Knight (1766-1808, lived Edgecombe Co); Rhoda Knight (born 1768); Sylvanna Knight (1770-1843, married Sarah _____ and lived in Washington Co GA); Elizabeth Knight (1773-1841, married Aaron Cherry); Charles W Knight, (1775-1848, married Charlotte Bell and lived Edgecombe Co); Charlotte Knight, lived Edgecombe Co; John Knight, lived Edgecombe Co. The just named Lucretia Cherry Knight and Joseph John Pippin had children: Nancy Pippin, who married Luke Ward; Lydia Pippin married a Mr Austin; Martha Pippin married Eli Porter and had son Joseph John Porter and daughter Nancy Porter; and Joseph John Pippin Jr. (JA,57,77, 83,64, 94,95, C,151, 5pehij,6t)

Aaron Cherry [C1a2f9d], son of Thomas Cherry and Rachel Outlaw, was born in the latter half of 1795 in Bertie Co NC. He was named in his father's September 1812 will, and was living in Snake Bite Township in Bertie Co in 1870, when he was 74. In 1850 he was single (age 54), living four doors from Mrs Elizabeth _____ Cherry (age 63, and perhaps a widow of one of his brothers?), and the James Duers family (age 66) with whom Elizabeth was living. In 1840 this same Elizabeth was living between William J Cherry and Theophilus Cherry; Aaron was then still unmarried, living close to his brother James Cherry [C1a3f9e]. Aaron married Elizabeth Harmon in Bertie Co on 4 November 1852. Bond was provided by William J Cherry [?], and witnesses were Jeremiah Bunch Jr, Richard T Harmon, and Charles Harmon. Elizabeth was born in 1824 in NC. In 1860 Aaron and his family were living three doors from his younger brother Thomas. Aauron died by 24 Febru- ary 1873; on that date the Bertie Co court allowed widow "Elizabeth D B Cherry" to take a year's worth of provisions from Aaron's estate,including $300 for her and $100 for each of their three children still at home- 1. Mary E Cherry, b 1854 154 And NORTHEAST NORTH CAROLINA

2. Margaret E Cherry, b 1857 3. Keddy Ann Cherry, b 1859 (69,57,105,C,6knqrm) There were three Aaron Cherrys in Edgecombe Co in 1830.

Aaron Cherry [C1a8h1k], son of Levi Cherry and Sarah _____ of Edgecombe Co NC, was born about 1798 in Edgecombe Co, and was named as an heir in his mother's 1835 estate records. (Aaron was age under 10 in the 1810 Edgecombe Co census; age between 16 and 26 in the 1820 Edgecombe Co census; age in the 20s in the 1830 Edgecombe Co census; age in the 40s in the 1840 Edgecombe Co census; age 53 in the 1850 Edgecombe Co census, while his wife was age 54 then). Aaron married Eliza _____ by 1820. She was born in NC in 1796, and in 1830 they were still in Edgecombe Co, two doors from his mother. He was too old to be a son of any of Levi's sons, and because his home was so close to Sarah, it is assumed that Aaron was her son. Aaron and Eliza had no children by 1830 or 1840. In 1850 he was still in Edgecombe Co. In 1850 Mrs Anna Thigpen (Anna Cherry, Aaron's sister) was living nearby. Living with Aaron and Eliza was Eliza Harris, age 18. Aaron died on 15 November 1858, "age about 60," from burns. (77,5pjkn)

Aaron B Cherry [C1a8i3d1h], son of Alford Cherry and Sarah Miller, was born in 1848 in Warren Co KY. He married Mary Tom Young in Warren Co on 17 December 1872. She was born 19 September 1853, daughter of James Hudnell Young (1825-1871) and Louisa Miller (1827-1901). Aaron and Mary lived near Greencastle in 1880, close to his brother Elijah. Aaron and Mary had two children by then- 1. Elliot Cherry, b 1875 in Warren Co KY (57s) 2. Laura Cherry, b 1878 in Warren Co KY (57s) (57iknqc)

Abigail Cherry [C1a8m], daughter of Lemuel Cherry and Gatsey Ann Llewellyn, was born about 1742 in Beaufort Co NC. She was alive in July 1754 when her father's will was written. (57,WD,4p)

Abner Cherry [C1a5e6], son of Job Cherry and Abiah Ventures, was born about 1768 in Tyrrell Co NC. He was not the head of his own home in 1790, but by 1800 had married and was living in Martin Co near his father's household. Abner was named in his father's will as an executor in February 1811 (as was Jesse Cherry). He inherited a lot and house in Williamston, "formerly belonging to Jonathan Cherry." On 27 October 1806 Abner sold two Negro girls named Silvey and Besse, aged about 17, to James Everett Jr for £450. This transaction was witnessed by James Ward, John Ward, and Jesse Morris. The Wards may have been relatives of Sarah Biggs; see page 796. Abner also was an executor, along with Darling Cherry, for the estate of John Winberry in 1815 in Martin Co. On 10 November 1807 Abner Cherry sold 96½ acres to George Roebuck, both of Martin Co, land bounded on one side by property of William Biggs. He was still in Martin Co in 1810. In 1832 an Abner Cherry won land tracts in the 1832 "give away" of the Cherokee Indian land, in Bibb Co GA. Abner's wife was born circa 1775 and they had three children by 1800, and at least eight by 1810. There is a marriage record in Bibb Co between an Abner Cherry and Sarah Trent dated 25 February 1828. Because the Abner of this biography was by this time about 60 years old, this 1828 marriage could have been of a son (or grandson?). The senior Abner lived at Macon, Bibb Co GA in 1830; only a young teen granddaughter and a daughter (or daughter-in-law?) age in the 30s were at home with him. The CHERRY FAMILIES Of EARLY NORFOLK Co VA 155

This young woman was of age to be Abner’s eldest daughter, or a widow of one of Abner’s sons.

Other winners, many of whom had names linked with familiar NC Cherry names, were: Abner Cherry, Happy Cherry, Howell (Harwell?) Cherry, Isaac Cherry, Lemuel Cherry, Spencer Cherry, Wilie Cherry, and others. Job Cherry also lived at Macon, Bibb Co in 1830. He was in his 20s, and may have been Abner’s son. (91,77,115,116,120,C,1aehp,53j)

Abner Cherry [C2d1c3b12], son of Amos J Cherry and Alice J Noe, was born 2 May 1889 at Radford Station, Christian Co IL, the county at the southeast side of Sangamon Co. Abner was still single in 1910, boarding at Springfield in the James Stringham home (the census taker wrote his name as Adler, not Abner). He died in August 1968 in Cook Co. Abner married Margaret J Murry about 1912. She was born 30 July 1890 in IL, and died at Springfield in July 1980. Abner was a teamster in 1917 and 1920 for the local coal mine company at Springfield. In 1942 he lived at Arlington Heights, Cook Co and had a grocery store there called Cherry Market. They had two daughters- a. Alice M Cherry, b 1913 (68w) b. Mary R Cherry, b 1916 (68w) (W,M,68uw)

Abbot Cherry [C1a6b2a2e4], son of Nehemiah W Cherry and Mary Ann Rogers, was born in 1855 in Stewart Co TN. (37yq)

Abraham Mack Cherry [C1a7d4c2c3], son of Andrew Cherry and Louisa J Newman, was born 27 September 1887 in TN. He always used just his middle name; his first name was revealed when he registered for the WW I draft. In 1910 Mack lived with his brother George in Clay Co.

Bedford Cicero Cherry [C1a7d4c1e1], son of Harrison Wayne Cherry and Julia America Crayton Cherry, was born 29 April 1875 in Clay Co TN, and died in 6 April 1956. He married Mattie Jessie Moon in Clay Co on 17 February 1901. Turner Cherry helped provide the marriage bond. The marriage record writing is very clear, and the bride's name was clearly written as "Mattie Moon." Mattie was born 31 August 1879, daughter of John Whitson "Sheep John" Moore (he a son of Alfred G Moore and Irene _____) and Malinda Malone Hestand (she a daughter of Daniel B Hestand and Susan Pennington), and died on 19 March 1974 at Springfield, Robertson Co.

Belinda Frances Cherry [C1a8c1h8], daughter of Daniel Cherry and Sarah Turner, was born 11 December 1824 in Haywood Co TN. She married Eason Jones on 4 November 1839 in Haywood Co. Belinda was known by her middle name. In 1850 she and Eason were 196 And NORTHEAST NORTH CAROLINA

living in Gibson Co, about two counties northwest of Hardin Co. He was born in Bertie Co NC in 1802, and had moved to TN from Bertie Co. He was a sheriff. By 1850 they had four or five children, but were not found in the area in 1860 or 1870. Belinda died on 14 December 1853. Her children were probably all born in Gibson Co- a. Sarah Jones, b 1841 b. Lavinia Jones, b 1844 c. perhaps Ann Jones, b 1844 d. Laura Jones, b 1847 e. Calvin Jones, b 1849 Possible daughter Ann was listed with the family in the 1850 census, but as the last person, as if she may have been a niece and not a daughter. (77,57,69,114,13n)

Ben Cherry [unknown], married Jessie Milligan in Hardin Co TN on 31 October 1878. (9m)

Ben Russell Cherry [C1a6e2h1b6d], son of Charles Calhoun Cherry and Mamie Eliza Ethridge, was born 26 January 1913 at Kerens, Navarro Co TX and grew up there. He married Mary Nell Shelton. She was born 5 January 1915 at Kerens, daughter of Thomas M Shelton and Lila Elizabeth ______, and died 12 September 2005 in Navarro Co. She was buried in Prairie Point Cemetery. Her husband Ben died 28 March 1988 in Navarro Co. They had at least two children born in Navarro Co- 1. Linda Nell Cherry, b 26 Oct 1939 2. Benny Lynn Cherry, b 2 Aug 1948 The person who supplied personal information for Mary Nell Shelton’s mother’s death certificate was daughter (Mrs) Mary Nell Cherry, but she did not know the names of her mother’s parents. Mrs Lila Shelton was buried in Bazette Baptist Cemetery at Kerens. (W,Z, TXbd,382Nwf,340d)

Benjamin Cherry [C2] of Ireland came to Norfolk Co VA soon before 1740. He was an adult when he arrived, and at that time may have already had some children. Therefore he must have been born by about 1710. Ben's sons were- a. William Cherry [C2a], b 1730s b. Joel Cherry [C2b], b 1730s c. Andrew Cherry [C2c], b 1730s d. Benjamin Cherry II [C2d], b 1744 Benjamin Cherry [C2] and descendants will have their ID#s in Red Text. All of this Ben’s descendants have an ID# starting [C2... In NC, where some of the Benjamin Cherry descendants lived for a short time in the late 1780s to about 1804, the 1790 Federal Census has the family name Cherry more than any other surname. (FC,JY)

Benjamin Cherry II [C2d], son of immigrant Benjamin Cherry Sr [C2], was born in Norfolk Co VA in 1744. He moved to Chester Co PA with his father, and probably married Mary Peterson there, about 1764. She was an English woman. Ben was found on the Chester Co tax rosters in 1765, 1766, and in 1769. He was a shoe cobbler, and by 1779 he owned 100 acres. He died in Chester Co in 1789, but was probably buried in Bedford Co PA where his sons had moved. The 1790 census of Bedford Co shows sons Benjamin Cherry and The CHERRY FAMILIES Of EARLY NORFOLK Co VA 197

Peterson Cherry in the same neighborhood. In son Benjamin’s home there were ten females. Since son Benjamin was born in 1765, he was only 25 when this first census was taken. Hence he could not have had nine daughters (and one wife) by then. Therefore most of the females must have been his sisters. Benjamin II and Mary had at least two sons and many daughters. Few records exist to prove definitely which Cherry people who were born between 1790 to 1815 were children of Benjamin II’s sons Peterson or Benjamin III. From birth places of Benjamin Cherry II’s grandchildren, and from state tax records, we can see that Benjamin II’s sons, and probably daughters, moved south from PA to GA, with a stop for a few years in the early 1790s in NC. We do know from tax records that Peterson and Benjamin lived in Franklin Co GA in the 1800 to 1808 years, and some of their children were born there (John Cherry, born 1797). From 1850 census records from central IL, we can see that some of Benjamin Cherry II’s grandchildren were also born in NC. Those born in TN (Peterson Cherry, born 1808, James H Cherry, born 1811, and Mrs Lourea Cherry Vance, born 1815) were born after the grandchildren born in GA. The tax records for the three eldest sons end in Franklin Co in 1808, when they moved to Overton Co TN. But records for Overton Co are scanty, and the first census for TN does not exist until 1820. By 1820, son William was not in Overton Co, but another William Cherry a generation younger was. Back in Franklin Co GA there was a Samuel Cherry who was an adult by 1818, ten years after Ben and Peterson moved to TN. Perhaps son William remained in GA and he was the father of Samuel Cherry and other Cherry people in Franklin Co GA in later years. As we find the grandchildren of Benjamin Cherry II in central IL in the 1820 to 1850 years, whenever you find any born in GA in the 1795-1808 years, then these must be children of Ben II’s sons Peterson or Benjamin; none were found who gave a PA birthplace in the 1850 census. Only NC, GA, and TN were given as birth places- 1. Benjamin Cherry III, b 1765 2. Peterson Cherry, b 1767 3. James Harvey Cherry, b 1774 4. William N Cherry, b abt 1775 5. dau Cherry, b bef 1790 in Chester Co PA. She married James Russell. He was named in Ben Cherry III's 1830 probate records, and was one of the four men who bought 100 acres in Overton Co TN on 28 April 1818 for $385. The other three were Peter Cherry (no doubt Peterson, brother of Benjamin III), Benjamin Cherry III, and Harvey Cherry (James Harvey Cherry, probably a brother of Peterson and Benjamin). They were shown as "all of Overton County." In 1820 in Overton Co TN there was no James Russell, but there were four Cherry families: Elijah, James H, Peterson, and Wesley Cherry. The only Russell in the county in 1820 was Solomon A Russell. There was a James Russell in White Co, the county bordering Overton Co to the south. That James had eight children by then and four male slaves. James was age 26-44 (born 1776-1794) and his wife about the same age. The children’s ages (four sons and four daughters) indicate they married in the early 1790s. There was also a James Russell in Smith Co TN in 1820, two counties to the west of Overton Co. This James was the same age, born 1776-1794, but he had no wife. His two children living with him were a (widowed?) daugher born 1795-1804, plus one young girl born in the 1810s. (FC, 70iz,69a,106i,107i) 5. six daughters Cherry 198 And NORTHEAST NORTH CAROLINA

Bedford Co PA had many 400 acre land grant to people with a Cherry name, all on 10 Feb 1794: Moses, Thomas, Aaron, Mary, Jane, Godfrey, William, James, Ralph, Jay, Nancy, and John Cherry. These bounty land warrants were grants of free land issued to veterans in return for military service from the time of the Revolutionary War through 1855. John Cherry was on the 1773 Bedford Co tax list. (FC, 71at)

Benjamin Cherry III [C2d1], son of Benjamin Cherry II and Mary Peterson, was born in 1765 in Chester Co PA (his father was on the Chester Co tax roster during those years). He was found in Bedford Co PA in the 1790 census, with his brother Peterson living close by. (Chester Co is in southeast PA, and Bedford Co was then four counties to the west, also bordering MD on the south.) PA Archives (Series 5, Volume 4, page 601) of 1785 lists Ben as having been a Private from Bedford Co PA in the Revolution, so between 1779 and 1785 he had moved westward four counties. By 1790 Ben had married and had one daughter, then moved south to NC and stayed in NC for just a few years, then he and brother Peterson moved on to Franklin Co GA with their families. We know they were in Franklin Co in the late 18th century, to about 1807 because of tax records in Franklin Co between 1800 and 1806, and because of birth places given by his children in 1850. In 1808 Ben and brother Peterson completed the sale of their GA land and moved to Overton Co TN. Ben died by 1830, probably in Macoupin Co IL; he had married a second wife, Rebecca Crawford, and she was a widow in Macoupin Co in 1830. She was born in TN in 1792 and had two sons and a daughter living with her in 1830. There is a gravestone in the Scottville area of IL, in Panther Creek Cemetery, of "Rebecca Cherry, wife of Ben J" died in 1869 age "77 yr 2 mo." In 1860 Rebecca lived with her granddaughter Rebecca Vance and her husband George W Rice in Macoupin Co. Ben’s named heirs were two sons and his daughter. Ben had at least three children from the second marriage, plus he had children from the first- a. dau Cherry, b abt 1788 b. Benjamin C Cherry IV, b 26 Jan 1790 c. Elijah Cherry, b 1792 d.

Benjamin Cherry V [C2d1b8], son of Benjamin C Cherry IV and Elizabeth Strick- land, was born in 1832 in Sangamon Co IL. He married Eliza Barnes in Sangamon Co on 18 October 1855, and died in 1874 at Riverton, Sangamon Co. Eliza was born in 1839 in NY. They lived at Russell Gulch, Arapahoe Co KS in 1860 where Ben was a miner. In 1870 Eliza lived back in Sanghamon Co with her mother, Mrs Catherine Barnes (born 1818 in PA). Ben had at least two sons- a. Charles R Cherry, b 1856 in Sangamon Co. After his parents separated and his mother moved back to Sangamon Co, Charles lived with Jonathan Huckelberry at Illiopolis in 1870. Charles lived at Buffalo Heart, Sangamon Co in 1880, and was still single. He later worked in a watch factory at Springfield, IL, but became lost from the family history. In 1860 he and his parents lived at Russell Gulch, Arapahoe Co KS. Jonathan The CHERRY FAMILIES Of EARLY NORFOLK Co VA 199

Huckelberry was a brother of David Huckelberry who married Charles Cherry’s aunt Elmyra Cherry [C2d1b5]. (FC, 68nrs,108q) b. Willis Cherry, apparently died in infancy. (77,FC) (FC,68knmr108q)

Benjamin Cherry [unknown] of Beaufort Co NC was a soldier in the War of 1812, in the 2nd Company. He was probably the Benjamin Cherry in Beaufort Co in 1820, born between 1776 and 1794. He may have been a descendant of a recent Irish ancestor, not a descendant of John Cherry of Norfolk Co VA. The only Ben / Benjamin Cherry in NC in 1840 was a Benjamin Cherry in Beaufort Co. Ben had a wife of about the same age, and a son by 1820- 1. son Cherry, b 1811-1820 (106,JC,4i)

Benjamin Cherry [unknown] of Edgecombe Co NC was an heir of Hartwell Phillips, deceased, as of 24 September 1806 (Deed book 12, page 334). He was not found in Edgecombe Co in 1840. (83)

Benjamin Cherry [unknown] lived in Beaufort Co NC in 1840 and in 1850. He was born in NC in 1809; living with him in 1850 at Tranters Creek was Joel Cherry, age 16. Next door was Jack Cherry, married to Thurry _____. Jack was born in 1803, and Thurry in 1810, both born in NC. Nearby was John Cherry (age 49) and wife Theresa (age 40), both born in NC, and a large household. (4n)

Benjamin Batts Cherry [C1a3f6d5a], son of Thomas Franklin Cherry and Emily Lee Batts, was born 15 January 1864 in Edgecombe Co NC. He died on 22 May 1869 and is buried in the Isaac Batts family graveyard five miles from Tarboro. (84)

Benjamin C Cherry IV [C2d1b], son of Benjamin Cherry III and an unknown mother, was born 26 January 1790 in Franklin Co GA (1850 census says NC, 1860 census says GA). In 1807 his family moved to Overton Co TN. On 28 April 1818 Ben, and his uncle Peterson Cherry, and Harvey Cherry, and brother-in-law James Russell "all of Overton County" TN bought 100 acres in Overton Co from Jacob Beason for $385. In 1819 Benjamin IV decided to go to the new land opening up in IL, and with his bounty land grant settled in Madison Co, in what was to become the north central part of Sangamon Co on virgin land near Riverton. (Sangamon Co was formed out of the North West Territory in 1821.) On 11 July 1820 in Madison Co IL, Benjamin Cherry IV married Elizabeth Strickland, daughter of Joseph Strickland and Louise _____. They were both found in Madison Co in the 1820 census (the only other Cherry in IL in 1820 was Willis Cherry in White Co). After his father's death in 1830 he returned to TN to bring his mother and a number of slaves to San- gamon Co, where the slaves were given their freedom, but continued to live on the farm. Elizabeth was born 12 May 1799 in SC (1820 census says she was age 16-25; the 1830 Sangamon Co census had her age as 20-29 and showed four children in their home. The 1850 Sangamon Co IL census says she was born NC in 1800). From page 851 of the 1881 History Of Sangamon County, it states "Benjamin Cherry came from Tennessee. He was a good man and ultimately died a Christian" when the book was talking of early settlers of Clear Lake Twp. Their first son broke the tradition when he was named Wyatt for Elizabeth's brother. Benjamin Cherry IV deeded 60 acres of his farm to Wyatt Cherry, David Huckelberry and William Allen as wedding gifts. In 1865 they lived next door to 200 And NORTHEAST NORTH CAROLINA

their daughter Elmyra at Clear Lake, Sangamon Co. When Ben Cherry IV died on his farm on 9 Apr 1871 at Riverton, IL, he was buried in Springfield's Oak Hill Cemetery, a plot in 1980 owned by Erma Ciesler of Springfield. Ben’s gravestone says "BENJAMIN CHERRY, DIED. APRIL. 9. 1871, AGED. 85 YRS. 2 MS. 14DS." complete with the unnecessary periods shown here. Afterwards Elizabeth went to make her home with son Wyatt on the Hall homestead, where she died 22 July 1878. She was buried in the Hall Cemetery at Blue Mound, Macon Co IL. Ben's children were- 1. Thomas Wyatt Cherry, b 9 Nov 1821 2. Clemmon Cherry, b abt 1825 3. Martha Cherry, b 1826 4. dau Cherry, b abt 1828. She was overlooked in the 1830 census, but was in the 1840 census in the same age grouping as two other sisters: age 10 to 14; she was born 1826-1930. She was not named as a child of Ben and Elizabeth in the 1876 Early Settlers book, so had apparently died as a child in the 1840s. (68k) 5. Elmyra Cherry, b 20 Mar 1830 6. Benjamin Cherry V, b 1832 Clemmon Strickland was a brother of Elizabeth Strickland. Some early Sangamon Co Cherry marriages were: Stanford Ford - Eliza Cherry 12 Aug 1838; Stanford Cherry - Mrs Sally Welch 8 Dec 1846; Edward Ray - Effa Cherry 28 Feb 1870. The Benjamin Cherry who fought with General Jackson in the War of 1812 and was from TN lived in Franklin Co TN. He was born 18 August 1790 in Rowan Co NC, and died in Franklin Co TN on 23 May 1876. He was buried at Franklin Co. His dates were taken from his gravestone, which also states that this Benjamin was a Captain in the 3rd East Tennessee Militia, served in the Indian Wars, and in the War Of 1812. During the War of 1812, he temporarily went AWOL in Florida along with many other Tennesseeans in order to go home and get their crops in. After the harvest, they went down the Tennessee River to rejoin Jackson and fought in the Battle of New Orleans. (N,139,140,78i, ILq,68jmc) The following story is from Early Settlers Of Sangamon County, pages 197-198 (this is exactly as was in the original book, but with some column formatting slightly changed):

Benjamin Franklin Cherry [C1a8c1h2], son of Daniel Cherry and Sarah Turner, was born 2 June 1813 in Wilson Co TN, and died in August 1814. He was not with his family in the 1820 census of Wilson Co, and was not named as a child in the court minutes of Madison Co concerning the heirs of Ben's father Daniel. (125,57,69,114,23i)

Benjamin Franklin Cherry [C1a8c1a7], apparently a son of James J Cherry and an unknown mother, was born in 1817 in Rutherford Co TN. By 1840 he was living in Hardin Co, married and had children. Some of Ben’s Cherry cousins had also moved to Hardin Co. His wife was Lavinia _____, born in AL in 1824. Ben’s wife in the 1840 Hardin Co censes was a teenager, which agreed with her age given in the 1850 Hardin Co census. They were not found in Hardin Co after 1850. By 1850 they had four children, all born in TN- a. William H Cherry, b 1840 (9k) b. Elizabeth J Cherry, b 1843 c. Andrew J Cherry, b 1845 d. Lewis C Cherry, b 1850 (52,39j,9kmn)
