General Notes: Husband - John Berry

---

After marriage he resided for seventeen years on the Watson farm in Cecil township, Washington County, PA; then moved to and lived in Canonsburg for three years, after which he returned to Cecil township, remaining three years. He then, in 1853, came to North Strabane township, having purchased the “Am­sterdam” farm from the Pees brothers, where he passed the remainder of his life, with the excep­tion of five years he lived in the borough of Wash­ington. During the earlier period of his life he was a member of the Associate Reformed Church of Robinson's Run, then of Canonsburg, afterward joining the United Presbyterian Church, in which he was a member of the Session fifteen years, and after coming to North Strabane township he con­nected himself with the U. P. Church at Pigeon Creek. In his political preferences he was first a Whig, then a Republican with strong Abolition sentiments, and he held various offices of trust in his township.
