Hello Mike, Today I learned that the father of Rosemond Terry (m. Benjamin Henry) was Thomas Terry of Pittsylvania County, VA. This information is contained in an Indenture dated 19 December 1816 which states briefly "This indenture made this 19th day of December 1816 between Thomas Terry, Walker Terry, Benjamin Henry and Rosa Henry his wife all of whom are legatees of the late Thos Terry dec'd of Pittsylvania County and State of Virginia of the first part and ?????Smith of Pittsylvania County and State of Virginia on the other part. Witness whereas (?Champess) Terry, Nathaniel Terry, Joseph Terry, Susannah Beasley, (?Solomon) Dalton and his wife Mary Dalton ..." Rosemon Terry was born c. 1778 per 1850 census. Married Benjamin Henry 1812. Died 1850-1860, probably 1850-1853. Is the Thomas Terry mentioned above the same Thomas Terry Son of Benjamin Terry/Elizabeth Parker. Would appreciate any help.

I'm descended from Judah Terry who married Thomas Wells Woods and was apparently the daughter of John Terry and Sarah Gooch not Sarah Moore of Jackson County, Tennessee.I've been reading the monumental eight volume biography of George Washington by Douglas Freeman, and in volume three, on page 311, there is some mention of a Moses Terry in Pittsylvania County, Virginia. It says that he was a suspect in the great Virginia counterfeiting scandal of early 1773. He "showed a disposition to confess and to become the King's witness." There is a footnote on the page referring to the Virginia Gazette of 25 Feb and 4 Mar 1773. Just thought I'd pass along an interesting tidbit.
