                                EDITOR'S NOTES
     I have ordered an item that I find very useful,  both as a family  resear-
cher  and  as  a person in the publishing business.  It is  FAMILY  PERIODICALS
compiled by Merle Ganier,  2108 Grace St.,  Fort Worth TX 76111.  It lists  all
family  publications  in  print as of 1983 and also genealogical  columns  that
appear  in  several newspapers.  The 1983 edition contained 23 pages that  were
done on a computer. It also notes whether it is a quarterly or a newsletter and
the cost of the item.  The cost is $4.00 and Texans should add 20 cents  tax.--
IT'S A VERY GOOD INVESTMENT AND I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT.
     I have confused many readers by using several names for myself.  I am  all
of  the  following:  "Robert Mike  Terry",  "Robert  M.  Terry",  "rmt",  "Mike
Terry","The Editor".  Not to be confused with Robert W. (Ward) Terry of Cincin-
nati,  Ohio,  who  writes  the great article "Covering The TERRY-TORY." I  have
always  been referred to as "Mike" Terry by my family and use the legal  signa-
ture of "Robert M.  Terry".  When filling out forms I am often called "Bob" and
"Terry"  and all of the various combinations that Robert Mike Terry might  pro-
duce. While growing up, I often had other problems as well. We lived in the Ft.
Cobb,  Oklahoma  farming community and received our telephone service [a modern
seven-party line] from this town. We received our mail from Binger, Oklahoma. I
attended Oney High School which was often confused with Olney,  Texas.  So they
changed the name to Albert,  Oklahoma. So one side of the street, which includes
the post office, is Albert and the other side of the street is called Oney. The
sign  leading to the crossroads which takes in the whole town is labeled Albert
(Oney).  So  you might say that I often shied away from filling out  forms  and
meeting new people if I didn't have too. Where is Oney? Oh, about 25 miles from
Anadarko.  Where  is Anadarko??--We lived about 65 miles South West of Oklahoma
City.--So much for me.
     I really appreciate those who are hanging in there.  We lost a few due  to
the cost increase but have received more new members.  In order to increase the
coverage and get quality we have to pay for it.  Although many of the items you
see in the TFH are donated by readers,  some of it has to be purchased. I order
updates  regularly on Terry marriages and other items that I think might be  of
general interest.  I try and buy Terry books as they are printed and will share
with  you what I have.  Some of these items cost much more than the cost of the
TFH itself.--Anyhow,  thanks for the kind words that I have received from  many
members and I have received several very positive comments.
     I  would  like to concentrate on New York,  Connecticut,  and Virginia  as
these  areas seemed to have spawned early TERRY families in the United  States.
It seems that much of the info in the TFH is from Southern States.  This is not
entirely planned, but much of the material I receive is related to these areas.
I also need to increase my data base for marriages,  wills,  deeds,  bible  re-
cords,  military  records,  etc.  for areas outside of the South.  I have given
priority  to areas outside the South and have printed almost every item that  I
have received. I will offer to reimburse members for xeroxing costs and postage
if you submit information from outside of the Southern Region.  If the cost  is
is  more than $5.00 let me know before you incurr the cost.  Also let  me  know
what the source of the information is so I can reference it in the Terry Family
Historian.  Sometimes  I have to write to an editor or publisher to get permis-
sion to print it in the TFH.  I will also trade items in the TFH if you want to
barter.
     Several  members whose names have been published in the TERRY FAMILY  HIS-
TORIAN  are  not active researchers and have noted the  same.  If  you  receive
inquiries, please pass them on to the Editor and I will correspond with them. I
am, as always, behind in my correspondence.
     I sometimes print articles submitted by others; I do not vouch for what is
in them.  Nor am I trying to discount research accomplished by others.  I  will
certainly  print  any  corrections that come to my attention.  If you  wish  to
address anything in an article, please feel free to do so.
     The  Editor  is still working on the 1900 Census for Texas and I  hope  to
have it ready for printing by this Spring. If you have specific questions about
anyone  in Texas at this time,  please write.  If you can give any  identifying
information  on TERRY FAMILIES in Texas ca.  1900 or in Arkansas ca.  1880,  it
will be added to the information as notations.  If you can identify any TERRY's
in any marriage listings this will also be added as notations.  I would welcome
any  census dated including Terry families,  particularly that which is  county
wide or has notations with it.
                              HERE'S HOPING YOU HAVE A TERRY-FYING 1984

                            COVERING THE TERRY-TORY
                                      by
                                Robert W. Terry
                             4900 Springdale Road
                              Cincinnati OH 45239
     Our  Terry  surname has not produced any Presidents of the United  States,
nor  has it produced international or national leaders who would make the  name
widely  known.  We Terry descendants cannot compete with the Cabots or  Lodges,
the Kennedys or Roosevelts, the Vanderbilts, Gettys, or Hearsts.
     However,  a  few  of the surname achieved prominence in  their  respective
fields  attract  the interest of persons like myself,  who get  sidetracked  in
history  while pursuing genealogical research.  I suspect that some of you rea-
ders are guilty of the same failing, if, indeed, it is a failing.
     The  following are some of the Terrys who have stimulated my  interest  in
their lives and times,  although there appears to be no genealogical connection
to my particular tribe:
     NATHANIEL TERRY,  member of the House of Burgesses of Virginia for Halifax
County  from  1768-1775  and a member of the Williamsburg (Va.)  Convention  of
1776.  I suspect that he heard Patrick Henry's impassioned "Give Me Liberty  or
Death"  remarks  and took part in the arguments leading to the  Declaration  of
Independence.
    What  really captured my attention was the statement in a 1917  publication
of  the Kentucky Society of Colonial Wars that Nathaniel presided "at the  last
court  held under the crown and the first held under the Commonwealth in 1776."
I  try  to picture the elderly gentleman,  hiding his personal  feelings  while
serving as an impartial presiding officer over the fateful discussions.
     WILLIAM TERRY, known to sports fans as "Memphis Bill," the former baseball
player and manager of the New York Giants, may be the one person whose exploits
publicized   the surname all over the nation.   Bill Terry fell into  the  same
category as the immortal Babe Ruth,  a pitcher who was switched to the everyday
lineup  because he could hit.  I discovered him with the help of my father,  an
avid baseball fan, when Bill Terry was pitching for the Toledo (Ohio) Mud Hens.
Memory  says that after he was called up by the Giants and installed  at  first
base, he hit better than .400 at least one season.
     DR.  LUTHER TERRY,  former head of the American Medical Association.  Just
the  other  day,  I learned that it is 20 years since he warned that  cigarette
smoking  is  dangerous to one's health,  and that he is disappointed  that  the
American public generally has ignored his advice.
     WILLIAM  AND WILLIAM R.  TERRY,  contemporary officers in the  Confederate
Army  who both rose to the rank of general.  One of them served in  the  U.  S.
Congress  after the war and was Grand Master of the Masonic Lodge in  Virginia;
the  other became superintendent of the Virginia Penitentiary.
     ELI  TERRY,  the Connecticut clockmaker who learned the trade from  Thomas
Harland, a clockmaker in London before he migrated to New England. Eli Terry in
1809  formed a company with Silas Hoadly and another man,  Seth  Thomas,  whose
name still is perpetuated in American-made clocks.   I recall mixed emotions at
an antique show at a nearby mall,  when I saw a genuine Eli Terry mantel clock,
still in perfect running condition. What irritated me was that someone, possib-
ly  the  dealer,   had  pasted a decal of a 50-STAR  FLAG on  the  glass  case.
Sources  say that Eli enlisted the aid of his brother,  his  three  sons,  four
nephews  and  several  grandchildren in the production line.  The last  of  the
     There  are other Terrys of local and regional prominence,  of course.   In
"Park  and  Allied Families of Kentucky" I found mention  of  James  Terry,  an
attorney in Edgefield,  S.  C.,  whose obituary was written by Henry Clay.  The
wife of James Terry was the former Mary Anne Hutchenson,  daughter of a wealthy
Augusta,  Ga.  family,  who it was said, had as her bodyguard an African prince
who wore a ring in his nose.
     I couldn't find my notation of a Terry in the federal government  credited
with  some  innovations in postage stamps.  Neither could I find the Terry  who
invented  and patented a stretcher for use by medical,  hospital and  emergency
aid personnel, but I recall them.
     My  curiosity also has been stimulated by the names of Fernando  Belaunde-
Terry,  president  of Peru in South America;  the Spanish firm of Fernando  Ade
Terry,  Ltd., makers of brandy and fine wines (I have samples); the Terry candy
makers of York, England, and countless others.
     And some day I would like to determine that "terry cloth" in the  diction-
ary  might  be  associated  with the numerous Terrys who were  members  of  the
weavers' guild in London in the 17th century.
                                   * * * * *
     This editor,  has always been intrigued by the Terry Families in  Lawrence
County, Alabama since I published the account of the TERRYS THICKER THAN COTTON
IN LAWRENCE COUNTY [See June 1983 TFH,  pp.  93-95.] I have since received info
from Spurgeon D. Terry Jr. of 4002 Hamilton St., Hyattsville MD 20781 who wrote
the following:
                           RE: TERRY FAMILY REUNIONS
     There  is in Lawrence County Alabama a "United Terry's  Club",  Courtland,
Alabama.  The Club meets each Labor Day at a site located between Courtland and
Moulton  on  property owned by one of the Terry's.  The 1983-1984 President  is
Clyde  Terry  and the secretary is Mable Terry.  The Annual membership  fee  is
$1.00;  a card is sent to each member.  Write:  Redus Terry,  P.  O.  Box  457,
Moulton AL 35650.
     This reunion is an all-day picnic.  Although I have never yet attended,  I
plan  to  next year.  A first cousin of mine did attend one  year.  Members  of
Congress and U.  S.  Senators often attend,  I am told from newspaper accounts.
(Lawrence  County is located in the northwestern part of Alabama,  near  Muscle
Shoals,  and close to the Tennessee border.) A publication,  TAP ROOTS, is pub-
lished which covers that NE Alabama area, but I have not yet subscribed.
     The  UNITED TERRY CLUB welcomes members;  why don't you join also?  I have
written  to some of my contacts there and suggested that they subscribe to  the
TFH.
     I  recently purchased from the National Archives a very handy  and  useful
book  (304  pages  "chock" full of information useful to  genealogical  resear-
chers).  It is GUIDE TO GENEALOGICAL RESEARCH IN THE NATIONAL ARCHIVES.  I paid
$17.50 for the paper-back.  The hard cover costs a few $ more ($21.00).  It was
published  by the National Archives Trust Fund Board in 1983 and  is  available
from Guide,  National Archives,  Box 124, Washington DC 20408. Checks should be
made payable to: National Archives Trust Fund Board. (Do not send cash.)

                            SNAFU IN ENID, OKLAHOMA
     This is part of a letter from Ray Ward, Rt 3, Box 63, Gatesville TX 76528.
I thought it was interesting.
     During W.  W.  II I was stationed at the Enid A.  F. Base for basic flight
training.  Aside from the time in combat I came about as near to getting killed
as I ever did while I was flying on a Night Cross - Country from Enid. It was a
royal SNAFU [military talk for situation normal all fouled up] from the start--
the  crisis came when I was letting down to 500 feet [the altitude at which  we
flew over approach downwind & base legs.] I had forgotten that on cross country
our  altimeters were set at atmospheric pressure so that when the plane was  on
the  ground,  the  altimeter would show the field elevation not "0" as we  were
accustomed  to regular training landings.  As a result,  I nearly flew  into  a
windmill and farmhouse out NW of the base. Enid was a near miss.
     I am interested in getting a personal computer for genealogy, word proces-
sing,  and  a couple of sets of books.  Can you tell me the kind you got & why.
Would you do differently if you had it to do over?
     [Note from the Editor:  I will send you a copy of my answer to Mr. Ward if
you are looking at computers.]

                           WILLIAM MORRIS 1755-1830
     William Morris,  third son of Thomas Morris, was born on October 30, 1755,
in Halifax County,  Virginia.  As a young person, he moved with his family from
Virginia to South Carolina. They settled on Turkey Creek.
     Here,  in about 1777,  he married "Sary" Terry, daughter of Stephen Terry,
who  owned  a land grant of 200 acres in Chester  County,  S.  C.  Stephen  had
acquired this tract of land on July 10,  1776,  and from it his son conveyed 54
1/4 acres to William Morris on January 23,  1793.  William later sold the tract
to Thomas Stokes, and apparently at this time moved to Greenville County, S. C.
Later, he moved to Abbeville, S. C.
     In  1777,  at the age of 22,  William joined Capt.  Robert  Porter's  Co.,
Tryon,  N.  C.,  in the Continental Army. Among other engagements, his regiment
fought in the Seige of Charleston.
     For  at least 4 years William must have followed the excitement of the war
and sympathized with the efforts of the colonists to resist the English armies.
     The Boston Tea Party on December 16, 1773, Paul Revere's thrilling ride in
1775,  and  the Battle of Lexington had developed a united war effort,  and  on
June 14, 1776, when Congress adopted the Stars and Stripes a the national flag,
the citizens were ready for the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776.
     William's military record is taken from Ga.  Pension Record, p. 18; Roster
of Rev.  Soldiers by L. L. Knight, pp. 314-443; Saunders and Knight's Roster of
Ga. Probate Land Lottery, Vol. 16, p. 423.
     This data has been accepted by the D.  A.  R.  society and several descen-
dants of William have joined the D. A. R.'s and the S. A. R.'s.
     In 1822,  William moved to DeKalb County with his son John. Here he became
a  leading citizen.  He was one of the first Commissioners appointed to  govern
Decatur.
     No mention is made of his wife,  "Sary", after he left South Carolina. She
would  have been 65 years old and may have died in South  Carolina.  His  three
youngest children, Benj., Caty, and Rhody, were 27, 25, and 23 years old and it
is assumed that they were married and remained in South Carolina.
     If  William left a will,  which would have named his survivors,  it  would
have been recorded in the DeKalb County Courthouse. This burned in 1842 and the
fire destroyed many of the documents.
     William  died  in  1830.  He lived to see his new county  develop  into  a
community of prospering farms, his family establish a Methodist Church, and his
native America become a free and independent nation.
     He  is buried in Cedar Grove Cemetery,  where his grave was marked by  the
D.A.R.
     William Morris and his wife "Sary" had the following children. Their names
and dates of birth were taken from the family Bible owned by Gordon Morris:
William Morris (father)       b. Oct. 30 1755     d. 1830
"Sary" Morris (mother)        b. July 22, 1757
Elizabeth                     b. March 26, 1779
--------                      b. March  8, 1781
John                          b. May 15, 1783
William Jr.                   b. July 9, 1787
Priselah                      b. April 13, 1789
Sarah                         b. Dec. 24, 1790
Garrett                       b. March 31, 1792
Benjamin                      b. Jan. 21, 1795
Caty                          b. May 28, 1797
Rhody                         b. Sept. 23, 1799
     [Editor's Notes: This account was originally written by Mrs. E. H. LeVert,
Jr.  and  was contained in a letter to Mrs.  A.  B.  Smith of Jonesboro GA from
McClure M.  Reynolds of Decatur GA.  The letter was written in 1978.  The notes
and letters were sent to me by Marty Morris, ARAMCO, Box 10501, Dhahran, Saudia
Arabia.  Sarah Terry is the sister of John W. Terry of Chester SC. This is also
the direct line of Mr.  William S.  Morris, 2580 Utah St., Napa CA 94558. There
are a few errors in the account.  One is the date on Stephen Terry's land which
was  about 1766 not 1776.  I was particularly interested because we have  never
been able to find Revolutionary records for John W.  Terry  1752-1834.  Perhaps
this might suggest some leads. Cedar Grove Cemetery is in Conley, DeKalb County
GA.]
                                   * * * * *
Notes from Ethel McGill of Paris, TX who is researching the Rogers surname.
     The only TERRY surname listed in the 1870 census for Lamar Co. TX was:
Elizabeth TERRY     age 61    b. TN
P. J.               age 21    b. AR
     I failed to write down whether P. J. was male or female.
     ...Then in the 1880 Census of Lamar Co. TX I found only one Terry listed:
Moses Terry         45        farmer    AL   NC   NC
Mary                40        wife      AL   AL   AL
Lizzie              11                  LA
Ella                 9                  "
Anna                 7                  TX
John G.              5                  TX
Jinnie               3                  TX
Daughter           8/12 Sept.           TX
     This  could not have been Moses Green Berry Hill Terry that married Martha
M.  Rogers (my great-Aunt) as she died Sept.  28,  1880 in [Prescott City]  AR.
Some  of  the  childrens  names are the same (not all) and  the  birthdays  are
different. Also, on the 1880 Census I found that Sol Bennett 48 b. AL (SC - GA)
was  living  with his brother-in-law,  John Black,  none of his  children  were
listed.
     I found James E.  Watson on the 1880 Census.  I believe this is your James
Eli Watson [who m. in Union Co. AR Mary Elizabeth Terry].
James E. Watson          45   farmer    MS   KY   NC
Mary E.                  45             GA   SC   SC
James                    18             AR
Willie                   15             "
Sarah                    13             "
George                   10             "
Luther                    4             TX
     [Note: The Editor would like to contact descendants of this family.]

     Letter  from  Cordie (Terry) Folsom to Robert M.  Terry dated  October  2,
1983. The notations in brackets are the Editor's and certainly not the mistakes
of "cousin" Cordie.
Dear Cousin:
     Hugh McClure Terry gave me the picture when I was a young girl.  I'm quite
sure the writing on the back was his. We always called him Uncle Mac.
     After  my mother [Ada Marcum] died when I was 12 yrs,  old,  I lived  with
Uncle  Sam  (his son) and Aunt Cora [Marcum] Terry until I married  at  18.  We
lived a short distance apart and I went to Uncle Mac's to milk the cow for milk
for both families.
     I  wrote  you once that I blacked out one time when I went over  to  milk,
Uncle Mac got to me without his crutches,  but after I was alright, he couldn't
take a step without them. Strange eh?
     Uncle  Sam  [Terry] had a cotton gin over by Uncle  Mac's.  I  kept  books
there. His brother Ed [Terry], had the telephone office and I worked there when
he was out. I also played the piano at our church.
     Uncle  Sam had the first automobile in our little town [Milton or  Blossom
TX, I am not sure?] and I drove it at 16 years old, a 1911 model Rio.
     I knew so much more about Uncle Mac than I did about my grandfather [Moses
Green Berry Hill Terry.] I really didn't know where he died.  I knew his second
wife and her son, Bob Phillips. I would like a print of him if you have one.
     I still haven't found my father and mother's picture,  but will send it to
you if I ever find it.
     I  hope  you can read this scribbling.  I was supposed to have surgery  on
both  hands.  Had  it on the left without success,  so I won't have it  on  the
right.  I can barely do anything with them. But they don't keep me from playing
games and dancing at 89 next month.
                                                  Yours Truly
                                                  Cordie Folsom
     [Editor's  Note:  Cordie Terry Folsom is the daughter of Rufus Leon  "Lee"
Terry and Ada Marcum.  Her grandfather is Moses Green Berry Hill Terry who is a
grandson of Major Stephen Terry of Atlanta.  The Uncle Mac she speaks of is the
Editor's great-great grandfather.  His picture is on the cover of the September
1982 issue of the TFH. The writing on the back of her picture is as follows and
is the handwriting of Hugh McClure Terry. The information indicates the picture
was taken ca. 1915.]

          ROBERSON WILLIAM TERRY OF CAMPBELL COUNTY GEORGIA & FAMILY
                               by Nancy Cornell
JOHN TERRY AND ANTHA WRIGHT
     John and Antha Terry were both born in South Carolina. John was born about
1799,  and Antha was born in 1805.  They were married in South Carolina in 1822
according to the R.  W.  Terry Bible.  Their three eldest children were born in
South Carolina.  Louisa was born in 1824;  Roberson was born 26 September 1825;
Nancy was born in 1829 (Reference: Terry Bible and census records).
     Sometime after Nancy's birth,  they moved to Coweta  County,  Georgia,  in
time  to be listed on the 1830 Coweta County census.  Their fourth child,  John
W.,  was  born  in Georgia in 1830.  The John Terry listed in the  1830  Coweta
census also had a white woman between the ages of 70 and 80 living with him.
     By 1840,  John Terry was living in Campbell County,  Georgia.  All of  his
children  were  born  by  then and the elderly woman was no  longer  with  him.
According  to the 1850,  1860 and 1870 Campbell census records,  John and Antha
lived in Campbell for the remainder of their lives. The tax digests of Campbell
show  they  owned 8 slaves and were property owners in both Campbell  and  Cobb
counties.  John Terry died on 20 January 1870,  and his wife died 24  September
1875, according to the Terry Bible. It is not known where they are buried.
ROBERSON WILLIAM TERRY
     Roberson  Terry  was  born in South Carolina on 26 September  1825  (Terry
Bible).  He married his first wife,  Eliza Abercrombie,  on 28 October 1847  in
Campbell  County,  Georgia (Campbell Co.  Marriage Book B,  p.  84).  They were
blessed  with six children.  Eliza died on 26 June 1860,  five days  after  the
birth of twins. The twins also died in that year (Terry Bible).
     Roberson's  second wife was Mary Louisa Bomar,  daughter of Armstead Bomar
of Campbell County. They were married on 15 January 1863 (Campbell Co. Marriage
Book B, p. 408). Roberson Wm. and Mary Louisa had eleven children. The house in
which they lived was located on the east side of Hall Road off Highway 92, west
of Fairburn, Georgia (Campbell County, now Fulton County). It burned in 1982.
     According  to my grandmother,  Callie Terry Jones,  Roberson  (her  grand-
father) was a shoemaker. He owned a store which also housed the Post Office for
the  vicinity.  She says he would often stop travelers in the road to find  out
the latest news.
     Roberson  enlisted as a 3rd Lieutenant in Company B,  7th Regiment Georgia
State Guards on 4 August 1863.  This company was organized by Captain Robert J.
Tuggle in August,  1863,  for local defense.  It was organized for a six  month
period of service, and was disbanded on February 4, 1864. R. W. Terry is listed
as "present" on Company Muster Rolls from 4 August 1863 through December, 1863.
The  last muster roll,  dated February 4,  1864,  states he was absent on  sick
furlough  which  had been extended.  My grandmother Jones says he was  crippled
with arthritis, which may explain his leave of absence.
     Roberson William Terry died on 30 September 1893.  His wife,  Mary (b.  28
Dec.  1841) died 4 November 1922.  They are buried in the Mount Vernon  Baptist
Church Cemetery on Highway 92, west of Fairburn, Georgia.

ADDITIONAL NOTES GLEANED FROM FAMILY GATHERINGS
     When  the Terry clan gets together,  it is difficult to keep track of  all
the  many  stories being told at the same time.  Sitting in a circle around  my
grandmother's dining table (Callie Terry Jones),  one member tells a  childhood
tale  while another is talking about an entirely different story.  Most of  the
stories do not have beginnings or endings,  but vividly paint a picture of life
as it was eighty-plus years ago.
     Callie's  father,  John Irvin Terry (son of R.  W.  & Mary Terry),  was  a
farmer,  a fiddler, and a teacher. He taught school at Enon in Campbell County,
and  lived near Mount Vernon Church.  His father and his grandfather had  lived
there  before him,  as had the Jones,  Dorris,  McClures and many other pioneer
families  of that area.  John played the fiddle for square dances when all  the
families gathered for quilting and corn huskin' and dancing.
     John's  children went to school in the one room school house.  When  asked
what  education was required of the teachers or students,  Callie's reply  was,
"not  much.  In fact,  the children never even knew what grade they  were  in."
Callie's brother,  Watson commented,  "the only way to get out of school was to
move!"  The teacher taught the children in small groups according to size,  age
or ability.  Those not being helped at the moment were supposed to be studying;
however,  every time a horse or a wagon passed by,  they all ran to the door to
see who it was.  Callie says the wagons went by fairly slow,  so you had plenty
of time to decide if you knew them.  In fact,  if Grandpa Roberson Terry didn't
know a traveler, he got out in the middle of the road to stop them and find out
who they were.  Travelers were so important in those days,  often bringing news
the settlement had no other way of hearing;  and many homes,  such as  Roberson
Terry's,  had  an  extra room for travelers which was usually called the  prea-
cher's room.  John I.  Terry (b. 13 October 1866) married Lanie Tucker in Camp-
bell County,  Georgia on 24 December 1891.  They moved to Commerce, Texas, when
Callie  was  three weeks old (1894) where they lived near  John's  half-sister,
Nancy Antha (Darnell), for about two years. They moved back to Campbell County,
Georgia,  near  Mount Vernon where they lived for the next 24 years.  In  1920,
after  Callie  married,  John  took his wife and remaining children  to  Oneca,
Florida.  He  invested all he had in land and lost it during the depression  of
the 1930's.  John and Lanie lived in Florida for the rest of their  lives,  and
many  of their descendants continue to reside there.  John died on the 30th  of
October,  1945; and his wife died on July 26, 1960. They are both buried in the
Mount Vernon Baptist Church Cemetery, near Fairburn, Georgia.
R. W. TERRY BIBLE
     The R.  W.  Terry Bible was destroyed in the spring of 1979,  and the only
known  copies  of the marriage,  birth and death pages were those  made  by  my
mother,  Mrs.  L.  E. Jones in 1977. I have had copies made and notarized which
were  placed in the Georgia Archives.  The publication date of the Bible is not
known, because copies of the title page were not made. - Nancy Jones Cornell.

The  former  material  was  taken from Will probated 17 Jun  1872  from  Hawkey
Heritage Vol. 5, # 1, January, 1970, page 31.
     My great-grandmother Susan D.  Terry was born in Niles City,  Michigan  in
1852.  Her  Father was Elmer Terry.  Sometime in the early 1860's  Elmer  Terry
moved  his family to Northern Missouri.  I believe his occupation was that of a
lay minister.  Because of his Baptist and/or Methodist inclinations he was  run
out of Missouri into Iowa. Susan Deborah Terry married William Wesley Blacketer
on Jan.  30,  1877 in Winterset,  Iowa.  In 1888 she moved with her husband and
family to Dakota County, Nebraska.
     Her sister Electa married a man Mr.  Ambler. She later owned a silver mine
in  Colorado.  Her  sister Eliza Ann married a man by the name  of  Jones.  Her
brother,  William  E.  Terry lived on a farm near Winterset.  Susan D.  had two
nephews  Albert and Ben.  Terry who lived in or around Dakota  City,  Nebraska.
Susan D. Terry and Wm. W. Blacketer's children were: Lillie, Elizabeth, Albert,
Hal, William, Emma, John W., Julia, Ida and Clara.
The following was also sent to me by Mrs.  Peters,  but she indicated it is not
her family.  Ref:  Biographical History  Crawford,  Ida and Sac Counties, Iowa.

                                  W. E. TERRY
     W.  E.  TERRY,  of  the firm of W.  E.  Terry & Co.,  general merchants at
Charter Oak,  Iowa,  is one of the enterprising young business men of the town,
and  as  such is entitled to some personal mention in the history  of  Crawford
county.
     W. E. Terry was born in Boonesborough Boone county, Iowa, August 15, 1869,
son of Charles and Melissa (Richards) Terry. After the death of his father, his
mother married Charles Reiher,  and is now a resident of Dunlap, Iowa. Until he
was  twelve years old Mr.  Terry lived in his native town,  and from that  time
until  1887 made his home in Dunlap.  In 1887 he went to Omaha,  where  he  was
employed  as clerk in a grocery establishment one year.  The following year  he
came  to  Charter  Oak  and took a position as clerk in the  Charter  Oak  post
office,  which he held until the spring of 1889,  under W. W. Cushman, and five
months  longer  under J.  J.  McWilliams.  In the fall of 1889  he  engaged  in
business with R.  W.  Bamford,  under the firm name of W.  E. Terry & Co., this
firm being dissolved in January,  1890, by Mr. Terry disposing of his interest.
In March,  1890, he formed a partnership with W. W. Cushman, under the style of
W.  W.  Cushman & Co.  This relation,  however,  lasted only a short time,  Mr.
Cushman  retiring October 22,  1890.  The firm then became Terry,  Rethlefren &
Co., and continued as such until June 1, 1892, when the present association was
formed, C. M. Leaming, of Mapleton, being the company.
     This firm carries a complete line of drygoods, groceries, boots and shoes,
hats  and caps,  queensware,  etc.,  the estimated value of their  stock  being
&6,000 and their annual sales amounting to $27,000.
     Mr.  Terry takes an active interest in the welfare of his town and county,
and,  politically,  affiliates with the Democratic party. He is a member of the
I.O.O.F., No. 105, and Charter Oak Encmapment, No. 142.
     He was married June 1,  1891,  to Miss Frances Beck,  daughter of F. Beck.
She was born in Camanche, Iowa, in 1872. They have one son.

I am not a genealogy researcher and have only been working on my family history
(along  with my 84 year old sister) for several years.  But now I  am  retired,
have one husband,  2 sons,  4 grandchildren and 3 and 7/8's great-grandchildren
so I thought it time to prepare a legacy for them. Besides its a lot of fun and
maybe I can help some one else. Keep up the good work.

found  in Livingston County.  There are two broken monuments and five  unmarked
graves in the Rutter Cemetary where Sarah is buried.
Children of Sarah Terry & John L. Coleman:
Mary A. Coleman b. 28 Nov 1819 d. 27 mar 1868 m. J. O. Rutter
*R.  W. Coleman b. 19 Jun 1822 d. 14 Nov 1871. Martha A. Wife of R. W. b. 19 Mar
1826 d.  21 Dec 1895. Children: Wm. Isaac b. 31 Oct 1850 d. 18 Apr 1859; Mattie
Ann b.  12 Mr 1861 aged 1 yr 8 mo 9 days;  Sarah Elizabeth b. 28 Aug 1848 d. 29
Sep 1875.
     *This is a conclusion based on the fact that R.  W. Coleman and family are
buried  in  Ross Cemetary No.  1 next to the first wife and daughter  of  Sarah
Terry's son by Robert Cochran.  There may well be other children of Sarah Terry
and John L. Coleman.
Children of Sarah Terry and Robert Cochran:
     John Thomas Cochran b.  Salem,  KY 14 Aug 1834 d.  20 Jun 1904 m. (1) 1857
Sarah Jane Ross m. (2) 19 Sep 1860 Nancy Rebecca Hoxley.
Assuming my conclusion about R. W. Coleman to be correct, the granddaughters of
Sarah  Terry (one the daughter of R.  W.  Coleman and one the daughter of  John
Thomas Cochran) married brothers.  Each granddaughter was named Sarah Elizabeth
and  they are buried together with their husbands and children in Ross Cemetary
No.  1 (on Puryer Road in the Old Vicksburg Community,  Livingston County, KY):

life  for himself as a farmer,  and purchased land near Smithland,  on which he

land,  engaged in the mercantile business,  which he continued until 1877, when
he  lost  all  his possessions by fire.  He next engaged  in  carpentering  and
blacksmithing,  at  which  trades he worked two years,  and then moved  to  the
country,  and  farmed  until 1880.  In the latter year he moved  to  Crittenden
Springs,  Crittenden County,  and engaged in the hotel business at that resort;
he  ran the hotel for three years when he again lost all his property by  fire.
He  moved  to  Marion in the fall of 1883,  and took charge of  the  Crittenden
House,  of which he is still the proprietor.  Mr. Cochran was married in Febru-
ary,  1857,  to  Sarah  Ross,  daughter of James and Becky Ross  of  Livingston
County. To this marriage were born two children, Mary and Sarah (wife of Andrew
Dunlapp).  Mrs. Cochran died January 8, 1860, and September 19, 1860, Mr. Coch-
ran  married Nannie Moxley,  a daughter of Dr.  S.  D.  and Nannie  Moxley,  of
Franklin County,  Ky.  The following children were born to the second marriage:
Thomas H.,  Dora,  Anna,  George,  John, William, Hely and Babb (deceased). Mr.

and wife belong to the Methodist Episcopal Church.
