EDITOR'S NOTES
The Beginning
The TFH was a big idea with a small beginning as I noted
in the first few issues. It began as a chain letter which
circulated between eight present TFH members who were
researching Major Stephen Terry of Atlanta. I became
frustrated at the length of time it took the letter to get
back and also because it took so long for my queries to come
out in the `Roots Cellar' of the Genealogical Helper. [I
still take the GH as it is a necessity if you are serious
about publishing or researching.]
We are beginning the fourth year of the Terry Family
Historian and I think we have made some progress. I say we,
because I certainly could not have begun to do all of this
TERRY research single-handed. I believe we could safely say
we have the largest concentration of Terry data in the U.S.
I wore out one typewriter and outgrew the computer that
I had in the third year and just purchased one with more
memory to handle the data I have been receiving. I still have
four file drawers full of bits and scraps of paper and a
growing inventory of TERRY publications. Some time ago I
read a pamphlet by a genealogist who discouraged the use of
computers because 'nobody wanted to sit around the Christmas
tree with the family and look at computer print outs'. We do
have some listings such as these and they do have their place
in our research efforts; however, I also love to read those
humorous stories like Bob Terry's continuing article
"Covering the Terry-Tory". I always know it is forthcoming
and can't wait to see the next one. [If I only had his gift
for writing.]
(1)
The Goals
The goals I set originally were to be entertaining and
also to provide documentation for what was printed. I have
always been in awe of Mrs. Bushnell's scholarly style and
was influenced greatly by her Terry Records of Virginia. I
also am not ashamed to say I modeled the TFH after the
Arkansas Family Historian which is an old genealogical
publication and I always found it quite entertaining.
[Genealogical Publications come and go rather frequently.]
In later years I have tried to appeal to those Terry
researchers outside of the South to share their research with
us but have not been as successful as I would like. [I have
not given up!] There is a small core of members who actually
do the library and courthouse research required. Others, not
unlike my own parents, are more passively interested and are
enjoy reading the history of the different Terry Clans. We
need both kinds of subscribers to make the publication
successful, but the editor would like to see an increase in
the "hard core" researchers.
I also wanted the TFH to be a place where Terry
researchers could meet, in a fashion, and discuss what they
have done and ask questions of others. I am so glad I asked
questions of the senior members of the family, because some
of them are no longer with us.--That information would have
been lost. Even though I have increased the original price to
cover costs, I think you can agree that the TFH is the best
buy for the bucks. [You have a money back guarantee; and if
not satisfied I will return your money plus postage for the
return of the article in question.] I have been less than
pleased with research paid for and done by other researchers
on several occasions myself and vowed to give the members a
publication they could relate to and feel that it was
worthwhile. [I have had one subscription returned in three
years so I guess the record speaks for itself.]
Problems & Advice
At the present time, we have about 200 members. I should
note that I do the researching, ordering, typing, advertising
and mailing chores myself. And this is just my "part time"
duties. I also have family duties and a "full time job." [I
should note that Emma helped me lick stamps on the recent
postcard mail-outs--she's 4 going on 5. This explains why
some of the stamps were upside down and folded over the back
of the card. Good help is hard to find!]
While I have the paid membership, I also have questions
from others about their research problems and am now getting
(2)
questions about computers and genealogy as well. My time is
getting to be very limited and I cannot begin to answer the
mail in a timely fashion. I am trying to develop a system
that will at least print out names and addresses of those who
have made inquiries about your particular Terry Clan. The
bottom line is--I will try and get your questions in the TFH
Query section and will try and answer eventually. When I get
enough information to make an article that might help several
people, I usually make a short out of it. If I am short on
articles, I print what I have about my own family and this
explains some of the South Carolina TERRY information.
However, I do not want to give the impression that our
publication is only for Southerners. My personal interest
lies there as well as a majority of the members it seems.
My advice is to do your homework first. Get the census
information, talk to senior Terry's relatives, go to the
court house or library and copy what there is on TERRY's.
Then share it with the membership in the TFH.
The Ahnentafel charts in the Query section which are
preceded by "Terry Line of ...." will get you more responses
I can assure you. But you need dates and places, and par-
ticularly counties.
Future plans & Possible Solutions
If you would like to be a corresponding secretary for
one of the Terry Clans please let me know. I would like to
farm out some of the correspondence.
Should you want to write a regular feature on your
particular family, please call or write. If you don't like
writing please line up one of the senior members of family
and do a tape recording and send that. If you still use a pen
and pencil I will accept this as well.
If you have a computer, I notice your mailing labels and
letters with the little dots, send a disk with your informa-
tion and I'll return it. I have access to a machine to read
most CPM formats and I work at a Computer store and have
access to Big Blue formats and Fruit type computers.
If you have a telephone modem hooked to your computer
I plan to put all of the Terry data on line for TFH members.
The program should be able to run unattended when I get all
of the equipment.--Another wonder of the Computer Age. I will
have to continue charging for paper copies and will gladly
continue to provide what I have. However, I should note I am
in the process of changing my text files to another disk
format.

I'm now getting off of my soapbox and returning to the
typing mode and the TFH for March 1985.

JASPER TERRY OF MONTGOMERY CO. VIRGINIA
Notes submitted by Mrs. Valerie Whitlow Terry
Rt. 3, Box 154, Princeton WV 24740
I was quite pleased to see my Terry lineage published in
the December 1984 issue of the Terry Family Historian. Thanks
also for your editor's note. However, I was aware of the
Jasper Terry will in Montgomery County, Virginia. The problem
there is that the wife mentioned is not the mother of the
children;, but a widow Jasper married sometime after their
births. Jasper was married three or possibly four times and
it hasn't been proven which wife or wives were the mothers to
the children. Maybe someone else has some information that
will bear on this, but so far everyone I have contacted seems
to be unsure. I am enclosing a copy of the Jasper Terry will,
transcribed to the best of my ability from my copy. You will
notice that the third daughter mentioned is not Karen
Happuck, but Karon Happuck Rose. She was married to Joseph
Rose 21 Dec 1813 in Montgomery County, VA. The unusual first
name, Karonhappuch, is probably what caused the confusion.
Jasper named his three daughters after Job's three daughters
in the Bible (see Job 42:14). I obtained much of this
information from Mrs. Jean Deweese Cordts, so I'm not sure
exactly how the mix-up came about on the name of Karonhappuch
Rose. This may or may not be of help, but I thought you'd
want to keep your records straight.

COVERING THE TERRY-TORY
By
Robert W. Terry
4900 Springdale Rd., Cincinnati OH 45247
Most of us go through life "unsung", and that includes
Terrys.
Yet, I have evidence that a composer once wrote a song
and dedicated it to Captain Robert W. Terry, pilot and later
captain of Ohio River steamboats about the time of the War
Between the States, or Civil War.
The evidence came to me from a thoughtful friend, who
saw the song in a current publication for riverboat buffs,
persons who treasure accounts of "rollin" down the river" on
ornate passenger craft.
Title of the song is "Down the River We Swiftly Glide,"
a melody reminiscent of "Over the River and Through the Woods
To Grandmother's House We Go." It is safe to say that it
never made whatever "charts" existed in the 1860's.
Composer was one Nelson Kneass and the song was
published either in Cincinnati by A. C. Peters & Bro. or in
St. Louis, MO by J. L. Peters & Bro.
Capt. Robt. W., according to an accompanying article
with the song, had been a pilot and mate on Ohio River
steamboats prior to 1864. Late in that year, he and J. A.
Stonebreaker, purser on river craft, bought the side-wheeler
Robert Burns, built in Cincinnati at Eversoll's Yard for the
original owners, Capt. George W. Ebert and purser Standish
Peppard, both of Georgetown, PA.
The Robert Burns ran up and down the rivers as an
independent, competing with the regularly established
Cincinnati & Memphis Packet Co., which operated several
boats. In fact, the latter firm acquired the Robert Burns in
1866 and Capt. Robert W. may have retired or found other
employment.
I have been unable to determine additional information,
and I still wonder at the composer`s tribute to Capt. Robert
W., who apparently ran the boat for two years or less.
(6)
Composer Nelson Kneass may not rank with the Bachs,
Strauss family, Leroy Anderson or John Williams, but I'll say
this for him -- he wrote a piano score that would tax the
right hand dexterity of any pianist, living or dead.
This incident was one of those blind alleys that
sidetrack one's genealogical pursuits. In reply to my request
for any additional information on my namesake, the publisher
of the riverboat magazine informed me:
"Absolutely no information."
Since my distant ancestors appear to have tilled the
soil as farmers, I see no personal connection to the
riverboat captain. I'm still working on their possible
employment as fishermen and whalers along the East Coast of
the colonies.
Yet, each time I cross the Ohio River here in Cincinnati
and see the immense tows and other craft, I wonder whether
Captain Robert W. might have run away from the farm as a boy,
and instead of joining the circus, took to the river.

BYRD TERRY FAMILY
Submitted by Mrs. A. J. Morgan
Rt. 2, Box 61 B, Bruce MS 38915
I do not know much about Terry in Texas but have learned
some this year. The earliest is of William Terry 1809-1888
who is buried at Prairie Lea, Texas beside Mittie Terry, who
was his grandson, Byrd Terry's wife.
Byrd was my husband's grandfather and Mittie his
grandmother. This William had a son William also, who was
Byrd's father.
According to information in the 1900 Yalabusha Co., MS
Census, Byrd's father was born in NC and mother in SC. Byrd
was born in AL as was 1st Mittie King and his 2nd wife
Pathenia Chadwick. Byrd came to MS around 1900 and lived near
relatives of his 2nd wife. Mittie and "Thenia" were cousins,
and I believe 1st cousins. I think Thenia was born in Russell
Co. AL....
Byrd had a son William Gary who lived in Yalobusha Co.
MS and had a large family. Some of Wm. G.'s grandsons &
families still live in Yalabusha Co. MS near Water Valley.
Byrd Terry gave Census taker information in 1900 Census that
(7)
his father was born in NC and mother in SC. Much later he
said his father was born in GA (he was old and sick then)....
Byrd had a cousin Walter or Uncle. My husband's mother
visited cousins in Texas in 1950. She had a cousin Ves Terry
who lived in Sudan, TX. He came to MS in 1969 to visit him.
Ves & wife Gladys have two sons, Bill & Bob. They live in AR
& NM. Cousins here say Texas is full of Terrys....We went to
the Cemetery at Prairie Lea and saw the tombs of Wm. Terry
1809-1888 and Mittie Terry 1857-1893.
I have finally learned for sure that census info is not
always correct but I've had to start with that and many times
it is correct. I suspect that Byrd Terry's name may be
something other than Byrd. He is "BY" in some church records.
Pathenia had four names, I've learned recently. Uncle Wm.
(Will) Gary Terry m. Johnny Porter and they had 9 children
that lived to be grown & married and had children. His oldest
lives near Water Valley about 17 miles from us. She was born
in 1900. Others live in Memphis, TN....I hope to hear from
you.

ELIPHALET TERRY
Have you seen a copy of the 1985 "The Hartford"
(9)
calendar? There is a picture of Eliphalet Terry. The date
is Dec 16, 1835, New York City.
Paragraph at the bottom reads: "On December 16, 1835, a
raging fire destroyed half of New York City. Hartford
President Eliphalet Terry set out from Hartford, Ct., in
a horse-drawn sleigh to personally pay claims at the scene of
the disaster. As a result of the pace-setting performance of
President Terry, agent William Walker & others, public
confidence in The Hartford blossomed."
On June 4, 1835 Eliphalet Terry was elected Hartford
President.
At the bottom of the page of June 1985 reads: "On June
27, 1810, the first stockholders' meeting of The Hartford
Fire Insurance Company was held at Ransom's Inn on the banks
of the Connecticut River. Nathaniel Terry was elected presi-
dent and Walter Mitchell was elected secretary." Nathaniel's
signature is also on page for June.
You may have seen the calendar, but just in case you
haven't I thought I'd let you know about it. Quite interes-
ting to me to see the name TERRY anywhere...Betty Martin.

....I intended to send the check for 6 months or more.
Like everything else, I wait till I have to make a special
trip, so to speak...."Forgetfulness is one of those signs of
getting old. I forgot what the other two are". [Picked out
from a letter from Earl T. Terry, 888 Nadine Ave., Eugene OR
97404.]
I have a computer to check spelling but not grammar. It
also does not check words typed twice, words missing, or
nonsensical words. It does everything but type itself which
still largely involves me, the editor.--Case in point--George
A. Terry of Goodlettsville TN has a street address on page
163 of the Dec 84 TFH which should be 304 Highland Heights,
Goodlettsville TN 37092. Nothing misspelled, but he won't
get the mail. Mr. Harold Sears, 8104 Jefferson, Kansas City
MO 66114 was kind enough to point out that his mail was
returned in a phone call. Thanks for pointing out my glaring
[literally] errors. --The Editor.

SCOUTS GIVE CEMETERY A FACE LIFT:
Vandals, weeds had spoiled site.
by Elizabeth Eckstein, staff writer of The News.
MESQUITE -- The old Aunt Abby Frost Cemetery has been
given new life.
The century-old cemetery, covered for years by bramble
and trash, has been cleared and cleaned.
Cub Scout Pack 149 has been working since April, when
pack leader Barbara Howell noticed the sun glinting off a
tombstone obscured by overgrowth and stopped her car to
investigate.
In the weeks since, the 27 Wolves, Bears and Bobcats in
the pack -- with the help of Mrs. Howell, her husband Ben and
several concerned residents -- have cleared brush and
bramble, pulled down dead trees and righted and repaired the
tombstones marking the graves of a dozen Mesquite Pioneers,
including a veteran of the Civil War.
"We thought, when we first came out here, it'd be just a
spooky old cemetery," Tim Duke, 9, said.
Behind him, 11-year-old Carl Bowen pantomimed a hand
reaching from a grave to clasp Tim's ankle. Both shrieked and
laughed.
"But we had the courage to clean it up, and it's
beautiful now," Charles Jackson, 8, said.
Mrs. Howell said some Eastfield College students
cleaned up the cemetery eight or nine years ago but that the
bramble had retaken the cemetery. Most of the wooden crosses
the students placed on the graves rotted, she said.
Vandals were responsible for most of the trash and
damage to the tombstones, she said, and the Mesquite police
have been asked to watch the cemetery more closely.
The Scouts ages 8 to 11, found the tombstone of Rachel
Beckner --born April 20, 1824; died Aug 28, 1862 broken into
two pieces and lying a few feet from the foot marker. It was
repaired by Ben Howell, righted and replaced.
(11)
As part of the cemetery tour, Scouts pointed out the
grave of the Civil War veteran: "Isaac Newton Terry -- born
Jan 29, 1836; died Oct 12, 1889."
Mrs. Howell discovered through genealogy and census
records that he fought in the Civil War.
Records also showed that those buried in the cemetery
were neighbors in what would become the City of Mesquite, and
Mrs. Howell likes to speculate that they arrived together in
a wagon train from Tennessee or Kentucky.
As finishing touches for he cemetery, rose bushes and
irises were planted, a fence erected and curb, concrete
steps and flagpole base poured.
A bare pole stands ready for a historical marker that
the pack has requested from the state.
During a ceremony at 7 p. m. Tuesday, U.S. and Texas
flags will be raised over the cemetery on Belt Line Road near
Bruton Road.
Old Aunt Abby would be proud.

JOHN TERRY OF NORWICH, ENGLAND 1523
Peggy Thomas of 1118 Horizon Trail, Richardson TX 75081
wrote: Finally found the information sheet on the brass I
copied from Westminister in London. It caught my eye because
of my husband's name "John Terry Thomas". He's actually the

A description of the brass indicates that John and Lettys
Terry and their two sons and daughters are on the face. It
was done in 1524 for John who was the mayor of the City of
Norwich in 1523. The plaque shows the coat of arms of the
city and of the Mercers of London and the initials I. T. The
article indicates that he was not a member of the Mercers
Company and had no right to use the arms in the way he did.

NOTES ON A TERRY FAMILY OF MICHIGAN
(12)
by Frances Evelyn (Terry) Kelley
306 W. West St., Sturgis MI 49091
I haven't taken the time before this to write about the
Terry side of my family. My fathers name was Edwin Frank
Terry, born in Coopersville, Michigan May 30, 1875. His
father's name was Lyman Terry. His mother's name was Armenia
Minerva Mapes or Bostick or both. My mother said she had been
married to an Indian before she married Lyman. Lyman had a
brother Harvey Terry, he lived in Coopersville too. My father
had a sister Etta and a brother Elmer. My father married my
mother Sarah Amanda Nayant about 1900. My brother Clarence
was born March 4, 1902, my sister Esther October 28, 1904 and
my birth date is February 6, 1914. My brother Edwin L. Terry
was born Jun 15, 1918. Clarence is deceased. Elmer Terry was
married to Margaret, they had a daughter Mable who was
married and living in Grand Rapids, but I don't know if she
is still alive. Her married name is Merron.
I was 16 years old when my mother died and we lost touch
with our relatives. I think the Terry's came from the eastern
states;, perhaps New York. I had joined a genealogy class
recently at our High School, but had to give it up because my
husband became ill and is in a hospital. I hope I can get
back to it before it ends. We were gong to the Fort Wayne, IN
Library where they have many records. I have enjoyed reading
the Terry F. Historian, it seems there are lots of Terrys in
the Southern States.

NOTES ON TERRY'S OF VIRGINIA PAST AND PRESENT
By W. Sanford Terry, Jr.,
P. O. Box 13032, Richmond VA 23225.
We are anxiously expecting our second child in February
and if a boy will name him Barton Harrison Terry. This name
may be the key to my line and missing records. Barton Terry
was the grandson of Champness Terry of Louisa, VA. but 100
years earlier in 1699, the name appeared on a petition to the
Governor of Virginia.
Also, the ancestor immigrant 1635 was Andrew Terry (VA)
and living one generation after him was Andrew Barton Terry.
The Harrison name comes from my wife's family, the James

I have more updated information for you but haven't had
the time to write it up properly. In addition, have a lead
and contact with individuals with access to Terry research

My most interesting recent study has been that of the
legendary Col. B. F. (Frank) Terry, C. S. A. organizer and
leader of the 8th Texas Cavalry, C. S. A. known as Terry's
Texas Rangers! Please find the enclosed renewal for the TFH,

NOTES ON WASHINGTON COUNTY ARKANSAS TERRY'S
Mrs. Bob L. Cook, 306 Butts St.
Holdenville, OK 74848
I have a TERRY in my family tree, but am having
difficulty trying top find a place to start on her.
She was Nancy Terry who married William T. Harp. The
first account I find of her is in Fayetteville, Washington
Co. AR in 1862 where they owned land. A deed was witnessed by
William Terry. Nancy was the mother of my great-grandmother
Angelina (Harp) Boyd. [She was married to John B. Boyd in
Cedar Vale, Chant? Co. Kansas.]
I also have a postal card from Purdy, MO 1880 signed M.
M. (Terry) Martin -- mentions her father's dying (Terry?)
and her mother still alive. I thought maybe you've run into
this name?

TROUBLES OF A BAPTIST MINISTER - 1776
Anson County in 1776 was a scene of turmoil. With most
of the Tory leaders in jail in Virginia or Philadelphia as a
result of the Battle of Moores Creek Bridge and Whig extrem-
ists exhorting their views to all who would listen, it was
not safe to utter any words or perform any act that would
even imply Tory sympathies. In such an atmosphere it was not
difficult for one to twist the meaning of another's utter-
ances and cause great trouble. Such is what happened to James
Terry, Jr.
James Terry, Jr., was a Newlight Baptist preacher in
Anson County. Terry was an ardent Whig, but he also felt
himself a realist. On 1 Sep 1776, while riding through the
woods with John Allen, he told Allen the inhabitants of
Quebec and Florida were all Tories, that the King had
possession of these and had a right to do with them as he
felt and that we had to fight it out in the middle between
them. He added, "If the King cannot subdue us, he may sell
claim to us to some other Nation".
Terry thought no more of the conversation until the 14th
of October, when he was at the house of William Pickett.
There was a gathering of people at the house and sometime in
the evening Terry asked Pickett, Capt. Walton Harris, Burwell
Lanier and James Allen to go with him to one of the upper
rooms. There they met John Allen, who turned on Terry and
said he was very prejudiced against Terry, for Terry's
comments of September. Terry told John Allen he was sorry
Allen was dissatisfied with him on that account. Terry said
further, "I did not speak those words out of any disaffection
to the American Cause, but that it was the truth. We have
gone from the King and not the King from us, our going from
the King did not disannul his right to us. For if we had a
Negro that runs away, his running away does not disannul our
Right to him. WE should have a right to sell the same Negro
to any Person that would buy him". Terry continued, "The King
(15)
has a Right to sell us to the Turks or any other nation, on
half for conquering the whole. He has a Right to sell us to
the Turks or any other nation for Servants or Slaves". John
Allen and Lanier discussed this concept further with Terry.
Finally Burwell Lanier acknowledged himself satisfied that
there was nothing really hurtful to the American Cause in
these statements.
John Allen was apparently not satisfied and went to
Samuel Spencer who was chairman of the Anson County Committee
of Surety, Intelligence and Observation. Concerned that
Terry's remarks might cause some people to become disaffected
with the American Cause, Spencer held a hearing before the
Committee on 26 October. At this hearing they questioned
Terry and Capt. Walton Harris as to what had been said.
Feeling additional testimony was needed, Spencer adjourned
the hearing until the 6th November. At the second hearing
Burwell Lanier gave his testimony as to the conversation.
Even under intense cross-examination Terry would not change
his opinion. At the conclusion of the hearing, which lasted
until dark, Spencer felt action in the matter should be
handled by the Provincial Congress which was to convene in
Halifax, North Carolina, the 10th of November. It is very
likely Terry was confined to jail because he obstinately
refused to provide any surety that would guarantee his
appearance before the Provincial Congress.
Being fully cognizant that, with the tenor of the times
he would be caused a great deal of injury, James Terry, Jr.,
procured affidavits from a number of individuals stressing
his devotion to the American Cause. Both Shd. Hogan and D.
Smith pointed out that in February 1775 John Colson,
accompanied by Governor Martin's waiting man, got up before a
large crowd in Anson County and read a letter from the
Governor applauding Colson's loyalty and protesting the
actions of the Provincial Congress and the Committees of
Safety. Following this action Colson proceeded to urge the
people to sign the protest. At this point, Terry stepped up
to Colson and told him, "I think the King and Parliament are
both wrong and they are about to open the door to oppress-
ion." Terry continued along the same vein emphasizing the
justness of the American Cause. Because of his arguments,
Terry dissuaded a large number of people from signing the
protest. Terry continued to argue on behalf of the cause of
Liberty both publicly and privately.
In July 1775 a gathering was held at Anson County
Courthouse to have a day of Fasting and Prayer at the request
of the Committee of South Carolina to implore the Almighty's
blessings on the American Cause. In a conversation between
Terry and William Moody, Moody stated he was sorry that the
(16)
present distress of American had happened in this day. Terry
immediately rejoined, "I'm glad it happened in my day that I
might see what my Posterity has to depend upon". Then, at the
request of the people, Terry offered prayer before the
gathering praying for the success of America and gave God
thanks that the dispute between our Mother Country and
America happened in his day. Following the prayer Terry then
began to talk to the gathering about the nature of the cause
by proving the difficulties and hardships their forebears
underwent to obtain the Freedom of America.
In early 1776 the Tories began to assemble, prior to
their planned march to Wilmington, at Dry Creek. One Sunday
while the Tories were encamped at Dry Creek James Terry Jr.,
was preaching at Little River Meeting House. During the
course of the sermon several armed Tories rode up to the
Meeting House. After the sermon they asked Terry to ride with
them a little way because they wanted his advice concerning
the then present disturbances. Terry, in company with James
Auldman, rode a short way and advised the Tories not to go to
the Scottish camps for Terry believed they were in the wrong.
The Tories were not convinced and Terry went on his way.
Auldman rode with the Tories a little further when one of the
Tories stopped and turning to the others said, "I've a good
mind to go back and take Terry and carry him to the King's
camp". The Tory finally decided that maybe Terry advised them
for their own good and left him alone.
On the 23rd November 1776 the Provincial Congress
received the signed oath of James Terry, Jr., stating: "I
will bear faith and true Allegiance to the Independent State
of North Carolina and I will to the Utmost of my Powers
maintain, support & defend the same against the forces of
Great Britain and all other Enemies of the Independent States
of America and this I do most solemnly swear without any
Equivocation, mental Evasion or secret Reservation
whatsoever". With this Terry was allowed to return to his
peaceful ministrations to the people of Anson County.
(I should mention that Terry later represented Anson County
in the General Assembly, but that is another Story.)

MISSING TERRY
Your address was in the Kansas City paper recently,
concerning your research into families with the last name
Terry.
I am looking for the records of a VIRGINIA TERRY who
owned property in LaPorte, TX (Harris CO.) in 1923. That is
when she bought it. She died, but I don't know when, leaving
the property to her child, Ellery Terry, a minor. When Ellery
was about 17 years old (1937), the property was sold to my
father, Dr. D. R. Aves. Ellery's guardian handled the sale.
My father and mother both died more than 30 years ago
and now my sisters and I have a chance to sell the property.
However, the title company will not issue a guaranteed title
unless we can come up with a copy of Virginia Terry's will,
leaving the land to Ellery Terry.
With the above sketchy information,how can I find out
more about Virginia Terry? The Harris County Court house
could not help without a date of death. Do you have
information that would be useful, such as:
1. Date and place of death of Virginia Terry, born
somewhere around 1900, and/or
2. Married name of Ellery Terry, born about 1920, and
her present address if still living.
[She noted]....I am willing to pay a reasonable fee. Thank
you for your time. Laura M. Curry, 4229 Campbell, Kansas City

NOTES ON DESCENDANTS OF CURTIS TERRY
By Colleen Belk, P. O. Box 25, Duenweg, MO 64841-0025
My great grandmother Eliza Jane Terry was the daughter
of Jesse K. Terry. Jesse was killed when she was 9 years old.
She witnessed his death---. He was accused of being a
Southern sympathizer [which he was!]
Eliza spoke of her "Uncle Brazewell"in her late years
telling that he was the one in the family that [was] Yankee
minded in his talk--and it caused hard feelings. After the
War Uncle Brazewell and his wife came to Jasper Co. MO--and
stopped briefly--after he learned of Jesse's tragic death he
just "went away on to Texas."--
It took some time to find any record of Brazewell and I
firmly believe this James B. Terry is that man. Do you think
the initials in the corner of the page are V. M. or N. M.?
James Brazewell Terry b. 1831 was the son of Curtis Terry and
(19)
Elizabeth Kuykendall. James married Amanda Pearson. The
family story I'd heard was that he had "gone to Texas." I am
interested in the record mostly because it gives his
description. He was the brother to my great-great grandfather
Jesse K. Terry. Eliza Jane Terry Webb Bigger lived in North
Enid, OK in the years of the 1930's--with her older son Jesse
Thomas Webb and his family. He lived on the Biggs place.

involving the 4's above. Can anyone blame her?
Joan quit school at the age of eleven; later, having her
high school records forged, so she could attend college,
after which, she entered show business, a career which spans
some 47 years plus, having made in excess of eighty
outstanding films.
Joan had four adopted children. Her will left her estate
to two twin daughters, the other two children were
disinherited. Her will states reason as, "Known only to
them".
Joan Crawford, was one of our greatest movie actresses
and one we can be very proud of.
Her great-grandfather and great-grandmother, are buried

miles northeast of the town of Floyd, Virginia, on what is
(21)
known as the Old Christianburg Road. The cemetery is on a
hilltop and on the left side of the road. The oldest grave in
this cemetery is dated 1887.

PARSHALL TERRY: Father and Son
I have always been intrigued by the story of one
Parshall Terry Jr. and his father Parshall Terry Sr. Both of
whom found themselves on different sides of the fence during
the Revolutionary War.
Parshall Terry Jr., baptized 22 Feb 1756, was the son of
Parshall Terry Sr. and Deborah Clark. He was noted to have
been at the battle of Wyoming, known as the Wyoming Massacre,
in July, 1778.
He is said to have been a member of the First
Westmoreland Independent Company in 1776 and served with
Washington's army for some time.
The story, as it goes, is he stopped to tie his shoe and
was reprimanded by an officer. He was struck with a sword by
the officer and as a result knocked the officer down and
fled. It was noted he deserted January 11, 1777.
Later he joined the British Army and became a Lieutenant
in Butler's Rangers, Royal Greens.
The story further indicates that Parshall Terry, Sr. and
his other sons were on the side of the Colonials in the same
battle; reports were later generated that he had killed his
father, mother and brothers and sisters during the battle.
Captain Jonathan Terry, his brother, later testified that
these reports were false and his brother, Parshall Jr., had
come to the Fort to save their lives..."My father, has
survived many years, and died among his friends in this place
[Terrytown, PA?] in good old age."
His sister, Deborah Terry Horton, spoke of him in less
kind words and noted she saw her "Tory" brother stand by
while Indians cut her father's shoes off his feet.
A more moderate view of the family differences was noted
in 1914 by a J. Washington Ingham, a great grandson of
Parshall, Jr. who opined: "In justice to him it ought to be
said that between him and the rest of the family, there were
only political differences."
At the close of the Revolutionary War [1783 or 1789 by
some accounts] Parshall Terry Jr. moved to Upper Canada, now
Ontario, where he was given some large holdings by the Crown.
(23)
Tradition is, he was a member of the First Parliament for
upper Canada, but this has not been verified.
Later descendants of this particular Terry Family
clan migrated to Michigan, Illinois, and Utah. Several were
prominent early members of the Church of Jesus Christ of the
Latter Day Saints.

Albert's parents? My great-great grandmother, Zulpha / Zelpha
/ Zelphia TERRY was born at Lima, Livingston Co. NY ca.
1805. In my research, her name has been constantly linked
with Albert, Julius, Hiram, Cassina TERRY. But, have not
made exact relationships. She has been listed in the Botsford
Genealogy as married to Elnathan Botsford ca. 1830-31.
Elnathan died 1 Mar 1837, Livonia NY. There were two children
born, William Hiram and George S. Zelphia moved to Ohio soon
after the death of Elnathan; remarried Henry Williams. From
this union were born six children, from which I am descended.

moved to East Texas around Clarksville and Paris. My great
grandfather died at Hugo, OK 1907....We attended the TERRY
family reunion near Moulton, AL last Labor Day. There were
over 1,000 people who were there--quite an experience. Didn't

I want to tell you what a fine job you are doing. I've
taken other "Surname" publications and yours is by far the
best. Where others seem to run out of material you seem
to have more than enough. My line is George TERRY of Hanover
& Charlotte Counties VA d. 3 Jan 1803 is so well recorded
from George to me it is very strange that no one can find him
before 1761. That his first wife was a Pettus is proved by
John Pettus deeding George land "for love" but no guess his
been made to who his parents are. I anyone else working on
this branch of the TERRY family? Bartina Peoples, Rt. 3, Box

Nathaniel, Elizabeth (m. John Taylor), Harriet Taylor (m.
Roderick). As I'm sure you are aware, I have been able to
join numerous genealogical organizations on this line. I
believe I have fairly complete information on the Terrys and
most of the families they have married into, but I'm also
sure that I would be interested in reading your publication.

I am not having much luck on my TERRY ancestors.Henry
TERRY and Mary Ann Baldwin had a daughter Nancy Bibb TERRY,
who was born in VA ca. 1786 or 1787. Next was Sara Ira TERRY
who was b. in SC 1788. I have a photo of her tombstone. I
have heard there was a third child, Henry TERRY Jr., but I
have no proof of this. Henry TERRY Sr. apparently died prior
to 1790. His daughter, Sarah TERRY married John McDaniel and
his daughter, Nancy McDaniel married Phillip McDaniel, the
brother of John McDaniel. Wish I could find more proof of
this line re: Henry Terry's parents.

260385 TERRY REEVE ROGERS MOORE
Mayflower Families Through Five Generations was
published in 1983. It adds new information and confusion for
TERRY researchers. They show Mary TERRY who married James
Reeve ( -1698), as being descended from Thomas Rogers of
(33)
the Mayflower, via John Rogers, and Ann Rogers. Ann Rogers
being the wife of Thomas TERRY Freetown, MA. Could this
Thomas TERRY be the son of Thomas TERRY (1607-1672) of
Southold, LI? The will of Thomas TERRY of Southold refers to
" my daughter Mary Reeve", could he have been referring to a
granddaughter as daughter? Any help with the above problems
will be appreciated. Phillip J. Moore, 221 East North St.,
