Thanks for answering. I would be happy to share my research with you. Henry was the son
of David and Rosanna Harwood Castleberry. David, born 1778 in Orange Co.N.C. and died
Aug. 1847. His will was made in May 1847. Rosanna was born about 1777 and died April l,
1860, in Orange Co., N.C. Their children were: Sarah (who married Gideon Canada in Wake
Co., N.C. April 4, 1831) Nancy, born 1800 but not married in 1850, Joseph, born abt. 1805
but died before 1840 in Wake Co.,N.C. who married Sarah Alman on Oct. 2, 1827, Henry, born
in 1810 in Orange Co., N.C., Martha, born in Orange Co. in 1811, Franklin, born 1812 and
died Sept., 1846 who married Dicey Harwood in 1838, and John, born 1814 who married
Catherine Fannett or Fennell. John shows up in the 1840 and 1850 census for Wake Co.,
N.C. and traced him to DeSoto Co., Miss. in 1860. You can follow him easily (since there
are so many John Castleberrys)by his sister-in-law, Patience Fennel, who lived with them
always and never m!
arried. The children who lived with others were Jane, Narcissa, Matilda, Mary A.P.,
Emily, Charles, and Henry Jr. I have had no luck matching these children up to anyone or
even finding them after 1850. Back to David and Rosanna, the father and mother of David
is Paul, son of William and Margaret, and his wife was Susannah (Sukey). Some of this
information comes from "Castleberry and Allied Families" by Dr. Jesse Wendell.
You would do well to buy this book as it has a lot of this branch of Castleberrys. If you
are interested, I will send you the address where you can buy it although it is pricey at
$125.00 plus shipping.
