HI:
I'm researching my slave ancestors MOSES BERRY, his parent JUDAH, Moses'
wife MARIAH PRYOR, and her parents, SEYMOUR and PARMITIA PRYOR.
I want to trace the following slaves and slave owners:
I have found a deed of emancipation filed in Mason County, KY, Order Book,
February Court 1838 by JOANNA BERRY freeing Seymour.
Joanna was married to THOMAS BERRY. Her father was BENJAMIN CLIFT (according
to "The Clift Family, 1666-1950," by G. Glenn Clift, Frankfort, KY, 1950),
born in Guilford Co., NC in 1744. Clift lived in Culpepper and King counties,
VA., also).
Clift moved to Mason County, KY, after his son NELSON went ahead of him and
bought land there. Benjamin lived in Mason Co. after 1803, when he owned 6
slaves. In the 1810 Census he owned 8 slaves.
His daughter Joanna/Johannah married THOMAS BERRY; among the slaves listed in
his will dated 1806 was JUBOY (perhaps JUDAH?).
MOSES, age 17, and MARIA, age 5, were listed in the 1837 probated will of
JOHN CHAMBERLAIN.
Please check out my genealogy Web site, which has more details about the
Berrys. Also please understand that I have no other info on the Clifts than what I
have posted.
I am primarily concerned with pinning down the slave owners of Moses Berry
and his wife Mariah Prior. Thanks!

Would love to hear from anyone with an interest in the CLIFT family from the Marhamchurch Cornwall area (near Stratton Cornwall) and from Plymouth Devon, later moving on to Brixham Devon. There is also a connection with Barnstaple North Devon.
