Berry was the son of William Berry 1715 – 1740 and Elizabeth Bradley 1715 – 1740. Bradley Berry first married Ann Woods and they had the following known children:
William Woods Berry
George Berry (m. Sarah Clack),
Nancy Berry (m. James Reynolds),
Mary Berry (m. Jesse Baber),
Betsy Berry (m. James Horne)
Rebecca Berry
On November 29, 1781, Bradley Berry married Elizabeth Fields in Albemarle County, Virginia. A known child from this marriage was Franklin Berry.
Bradley Berry participated in the American Revolution. The Daughters of the American Revolution have documented Berry's service. The organization has designated Berry "DAR Ancestor Number A009574".
Bradley Berry's will was dated August 17, 1787, and he was deceased by February, 1795, when the will was probated in Albemarle County, Virginia.
The actual burial site of Bradley Berry has been lost to history. We have placed a Memorial Stone honoring him in the Cantrell Gilliand Memorial Garden. May this memorial serve as an expression of the gratitude we owe Bradley Berry for braving the unknown to help build a new country: our America.
Note: Descendant Ken Berry sent the following additional information about Bradley Berry’s gravesite:
"It is not “unknown” but it no longer has a grave marker.
In 1790 he helped organize, and was one of the first members of, Mount Ed Baptist Church in Batesville, Virginia.
The congregation met in an old blacksmith house on Sundays on the south side of what is today state route 685.
By the 1850s the old wooden building was beginning to fall down from age, and in 1856 it was decided to build a larger brick church directly across from it on the north side of state route 685. The old building on the south side of the road was torn down along with the mostly wooden grave markers and the land plowed under, so nothing remains but the burial site.
In the new church (now 160 years old) is a brass plate on one of the pews with his name as a founder of the church. Please see attached photo of the church and map."
This is truly the value of Find A Grave. It is especially gratifying when a descendant or other interested individual can add information. Several people have been able to add such information to other memorials I created. It does "take a village".
