Robert H. Berry was the son of John Berry 1775-1840 and Elizabeth "Betsy" Harris 1782-1877. (They were my 5 x great grandparents, proven with DNA.)

Robert H. Berry first married Mary Ann Paterson in 1848 in Pettis County, Missouri. Their children were Ann E, Sarah E, Thomas Gilbert, twins Angeline "Angie" and Emeline "Emma", and Martha Jane "Mattie". By the 1900 Census, after having a total of six children, only three were living.

After the death of his first wife Robert married Isabella Wilson on January 3, 1856.

*Having two other brothers with the middle name of Harris after their mother's maiden name, I would say there is a likelihood that Robert's middle name was Harris as well. But it is an assumption, as no document has been found yet.
