"In 1860 Elizabeth was living with her son Thomas J. Wherry. In the 1837/8 Shelby County Tax Roles, Elizabeth is listed as a owner of property. This property probably passed over to her when her husband died. Son, Thomas J. probably lived with her according to census records. He apparantely farmed the land. Elizabeth and husband Andrew were members of the Fishing Creek AR Presbyterian Church, Chester Co, SC. Ref Church Records of 1816."

Could not locate Elizabeth Wherry in the 1870 census so it is assumed she died between 1860 and 1870 in Shelby Co., TN.
