He died in Marble Hill Madison County Missouri don't know much about him as I learn I will add

Bar Mitzvah made it on 16 April 1784


according to the census this is when he died which are on ancestry.com and familysearch.org


I know from the years my Aunt Mary lou Jones (died 2003)and Aunt Pat Ingram research the family tree

these are my great great grandparents.

In some cases of research alot of similar names were used in each generation born but it doesn't mean you are related it means you could be.

This is the importance of this generation keeping track of names.

I have not had access to family bibles I am just going off what I found and what my relatives had told me.

Oct 7, 2017 note from Michael Miller:
Hiram did NOT die in Madison County or in Marble Hill. He died at the home of his son Wm Greene Berry in Crossroads, Bollinger Co. MO. He came home from church and fell in the doorway, and never regained consciousness. He most likely had a massive stroke.

When he died they could not because of the roads take him to town or to where Amelia was buried in Madison County. Evidently they could not take him to town where they were going to be buried, so there was a small cemetery on the farm where they had two infant children buried.

The grave was marked by an iron rod, and then remarked. In 1988 the family erected a tombstone on the grave which I have a photo of.

Note: a new cemetery "William Berry Farm Cemetery" in Bollinger County has been created on findagrave by Michael Miller; Hiram Berry Sr. is now shown buried there.
