Notes for John Berryhill Jr:
John Berryhill Jr. was born in Carolina in 1728. Married Rachel Moffat, daughter of James Moffat. He was a farmer by occupation. Sometime or other he settled in the Scotch-Irish settlement in Augusta County, VA. They located some where between Staunton and Lexington. John’s name is recorded in the will of James Moffat. Dated June 25, 1757, where appears the words: "Son-in-law John Berryhill and his wife Rachel Berryhill as Beneficiaries." John’s name appears in various legal documents in 1761, 1764, 1765, and 1767. In Calkley’s Augusta Co., Va. Chronicles, Page 778 appear these lines.
"March 12, 1765, James Trimble of Greene Springs and Sarah Trimble conveyed to John Berryhill for 50 lbs. Sterling, 180 acres on Borders Creek in the forks of James River, corner of James Trimble, Patrick McCollom's line."
This property is now in Rockbridge, Co. John was a prominent and respected citizen of Virginia.
According to one unconfirmed source, John Berryhill is buried in Lexington, VA, in the same cemetery as Stonewall Jackson. Ronald L. Berryhill a 4th great grandson, visited the cemetery in October of 1997 and could not find the grave. However, it is a very old cemetery and has many grave stones which have worn smooth over the years and all inscriptions are completely gone. The cemetery office was closed. Research continues.

Alexander Berryhill and Rachel Thomson were married April 5, 1786 by Reverend Archibald Scott. Rachel was the daughter of William Thomson and a niece of Charles Thomson. Charles Thomson was a secretary to the First Continental Congress; a man of some executive ability and writer. His Translation of the New Testament was a four volume work and the copy, his niece had, is still in the possession of her descendants.
Alexander seems to have been a very active and industrious citizen of Virginia and very successful in his endeavors. He is recorded as being named to positions of trust and seems to have the confidence of his neighbors. In 1808, William Thomson, in his will, named his daughter, Rachel Berryhill, as one of the legatees.
We are not certain of the exact spot where they lived in Virginia. The biographies of all say they were born in Augusta County, Virginia. Archibald near Staunton, Augusta County, William T. Mentions being born near Brownsburg, Augusta County, Virginia. Warden Crow places them near Moffett’s Creek, Post Office. Alexander Berryhill (genealogist of Pittsburgh) placed them at a place now called called Church Ville, near Staunton
(from Dorajean Keller)
Putnam Co. Ohio Censuses for 1840, 1850, and 1860 list Alexander Berryhill. Is this the same family that is in the 1830 Census of Miami Co.Ohio? 1850 Census lists his age as 56 (b. ca 1794) and the 1860 Census lists his age as 65 (b. ca 1795).
History of Greene County,Ohio p. 1902 page 271 says Alexander Berryhill b. 1748 d. 1823 aged 59 was a soldier of Revolution. A few lines down it states Alexander Berryhill Jr. fourth son of Alexander removed to Miami County, Ohio. Note: His tombstone states 1764-1823 - picture in Cemetery Tombstone Inscriptions and Photographs of Selected Greene Co.,Ohio Pioneers,page 7.
Revolutionary War Veterans of Greene County, Ohio p. 1995 page 26 lists Alexander Berryhill b. 1764 Augusta Co., VA and d. 8 Oct 1823. This lists his children and his fourth son is given as Alexander b. 18 Jan 1795. At the bottom of the page it lists 2 descendants: Leona Crow Goodpasture and Stephen Berryhill.
I have a photocopy of Alexander Berryhill will from microfilm at the Putnam County District Library at Ottawa, Ohio. It lists his children as: Mary Jane, Roanna, David, William, Susanna, Mathew, Elizabeth & John. William had Sarah E., William A., James M., Mary Ellen, Lena J. and Thomas. My husband is descended from Sarah E. while Leona Crow Goodpasture is descended from Lena J.

Potrait and Biography pg 337
MATTHEW BERRYHILL. One who has knowledge of the relative value of soils or of any matter pertaining to farm life, can yet determine at a glance whether the farm upon which he gazes is valuable and well managed. A visitor to the estate of the above named gentleman in Sugar Creek Township, Greene County, would know at once that its owner possesses enterprise, perseverance, and skill in agriculture. The entire place bears an air of neatness and order, and of thorough cultivation, while the buildings, which have been erected upon it, are substantial, well designed and conveniently located. The residence, a brick edifice, was erected in 1837, and other structures now used are of more recent date.
The paternal grandfather of our subject was John Berryhill, a native of Ireland, who settled in Virginia, and there reared a family, among them being Alexander, who was born in Augusta County and became a farmer. He married Rachael Thomson, who was also a native of the Old Dominion, and was a direct descendant of Charles Thomson, Secretary of the Continental Congress. After their marriage Mr. and Mrs. Alexander Berryhill resided on a farm in Virginia until 1814, when they sold out and came to Ohio. Buying six hundred and forty acres of wild land in this county, now section 5, Sugar Creek Township, a log house was built and clearing begun upon the land. The dwelling being of hewn logs and two stories in height was considered quite an- aristocratic residence.
Having considerable means and a large family of robust boys, Mr. Berryhill had a large tract of land cleared and devoted his attention wholly to farming. He and his wife were members of the Presbyterian Church. The death of the father occurred in September 1823, the mother surviving until 1838. But two of the eleven children of whom they were the parents are now living, these being our subject and his brother Franklin. The family circle once included James, William, John, Alexander, Margaret, Samuel, Archibald, Rachael, Matthew, Elizabeth and Franklin.
Mr. Berryhill was a Revolutionary soldier belonging to a Virginia regiment. At the battle of Guilford Court-House he was taken prisoner; after he had surrendered his gun a British officer struck him on the head with his sword and he carried the scar to his grave. His son John served in the War of 1812, and the relatives of Mrs. Berryhill, of this notice, also fought in the last-named struggle for tile rights of American citizens.
The natal day of Mathew Berryhill was January 7, 1807, and his birth occurred in Augusta County, VA. He was seven years of age when his father came to this county, in which there were very few settlers and no improvements but a few cabins. There is but one other person now living in this locality who was here when the Berryhill family came. School advantages were very meager at that time and the principal knowledge obtained by the boys and girls was that which they could acquire under the home roofs, and in pursuit of their labors as young assistants to the pioneers. During his boyhood our subject helped to clear the farm of his father and he has never spared himself but has ever been extremely busy and hard working.
The father having died when our subject was but fifteen years of age, the estate was Settled and young Matthew given the portion belonging to him, and from that time transacted all his own business, although he remained at the old home until his marriage. On March 21,1831, he became the husband of Miss Angelina Tolbert, who was born in Virginia, November 24, 1809, and the young couple settled on his portion of the old homestead for a short term. He then sold out and in 1835 bought the farm which he now occupies on section 36, Sugar Creek Township, to which he removed the following year. The farm comprises one hundred and sixty acres, of which one hundred and fifteen acres are now under the plow, having been broken by himself. He has added to the acreage, now owning four hundred and eighty-eight acres in this township, and he also possesses two hundred and thirty-seven acres in Fountain County, MD.
Although they are now quite old, both Mr. and Mrs. Berryhill enjoy good health, and he has never been afflicted with any disease. They have no children but have been instrumental in helping to bring up those who needed parental care. Mrs. Berryhill has been a member of the Presbyterian Church for over fifty years. Mr. Berryhill has been a Supervisor and has always taken an interest in local politics. His first Presidential vote was cast for Andrew Jackson and he has never missed an election since that time, voting the Whig, and later the Republican, ticket. He arid his estimable companion have made several trips to different parts of the West, using a portion of the means which they possess in such an abundant measure, in the enjoyment of varied scenes. They are accorded a due measure of respect by those who know them and are numbered among the landmarks of the county.

They have a list called IGI (Genalogy Indexes for different states.
They list the name of a person, father/mother or spouse, sex, type of info (b-birth, m-marriage, w-will, d-death); event date; location and how this source was given and by who. Most of Alexander's & Elizabeth's children are listed in this index and dates of birth. Other sources of info on this branch of the Berryhills, starting with Alexander, who fought in the Revolutionary War and was injured at Guilford Courthouse was documented in the history of Greene Co., Ohio by his sons Matthew and Franklin. And by a couple of researchers starting with W.A. Crow back in Aug 1931 and by Harold Ellis Berryhill in the 1950's, who was raised in the area with all relatives attending family reunions. Some of our info came from the Census records for SugarCreek Township in Greene Co., in June 1880. Some of this info also came from old Bellbrook Papers, tax reports,
headstones, church records (of which several of Alexander's children became ministers). Marriage records. If you want any individual source of info we could try to get it for you. Harold Ellis' son Stephen is a teacher in Bellbrook and can also help. While doing this since 1960 lots of info has passed through my hands that I also was suspect of but most of my info came from the families themselves. Hope to help out. TEXASKEN
