Hi there

Apols if this is completely the wrong person but hey- worth a try.

My wife's surname is BLACK, and her ancestor Randal John Hamilton Black married Mary Ann Berry in Cavan, 1869.

Wonder if we've the same Mary Ann Berry or whether it's not; you may be able to place 'my' Mary with 'yours'.

Incidentally, following Mary and Randal's marriage, the name Berry remained as a middle name in both the American/Canadian and Irish branches of the Black family.

All the best

Matt

Dear Matt,
With a quick look I can`t find a BLACK & BERRY marriage for Co Cavan but I would say they have to be the same family.
There are lots of BERRY branches on this tree with missing Berrys and some went to America.
If you look on the net you should beable to find my email address and I`ll be happy to send you a copy of the Berry family tree.

A sample.

3 children;

3/ MARY BERRY.

2/ (Above) JAMES BERRY b. 1773 d. 11 April 1861. Of Croghan. He married Margaretta?, B 1777, d. 9 May 1861.
13 / children;
1/ THOMAS BERRY. Went to America.
2/ JOHN BERRY.
3/ & 4/ Sons, who died in infancy.
5/ Daughter, died young.
6/ JAMES BERRY, died 15 JAN. 1866. Went to America.

I`m looking for any info on the REDFERN family in Ireland, the name doesn`t seem very common in Kilmore And Armagh Diocese, IRE. where THOMAS BERRY (father James died abt.1770-7, co.Cavan) married in 1746, MARY REDFERN, born about 1725.

THOMAS & MARY had two known children;
1/ JANE BERRY b. abt 1748 ( as above) WILLIAM BLEAKLY 30 Jan. 1769, Killeshandra.

2/ MARGERY BERRY b. abt 1752, marr. THOMAS BERRY 1773 ( maybe?)

Maybe the REDFERNS came from another area?

Thank you for your time.
