  !CENSUS:1850 Marion Dist., SC # 1329/1334 Andrew Berry 50 Farmer $5000 Marion Elizabeth 35 Stephen 20 Bright 16 Nathan 14 Ann 12 Joseph 10 Mary 8 Henry 4 Clost 3 m Tight 2 m Joannah 1 Thomas Jackson 18 Labourer; !REFERENCE: A History of Marion County, South Carolina From Its Earliest Times to the Present, 1901, by W. W. Sellers, Esq., of the Marion Bar. 1902. pp. 148-157 ... Andrew Berry, a grand-son of the first Andrew, and brother of Cross Roads Henry, lived to the advanced age of eighty-nine, and died only a few years ago; was a harmless, inoffensive man; raised by two wives several sons and daughters- Captain Stephen F. Berry and Bright Berry by the first marriage (the latter of whom is now dead, leaving a considerable family, sons and daughters, names unknown), and by the second marriage, Henry, Nathan, Joseph and two other sons, nicknamed "Close" and "Tight." Nathan married a daughter of Daniel A. Platt, and died, leaving a son named David. Joseph Berry married his brother Nathan's widow, and' has a considerable family. Of the brothers, "Close" and "Tight," the writer knows nothing, and can, therefore, say nothing more. Andrew Berry had several daughters, but knows not to whom they married ; no doubt but that there is a numerous progeny from Andrew (second) Berry, but they are unknown to the writer. ;
