Please note: If you would like to be introduced to other cousins who are researching our Berry line, please let us know by including the following statement in your message: “I would like to know and research with my distant Berry Cousins.”

When we determine that you are a descendant of Robert Berry and Elizabeth Cate, we will send you a list of email addresses and contact information for other consenting Berry cousins who are also researching our Berry family. We will always try to protect your privacy.

A note from Benjamin Henderson#

“Getting to know the other living dedicated genealogical family researchers of our Robert and Elizabeth Cate Berry family is a way to expand our knowledge. We know this from 20 years of doing it the hard way. It took me 2 years before I met my first family distant cousin on the internet. She lived in Texas and happened to be descended from my ggg grandfather’s half sister.

As more and more contacts were made we began to finally expand our research and once we started using Y-DNA our knowledge really expanded rapidly. Matching YDNA is all we need to prove that any male is a member of our large family. It recently occurred to me that our current website provided no way to accomplish this. Connecting in the younger generations is so important. You are the researchers who will carry on this research after our generation can no longer participate.”

Let us know your privacy preference#

Option 1: Include the statement “I would like to know and research with my distant Berry Cousins.” with your message — we will reply to your question and your email address will be placed on a private list shared only with other Robert and Elizabeth Cate Berry family researchers.

Option 2: If you don’t include that statement, we will reply to your question and your email will not be shared with anyone. The choice is entirely yours.

Additionally, if you have any source information (links, census data, citations, wills, birth or death records) you would like to share with the site and your cousins, please include them with your message. Thanks!
