Roseann Frances Berry is the daughter of William Clarence and Sally Bowles Berry#

Roseann Frances Berry was born in 1833 in Orange County North Carolina. She is the daughter of William Clarence Berry and Sally Bowles Berry. Sally Bowles Berry died when Roann was born or shortly afterwards. William Clarence Berry and his brother, Thomas Person Berry, sold their jointly owned property on September 19th 1833. It is my belief that William, Thomas and their other brother, Robert C. Berry, had decided to go to Fayette County Alabama where their Uncle Robert Berry Jr and his family settled in 1824. Their half sister, Elizabeth Berry Franklin and her husband Theodrick Franklin decided to go to Alabama with Elizabeth’s three brothers. When the trip to Alabama occurred in 1834 all of the children were very young. Roann was a year old, George Rufus was 5, and Elizabeth Jane was 3. Theodric and Elizabeth Franklin’s daughter, Temperance Jane Franklin, was 2. I am not certain if Thomas Person Berry and his new wife Sarah Lunsford Berry went with this wagon train. The thing that makes me think this may have happened is the long period of time when Thomas and Sarah were married and when their first child was born. Thomas and Sarah were married 28th of September 1831 and their first son was born 5 years later in 1836. Theodrick and Elizabeth Franklin had a son, Henry Berry Franklin, born in Alabama in 1835. Hannah Cate Berry may also have gone to Alabama with her children and grandchildren. If this is what happened then Thomas Person Berry, his wife, Sarah Lunsford Berry, and his mother, Hannah Cate Berry, returned to North Carolina before 1836.

Parents: John Berry and Mary Howell Berry

She was born on April 20, 1839 in Alabama and died in

Galveston Texas on June 5th 1917. We were able to find Sarah Berry Dippold’s grave in 2006 while I was staying in Houston for medical reasons. The grave is located in the Trinity Episcopal Church Cemetery which is located in Galveston Texas. She is buried in Block # 100 plot 18 of that Cemetery. I was unable to locate her husband but he may still be buried there. This Cemetery has been raised several times, as it keeps sinking they haul in more dirt. Each family is responsible to see that their relatives headstones are

raised to the new level. If the family does not assume that responsibility the grave is covered with dirt and is no longer visible. The sinking of the Island is caused by removal of oil from the surface below. Sarah was married five times. This was during the period of the civil war and may be the reason so many of them died. She married her first husband Hiram Howard on November 24th 1853.

Sarah married her second husband, Francis M. McClure on January 5th 1859. On May 18th 1863 Sarah married her third husband Robert A. Taylor. Sarah married her fourth husband, Henry B. Stoneham on August 29 1868. She married her fifth husband Henrick Dippold on February 15th 1880.
