This picture was taken in 2005 when My wife and I visited John Allen and his wife on our way down to Cullman to the 2005 Berry Nix reunion. John Allen Berry is a descendant of Thomas and Sarah Cate Berry and these cards were handed down through the family. John also bought these Cards from a Berry Estate sale . Are they the same cards that Thomas Berry bought at his father-in-law’s estate sale in 1803 for two shillings, 1 pence?
Robert Berry Sr sold William and Ule Waggoner Stagg 200 acres of land on February 27th 1807
