Marriage Notes for HENRY BERRY and UNKNOWN:
I do not believe that Cinthia, the wife of Henry Berry as shown on the 1850 Arkansas census is Martha's mother.  Cinthia was 42 on that census, making her born in 1808, and Martha was born in 1817.  Also, Martha's birthplace, as well as the birthplace of her brother, James David Berry, is shown as being Alabama.
