I'm researching the Berry family, that I suspect may have some native ancestry.
I'm not sure what tribe that the Surname Berry can be found among but my guess what be possibly Tuscarora.
My ancestor Sidley Berry may have been born in North eastern N.C., and was living in Lincoln Co. N.C. possibly between 1820-1840.
In the 1850 census of Gaston Co. N.C. she is listed with her husband John Massey & children, the census taker lists her name as Citney Massey.
By 1860 Sidley/Citney & John Massey are living in York Co. S.C.
If anyone can help me with any information on the Berry family, and who the parents of Sidley/Citney Berry may have been. I would greatly appreciate it.
