Ewing Berry 1795 - 1876
. 2 Amelia"
Millie"
Yoakum 1795 -
(I am looking for info on a James Ray who married a
Amelia "
Milly"
Yocum (
Amelia died 1 Dec 1783 in
Mercer County,
Virginia or
Kentucky) on 5 Jul 1781 in
Mercer County,
Virginia or
Kentucky. If anyone can help with info on either of these families please email me.
You are looking for
Milly Yoakum who married in 1781 to James Ray. The only
Millie Yoakum I have is listed above, daughter of Matthew and she was born after the death of the
Milly you are referring to. She was probably named after the
Milly you are researching.

If you find anything on Elizabeth
Ewing Berry, I would
would appreciate it if you would share that information. I'm having a difficult time sorting out my
Berry family that inter-married with the Yoakums.
As far as Sarah
Yoakum who married John Stevens in
Lincoln Co., VA in 1783, the only Sarah I have that would
be the correct age would be Sarah b. 1759, daughter of
Valentine "
Felty"
Yoakum, who was killed in 1763 at Muddy
Creek. I don't know who Sarah married, could this be John's wife?
You asked: I am looking for info on a Lavina
Wright who married a Matthew
Matthias Yocum on 12 Apr 1784 in
Mercer County,
Virginia or
Kentucky. If anyone can help with info on either of these families please email me.
I am researching the
Wright family in VA and would like
to know the answer to this question. I'm looking for the
family of Alice "
Allie"
Wright, b.1792 in VA. Always looking
for a family connection!
