SEABERRY - HARPER
I'm looking for info on Raleigh SEABERRY and SUSAN/SUSANNAH SEABERRY.
The 1850 census shows them living in Scott County, MS. Susan was the mother;
Raleigh the oldest of 10 children; the youngest was Alexander b.1849 in
AL. Susan and some of her children, including Raleigh, lived in or around
Hillsboro and/or Harperville MS. It is thought that Susan's maiden name
might have been HARPER. Oral history has it that Susan was a sister of
George HARPER who is buried in Lebanon Cemetery near Hillsboro. Susan died
Oct 28, 1862. Where was she buried? Any light you may be able to shine
on Susan will be greatly appreciated
