Henry Gadberry
GADBERRY, HENRY
Letter.
....My great-grandfather was Henry Gadberry born 1842 somewhere in or between Jackson and Schuyler County, Ill. as his parents, Andrew Jackson and Anna ( ) Gadberry were living in 1840 in the former and 1850 latter Illinois counties. I have traced them successfully down to Anderson Co., Kansas where Henry married Susan Mary Warren in 1864 and both were living when they sold their land there in 1873 to move to parts unknown. The next trace is that I find Henry, living with his new wife Jane Sealy, in 1880 Collin County, Texas and were living in Pickens County, Chickasaw Nation by 1890 (now Stephens Co., Okla.).
We have never known when Susan Mary Gadberry died, or where....
I found eight documents (deeds/releases) on a G. P. Gadberry, one for a lot in Rowlett Creek Cemetery, Lot 14, Blk. 14, purchased in 1898-the deeds run from 1892 thru 1907. Marriage records run from 1895 thru 1964 on Gadberry surnames. Three males Samuel King Gadberry 1915, Amos 1952, B. J. 1964 and females marrying O. S. Chasting 1895, Elbert Akin, W. A. Adams, Jr., Dallas Ellison, Luther Duncan, Shelby Tood, Gilbert Lorance, Anthony Hall, Odie Carr, Judith Baker.
According to family tradition Henry Gadberry had a son, George, whom my uncles thought had been “killed in a gun accident when a young boy.” This George would have been born 1871 according to the Collin Co. Census. I am now wondering if the family account could be wrong and George be the G. P. of Collin County records....
