Biography

"When it comes to the identity of James Berry's spouse(s), there is a greater level of agreement, although the data is still not entirely clear. The names of two women, Elizabeth Davis and Anne Elizabeth Enfield, are repeatedly mentioned in the various sources, so it seems quite likely that James Berry was married twice. Three sources record the name of his wife as being Elizabeth Davis.(7,93,95) One source notes that he was married twice (to Elizabeth Davis and Elizabeth Enfield) with the latter being listed as the second wife(96), while another researcher came to the conclusion that Elizabeth Davis was the second wife.(101 The Augusta County, Virginia[,] court records (which are the only primary source documents), verify that Elizabeth was the spouse of James Berry, although there is no mention of her maiden name.(21) At this point, no determination can be absolutely made concerning the order of marriage (if indeed there is more than one wife), nor of any maiden names.
