The Dink Berry & Laura Flossie Jenkins family Submitted by: Solveig Berry (SolveigMB@aol.com) My husband's grandfather was Dink Berry. Born 1877 in Etoile, Barren County KY to William Franklin Berry and Mary Elizabeth Matthews. Dink's father died before 1880 census, and Dink and his widowed mother moved to Marion County, AR shortly after that. Several of her Matthews siblings had already moved there. Mary Elizabeth married William Gowan "Dock" McCracken around 1883 in Marion county. Dink taught school in Marion County for many years, and for some time was the registrar and county assessor. This a picture of Dink Berry and his family. The picture was taken around 1911. ![]() Return to Marion Co Home Page
