WEEKS, BERRYHILL

Without the information contained in the notebook that was kept by John Franklin Weeks we Weeks family researchers would know little about Benjamin Weeks and our Weeks heritage. So many of the early records are missing or incomplete, it is possible without the Weeks family data that was handed down to us we would have lost our Weeks roots. John Franklin Weeks, a childless individual, keep a Weeks family notebook, which was handed through the generations. The following is written in the notebook keep by John Franklin Weeks: Children of Benjamin Weeks:William md a “Miss Wiggins.”; Charley md (1) a “Miss Upton,” (2) Nancy Berryhill;James md Frances Goff; Bathseba md William Matthews Catherine md a “McCullar, or McClough.”; Elizabeth md Aquilla Matthews, Sr.; Mary md Nathaniel Moseley; Margaret md William Berryhill; and Lelia md Alexander Berryhill. Would like to talk to anyone who has information about any of the above individuals.

Seeking information on Col. Joseph H. Bradford, born 1800, son of John Bradford (1771 Burke County, NC – 1852)and Ann Goodwin (1777-1862), grandson of Joseph Bennett Bradford (1738-1828). Col. Joseph H. Bradford married Maria Catherine Spyker in 1829 in Pleasant Retreat, near Winchester, in Franklin County, Tennessee, according to the reconstructed marriage records. Soon after the marriage, I believe they moved to Coosa County, Alabama where Joseph had a mill and cotton factory. They had a daughter, Maria Catherine Bradford, born 1832, probably in Coosa County, Alabama. After his wife’s death, Joseph married Adeline and had other children. Can anyone help with the Spykers? Any more information on Joseph H. Bradford?
