  • Name Eliza Jane Gentry 
    Birth 12 Nov 1844  Berryville, Carroll, Arkansas, United States Find all individuals with events at this location 
    Gender Female 
    Family Search ID K84V-3KD 
    Ω Census wife 1 Jun 1880  Prairie Township, Carroll, Arkansas, United States Find all individuals with events at this location  [1] 
    • Also in the house were Eliza Pearson and Linette Pearson, mother and sister to Sarah Pearson, who married John Austin Bussey.

      Based on Census items for Eliza Pearson, she married the unknown Mr. Pearson, had 3 children in Tennessee, came to Arkansas, had another child (Sarah), and then was widowed. Seems likely that Mr. Pearson was a friend of the Denney/Bussey family, probably some other intermarriages in there, and the widowed Eliza Pearson was provided safety and housing via family and friend connections in the Carroll County community.
