Census
1900 census of Lincoln Co., West Virginia, Harts Creek district, enumerated 4 June, lists on p. 2B as family #31:
Berry, John W., 53, b. Feb 1847, WVa WVa Va, carpenter; Sarah, wife, 41, b. Oct 1858, married 24 years, motherr of 11 children, 10 living; John E., son, 23, b. Apr 1877; Dasie, dau, 18; b. Nov 1881; Manta, dau, 13, b. Aug 1886; Enoch, son, 13, b. May 1887; Garnet, dau, 11, b. Jan 1889; Nora, dau, 9, b. Feb 1891; Elbert, son, 7, b. Feb 1893; Annie, dau, 5, b. Feb 1895; Pearl, dau, 1, b. Mar 1899. All children born WVa WVa WVa.
Since there are only 9 months between Aug 1886 and May 1887, it is likely that Manta was really born in Aug 1885, which would be consistent with her death record as well as the 1910 through 1930 censuses.
