In 1850, all of the children are living with  Absolum and Lavicia Berry

This family is not one whom I have found to be easily traced, apparently Hugh and his wife died before  the 1850 census, and thus I  found  several names  in the 1850 and 1860 census unknown to me, but information shared from Rozier Dedwyler  has  given us the  following  information,  along with the census records, and cemetery records I have  found  for  these  families.

They had at least 12 children, the known children of Hugh Berry are:

+15 i.
Willis Berry3   born in 1830 in Mississippi, and died in 1863, probably while in the service of Co A 39th Inf. CSA, his burial in Eli Myers Cemetery, Simpson Co Mississippi
+16 ii. Absolum Berry  born c1828, and apparently died before 1860
  17 iii.  Arcada Berry  born c1832 
+18 iv.
Frances "Franky" Berry  born c1838, and died between 1870-80, burial in Eli Myers Cemetery, Simpson Co Mississippi in an unmarked grave
  19 v. Joseph Berry  born c1840  -I have been unable to locate him in Mississippi in 1860-

In 1850, a 20 year old William Berry is living in the home of John Briggs.  He may also be a child of Hugh Berry.
