Research Note:  Lieut. M W Berryhill was a Veteran of the Florida War and the Southern Confederacy and was at the Battle of Pea Ridge. He served under Private Capt. Roberts, Tenn. Mtd. Vols., Fla. War, also. He had had two land warrants and was a teamster. He drew a pension and lived in Barry County most of his life. K. C. Broyles was a daughter of George & Catherine (Vaught) Broyles. This photo was touched up - he wore a patch on his left eye, because he fell in the fire and burned it so badly that he couldn't see out of it. He was an elliptic and was subject to seizures. Since that disease is passed on through the female line none of his descendants were effected with it.
