Zebedee BERRY - 27 Jan 1885 - 18 Nov 1938
"Mr. Zebedee Berry, 53, owner of the Pageville Roller Mill and one
of the most prominent citizens of South Barren, died at his home in the
Pageville community last Friday morning around 1:30 o'clock of a heart
attack. Apparently in good health, his passing came as a distinct shock
to friends and relatives throughout the county.
"Mr. Berry was a member of a pioneer family of this county. He
resided in Glasgow four years while deputy jailer under Mr. W. T. Berry
and moved to the Pageville community 15 years ago where he entered the
milling business.
"A man of intellect, he took an active interest in current events,
and held far-sighted opinions upon measures which concerned the citizens
of his community religiously, morally and politically and was ever ready
to voice his views and follow his convictions.
"He is survived by his wife, Mrs. Annie Berry, a brother, Mr. Gus
Berry, of Allen county; two sisters, Mrs. Susan Maury and Mrs. Mary
Britt, all of Barren county.
"Funeral services were conducted at the Mt. Olivet Church, near
Austin last Sunday morning at 10:30 o'clock, the Rev. I. A. Wilson in
charge. Interment was in the cemetery there."
Undated Glasgow KY newspaper, buried at Austin Cemetery.
