She was born in Oxford, Ohio, in 1839 and was full-grown before the Civil war broke out. She remembered that great struggle vividly. Her husband, John Berryhill, was in the northern army. At the close of the war, she was married and emigrated to central Kansas, while the country was still so wild that the men carried their guns when they went to church, because of Indians. Later in the '80's, they emigrated to the Leadville district in Colorado. After residing a few years, they emigrated to Granite, Montana in 1890, which was then a boom camp.
