BENJAMIN BERRYMAN and ELIZABETH his wife who was the late widdow of said Thomas Gilson ….



William DOUGLAS and Sarah BERRYMAN were married about 1731 in Westmorland/Stratford Co., Virginia. the bride came from a very prominent family in Westmorland county. He father, Maj. Benjamin BERRYMAN was the High Sheriff of the county and owned thousands of acres of land, therefore, it is very probably the marriage took place on her family plantation in Westmorland county.

The records from this county have suffered heavy losses durning the Revolutionary and Civil wars. To date no marriage, record havd been found. Sarah BERRYMAN (Daughter od Maj. Benjamin BERRYMAN Gentleman and Elizabeth NEWTON) was bon about 1713 in Westmorland Co., Virginia. She died after 1763 in Fauquier Co., Virginia. This line is directly traceable to Capt.Robert Bethethland who came to America in 1607 with Captain John Smith and founded Jamestown. The name "Bethetholon, Bethethie, etc. show up in almost all erly generations as female names. Benjamin T. Douglas Sr. had a daughter named Behethlon. This variance is probably due to the differences in prounciations.
