Other Wayne County residents, Charity Bryant and Mary Wiggs, deposed that they were acquainted with Phereby for 60 to 65 years and that she had been William Burnham's apprentice [3 July & 1 June 1853 Wayne County Depositions]. Phereby was probably the "other free" person counted in William Burnham's Duplin County household in 1790 [NC:191].
