email from Bob Scalf:
As a follow-up to my query regarding "Benjamin" versus
"Berryman" in your family tree, I check with "Chronicles
of the Scalf Family" by Henry P. Scalf, published in 1970.
A lot of branches of the family have been more thoroughly
research since Henry's book, but he was a newspaperman
and gave us a lot of detail about many of the people he
researched. Let me type some from page 163.
DECENDENTS OF GREENBERRY SCALF AND REBECCA PAGE SCALF
(John Sr. - Lewis - James - John)

Berryman Scalf, son of John Scalf, Sr., and Edeah Carlisle Scalf,
was born 1809, according to the 1850 Census of Washington County,
Tennessee. He was apprenticed in 1820 at the age of 11 years with six
brothers by the order of the Russell County, Virginia, court. To whom he
was apprenticed or "bound out" there is no record. He is variously called
Berry, Berryman and Greenberry in the records. We feel sure his correct
name was Berryman for he was married under that name.

Berry married Rebecca Page, November 17, 1831, in Washington
County, Tennessee. He was 19 years old and his wife was 18. James
Wheeler was bondsman. We learn nothing more of Berry Scalf until
he appears in the 1850 Washington County Census. At that time he
was living in the Eastern District of the county and there were eight
children in the family. Value of his property was listed at $85.00.

The census record upon which we rely to reconstruct the Berry
Scalf family, is as follows:

1963-2006 State Born
Berry Scalf Age 41 M. Farmer Virginia
Rebecca Scalf 40 F Tennessee
Jesse Scalf 18 M Student Tennessee
Nathan Scalf 15 M Student Tennessee
Martha J. Scalf 13 F Student Tennessee
Mark M. Scalf 12 M Tennessee
James Scalf 9 M Tennessee
Andrew Scalf 7 M Tennessee
William Scalf 5 M Tennessee
Henry Scalf 3 M Tennessee

At the time of the enumeration of the 1850 Washington County Census
there were several other Scalfs in the county but their place in the
family tree is uncertain. There was the family of William Scalf, age
28, farmer and Mary J. Scalf, his wife, age 20. Both were born
in Tennessee. Rebecca Scalf, age 25, born in Tennessee, was an
inmate of the household of Nat. Cash and Sarah Cash. There was
another William Scalf, this one age 18 years, living in the home of
George and Susan Crouch (Couch?). Betsy Scalf, age 36, had a
household of her own with 3 children. Sela Scalf, age 16 years,
born in Tennessee, was residing in the home of William and Phebe
Guinn.

Rebecca Page Scalf was probably a sister to Susanna Page who married
Simpson Carter, July 5, 1932, in Washington County, Tennessee,
for we find Berry Scalf named as bondsman. A Scalf marriage of
Washington County on September 2, 1825, was that of William Moon
to Mahala Scalf, with Mark Anderson as bondsman. We are
unable to identify this Mahala Scalf and can only surmise that she
was probably a niece of John Scalf, Jr.

We are inclined to believe that Sela Scalf, who was residing in the
household of William Guinn in 1850 was a daughter of Berry and
Rebecca Page Scalf. Patsy Scalf, wife of John Scalf, Jr., in an
affidavit made in 1845 to support John Scalf, Sr., pension
application, stated Berry Scalf has eight children. The 1850
Census shows only seven children born by 1845 for Henry
was not born until 1847. Sela, age 16, a year older than Nathan
Scalf, had gone to stay with the Guinns, we feel sure. This was
not an uncommon custom of the time in case of large families.
