I am searching for the place of burial of Benjamin Berry (1804-1890). Also, I am searching for the places of death and burial of his three wives.

Benjamin was born 10 Oct 1804 in Guildhall, Essex Co., Vermont. He was the son of John and Elizabeth ELLIOTT Berry. Benjamin died December 1890 in Richford, Tioga Co., New York.

Benjamin married (1) Pamela HOLDEN in 1831. Pamela HOLDEN was the daughter of Benjamin and Emma FARWELL HOLDEN. Pamela was born 20 May 1811 in Somerset Co., Maine. Benjamin and Pamela had two daughters, Anna Sophronia Berry, born 12 Oct 1831, and Matilda Berry born circa 1833. Pamela HOLDEN Berry died 12 Jul 1836.

Benjamin married (2) Angeline GROSS on 25 Aug 1836 in Richford, Tioga Co., New York. Angeline was born 11 Feb 1813 in Smithville, , New York. Benjamin and Angeline had one son, Eli Berry, born 1845. Angeline GROSS Berry died 12 Apr 1883 likely near Richford, New York.

Benjamin married (3) Peggy (surname unknown) Rockefeller in June 1883, likely in Tioga Co., New York. Peggy was the widow of William Rockefeller. Benjamin and Peggy had no known children.

Any information about the place of burial of Benjamin Berry (1804-1890) would be much appreciated. Also, information about the places of death and burial of his three wives would be helpful.
