Attached above are documents found in the North Carolina Archives which demonstrate William Berry, Sr.'s efforts in the Revolutionary War. The document is dated March 15, 1781. The document is signed by David Vance and Michael Montgomery, presumably after the passing of William Berry, Sr.
The text reads as follows:
We, or either of us, our, Heirs, Execrs' Admin. or assignees hereby promise to pay or cause to be paid to William Moore & Elizabeth Berry Executors of the Estate of William Berry, Dec'd or their certain attorney, heirs, executors, admit., or assigns the just and full sum of two thousand six hundred & sixty six pounds current and lawful money of the State of North Carolina, to be paid twelve months after the date hereof for value record of them.
