On Harry’s maternal side, we can reliably trace the family to his great grandparents, HoseaRowe Kerley (1802-1879), a farmer in Vergennes, Vermont, and Mary (or Mariah) Beecher (1807-1885)of Kent, Connecticut. Married on 7 March 1827 in Kent, they had eleven children (four of whom died ininfancy); David, their fifth, was born on 9 January 1835.x At 19, he moved from Vermont to Illinois,where, in 1864, he was commissioned and served with the Union forces in the 114th Illinois InfantryRegiment.xi David married, was widowed, and, in January 1861, married again, this time to Sarah AnnElizabeth (or Eliza) Marshall (born in Virginia on 23 August 1835), with whom he had ten children; MaryJulia, their fifth child and first daughter, was born 10 February 1869. (Six of David’s children, withfamilies of their own, were to live at some point in Peck, Kansas.)
