...
Of the daughters of Cross Roads Henry Berry, Mary, the eldest, married Stephen Fore, 20th February, 1845. The writer was one of his best men upon that pleasant occasion. Stephen Fore and 'wife are both dead; he died 11th March, 1881 ; Mrs. Fore died some four or five years ago ; the fruits of their marriage were five daughters and four sons, viz: Flora, Amanda, Florence, Annie and Ida ; the sons are George, Oliver Cromwell, J. Russell and Clarence.
...
The second son of Stephen Fore is J. Russel Fore ; he and the fourth son, Clarence Fore, have never married; they live together on the father's old -homestead ; one of James D. Bethea's daughters, their niece, stays with them and keeps house. Each of these boys has his own place, runs his own farm, and makes his own money. J. Russel is reputed to have money ahead; he is much older than Clarence, and has been working for himself much longer, and hence has accumulated more money. ;
