Cherryville

The third named Barry farm, after Manorowen and Jerpoint. Harriet Louisa Barry, eighteen, died here of typhoid on 7 September 1912 after thirty days' illness and was carried back to Manorowen to be buried. Her father, who signed the form, gave his own residence as Manorowen — so Cherryville is somewhere the family worked rather than lived, or another Barry household entirely. The coordinates are approximate.
