Notes - "In 1866 Tillman Berry was the mail carrier between Frio County and San Antonio. On a stop in Atascosa County the creeks and rivers were flooded because of the hard rains, so he was asked to stay until the water went down, yet he was sure there woul be no trouble this time. He drowned while crossing Atascosa Creek. He is buried in Atascosa County."
