In the next 1870 Census notice that this Mary J Berry lived in the same township as Virgil did.
I did a little research and found that the Town of Caroline had a population of 1,297 in 1870
You can find this information by typing: (The url is very long)
"population by township 1870 1910 Arkansas" without the quotes.
Mary J and Virgil had a very good chance of getting to know each other in this small town.
In the next 1870 US Census Virgil Linder is found living in the same small town as Mary Jane

The information that names Herman Berry and Delila Elwood as the
parents of Mary Jane Berry came from information given to Ruth
Linder from Roy Dollar. Who was a cousin to Johnnie Linder. The
Dollar's and the Linder's had grandmothers that were sisters and
were both Berry's. Johnnie Linder was John Lee Linder's son and
also a brother to Fannie Rose Linder. This source was "personal
knowledge".
On August 2, 2002 Ruth Linder said Herman was born about 1803 He
married about abt 1836, He died abt 1859 His wife Delila was born
abt 1807 and died abt 1861 Mary Jane was born abt 1855 in Tenn
and died abt 1891 in Arkansas.
There is another Mary Jane Berry that has been mistaken for our Mary Jane Berry. Here is a source from
Ancestry.com that disproves that relationship. This Mary lived only 6 days.
