Hi Cynthia,
I'm not related to your family, however, I did find some info on them. I found three people who had your family in the family trees on www.ancestry.com and asked them to contact you.
Census records 1840 and earlier do not list all the family members.
A George McFry was listed in the 1830 Big River, Jefferson Co., MO Census.
A George McFry was listed in the 1840 Galena Township, Franklin Co., MO Census.
George McFry was issued 1 Oct 1840 in MO land. Source: U S General Land Office Records 1796-1907, www.ancestry.com. I can email the document to you if you're interested.
On 10 April 1843 George McFry, MO was issued 80 acres per document 11331. Same Source as above.
In 1850 George McFry and family were living in District 42, Jefferson Co., MO.
George, b. NC [what appears on Census], 45 yrs old, farmer.
Theodotia, wife, b. TN, 42.
Lucinda C., b. MO, 19.
Tina M., b. MO, 13.
Peter R., b. MO, 11.
George W., b. MO, 7.
In 1860 George, Theodocia and George W. were living in Central, Jefferson Co., MO.
George, b. SC, 57, superintendent poor farm.
Theodocia, wife, b. KY [what appears on Census], 52.
George W., b. MO, 17.
The rest of the names appear to be names of people on the poor farm.
A George W. McFry married 10 March 1867, Jefferson Co., MO Miss Elizabeth Bryen. Source: MO Marriage Index 1805-2002, www.ancestry.com. This appears to be George's son.
A George W. McFry filed for Civil War Pension in MO. Widow=Catharine McFry. Source: Civil War Pension Index: General Index to Pension Files 1861-1934, www.ancestry.com. There isn't enough info for me to tell if this George is related to your or not.
George and Theodotia in 1870 were living in Big River, Jefferson Co., MO.
George, b. SC, 69, farmer.
Dosia, b. MO [what appeared on Census], 61.
George is written up in the "History of Franklin, Jefferson, Washington, Gasconade Counties Missouri: From Earliest Time to Present". You can obtain this book by inter-library loan from your local library.
The Bruns Family History Site shows that George Washington McFry, b. 1802, SC, d. March 2, 1879, Jefferson, Missouri. Theodotia's maiden name was Romine, b. 1809, TN and d. February 1872, Jefferson, MO. They had a daughter Melinda M. McFry, b. 1837, MO and d. MO but date unknown. This gives you some more clues on where to look to verify this info.
An Andy Fry was living in Linn, Oregon Territory in 1850. He was 19, b. abt. 1831, NY. Source: FamilySearch, http://pilot.familysearch.org/ . Don't know if this was your Andrew John McFry or not.

Information on a death record is only as good as the person providing it. My girlfriend thought she knew the answers to the questions when her father died but she found later than she had provided incorrect info.
If you don't have a copy of his obituary, you can contact Random Acts Genealogical Kindness. Go to www.raogk.org, read instructions, choose Washington, choose Grays Harbor and look for Bob, Nancy or Barbara.
You can obtain a copy of any obituary published in WA from the Washington State Library, www.secstate.wa.gov/library/ask.aspx . They will look it up in the newspaper microfilm at no charge. However it takes about two weeks. Successful Searching!
