Is anyone connected to  Edward Moife O'Callaghan Berry, born 1909 and adopted by the Berry family the same year. He was possibly born in Ireland or on a ship bound for New Zealand ?

Is anyone connected to  Edward Moife O'Callaghan Berry, born 1909 ...

Maria101

Hello Maria

There are a number of trees online (at the ancestry.com website), for Henry John BERRY ("adoptive father").   Several of these contain a good number of annexed "records" and one at least has a photo of Edward and his wife.
