It didn't come up under William so i searched under Alexander 

Strange search engine

WIlliam Berry born Kington Herefordshire in September 1870

So it could have been Alec Berry from Titley, muddled as passed down the generations.

Sounds very like it, EBN 

and Minnie never married

DSC needs to get the B Cert and ask Registrar to check to see if there were any siblings if she wants to trace the family to more recent times

[Gadget]

Given that Annie was 36/7 when Minnie was born, i wouldn't have thought that there would be too many more siblings.

it maybe work a search for Berry births 1901-1915 in Kington

Free BMD births showing for Kington:

Dec, 1901 - Minnie Isabella
Sept 1902 - Ronald John
Sept, 1906 - Edward

There was another Berry family - mother's name Frost (1913 birth)

Goodness me, Gadget and EBN you have been very busy since I was last on rootschat.
Thank you both for all your hard work. 

I don't know how I got the name Alec Titley, obviously I was told by family at some time.   

Do you think Ronald b1902 and Edward b1906 were Minnie's siblings?

Regards DSC

Hi DSC 

The only real way to find out about the parentage of Ronald and Edward is to get their birth certs 

The full GRO Refs are:

Ronald John Berry, Kington, Sept Quarter 1902, vol 6a Page 565

Edward Berry, Kington, Sept Quarter 1906, vol 6a Page 552


Further, it might be worth trying to find the local newspapers for around the time of Minnie's death to see if there were any obituaries. Also, I believe Minnie's will was mentioned in an earlier message on this thread. It might be worth checking that also, if it has not already been checked.
