Henry Crawford Berry married Helen Ramsay Baker
« on: Saturday 30 March 19 10:04 GMT (UK) »
Looking for information, documents, etc. on both the above and the children below Please.
As per above, the children are listed below, according to the death certificate of Helen. No other information is available.  I was told as a very young child that Muriel Grace was the youngest child, by 15 years, but this does not appear to be true.

Helen Ramsay Baker christened in South Africa in Johannesburg on 16 Aug 1893, with parents given as Anne Sophia and John Ramsay Honman.  Honman was perhaps her stepfather, date of birth of Helen estimated at 5 July 1882.

1.   Eileen Allanah Berry
2.   Olive Margaret Wynn, born Berry
3.   Muriel Grace Whitfield, born Berry approximately April 1922
4.   Norman Henry Berry
5.   Howard Andrew Berry
6.   Douglas Lewis Berry, who died on 28 Aug 1958

Henry and Helen met in South Africa.  I am looking for information about the marriage, and more particularly whether the other Berry's had children, dates of birth, of everyone, as well as any other information about this line of the Berry family.  I have hit a brick wall here in South Africa.

Douglas Lewis Berry, who died on 28 Aug 1958 was what age?   2?   97?


You need to put some sort of timeframe to when they married etc

Remember not to post details of living, or possibly living, people.
