| Anecdote* | | His grandson, Dr. Mark D. Berry, Ed.Dl of Prattville, Alabama, reports that he has found "no" paperwork for an official adoption. The story goes that the Berrys (Ida and James) lost their 6 month old child and wanted to adopt. So, the Berrys showed up at the doorstep of my grandfather and said, "I heard you had a son you want to adopt". History was made in that moment and my grandfather traveled home with the Berrys. That was a different day. It was probably the best thing because my great grandfather was not the nicest person as I have read and heard from my father when he was living. I have read also that it was later when he was adopted.1 |
