George Enoch BERRY Jr.
Page last updated 4 August 2022.
Birth: 1917 in Friendly, Prince George’s County, Maryland
Death: 26 July 1923 in Washington, D.C. (see * note)
Burial: 29 July 1923 at Providence United Methodist Church Cemetery, Friendly, Prince George’s County, Maryland, Plot E-4
Headstone Text: GEORGE BERRY / 1917 - 1924
* There is a discrepancy on when George died. His headstone shows 1924, but the funeral home records (and a newspaper article) give his death as 26 July 1923. Since the funeral home records also state that he was buried at Rock Creek Cemetery, he might have been moved to Providence in 1924 causing the difference.
