In the 1881 census it shows a Berry family living at 11 Bateson row,Headingley cum Burley,Leeds The family consisted of Elijah Samuel Berry born Holbeck c.1839 Head Sarah Jane Berry(nee Robinson) born Holbeck c.1843 wife Alfred Safford Berry born Holbeck 1876 son Edith Berry born Holbeck 1875 daughter George Berry born Holbeck c.1870 son Mary Elizabeth Berry born Holbeck 1867 daughter Sarah Jane Berry born Holbeck 1865 daughter Walter Berry born Holbeck 1870 son. Any info on this family would be appreciated as I am trying to trace info on my greatgrandfather George Berry Poss married an Edith had children George,Clifford,Lilian,Hilda,Violet and adopted a Lily. It is possible that part of the family moved after 1901 census to the Sheffield area and killed during WW2 bombings.My father recalls this but can't remember full details. George is my fathers,grandfather and greatgrandfathers name. Many thanks Steven
