Hi, Your William B. Berry family was residing in Dallas, TX in the 1920 census. A death record for William B. Berry residing in Dallas reflects that he died of a gun shot wound on 26 Sep 1925. He was buried in Kemp, Texas. Informant on death certificate Mrs. William B. Berry. At the time he had been residing in Dallas for 16 years. The census of 1920 reflects wife as Jennie E., born in TN. Perhaps a second wife, since the boys entries reflected their father as born S. C. and mother as born Georgia. S.
