Christina; Caroline; Matilda Bahr NYC/LI/CT 1900
Looking for history of Matilda's family. She was married to Rev. Dr. Robert Frederick Berry, a Congregational minister and inventor c. 1906-7. He is variously found preaching in Wilton, CT, Millers Place, LI, and NYC. Christina believed to have raised Caroline and Matilda in Germany and they likely came to NY prior to Ellis Island records. The group lived together as a family unit. Christina and Matilda were murdered in 1917 and Caroline is found on the 1920 census living in Richmond Hills, Borough of Queens, and working in NYC as a secretary. Matilda's three children with Rev. Berry are found on the 1920 census in an orphanage on LI.
