Noticed your message concerning Berkey. I have the Berkey Book and see no
BERKLEY, however, there are Berkey, Berky, Birky, Burcky BURKY (mine-with
several variations in our line) Perkey, Barkey, so you see I would be
willing to bet it might be the same. Do you have a first name of any
Berkey, I will gladly look for you or anyone else. Thanks,
Mary
