  • Notes 
    • Samuel died as a boy of 14-15, beat up and killed by two Irish boys per Peggy Berly, per Nesta, Stanley and others. Peggy said that he was beat up behind a drug store in a "bad" area of town.
      DOB and place of birth is from William Berly's immigration papers.

      DOB is suspect as William Berly and family arrived in the US on or about July 1, 1904. If this is true, then Sam Berly was born after their arrival in the United States. Residence at time of death: 56 West Eagle Street, Boston, MA

      Irwin Berly remember that he(Irwin) was 6 years old when this occurred.

      Not to be confused with the Samuel Berly that is the son Louis Berly, who died at the age of 4-6 months of age.
