Calling the Berry Family

I've mentioned before that I occasionally rescue ancestor pictures that I find in local antique stores when there is identifying information on the reverse. Once in awhile I find a real treasure that some family historian would love to have. Friday's trip to the Antique Mall in Round Rock produced one of those treasures - a three generational portrait that I would love to be able to reunite with someone in the Berry family.

From left to right is John Sharp Berry, John Sharp Berry II, and Dr. Franklin King Berry. From what I can gather with some idle searches on Ancestry.com, this Berry family has its roots in Kentucky. It's a great picture and I hope someone comes along that can claim it.
