Question

Why when researching the surname PEPPER does the name BERRY appear?

Comments

Where were you researching?

Just ignore my question. I see now that if you put Pepper into the surname finder here that Barry is one of the options that comes up and that if you click on Barry you also get Berry.

Answer 1

Somewhere on Wikitree a person surnamed Pepper has an "other Last name" of Barry (or the other way around) Alternate name searches and the list of names in the right upper corner of the family GENEALOGY page (eg. https://www.wikitree.com/genealogy/Pepper) are generated using the other last name field.

Answer 2

Where do your Pepper's live that you are researching??

Answer 3

Probably from Peppers with ancestors or in-laws named Berry.  Can you give a link or screen shot with an example?
