Post by m***@myway.comPost by b***@earthlink.netBarry is an only child. Edna divorced Harold Kelliher after he came
back from serving his country in WWII. Barry was around 2 years
of age. Barry started out as Barry Alan Pincus
then when he turned 13 he had his last name changed to Manilow. Now why
his family got
rid of his middle name of Alan is beyond me.
**************************************************************
Linda,
Edna never had any children other than Barry but his father married
another woman who had a son and daughter from a previous marriage, and
they had a son named Tim together so Barry does have a half brother. I
don't think his family got rid of his middle name when Barry's last
name was changed to Manilow, he just chooses not to use it.
Crystal
Barry's autobiography has the correct information.

I just received an email from someone.
I have not read, nor do I intend to read Pat Butler's
unauthorized book on Barry Alan Pincus.I do not consider
Pat Butler a reliable source of (Barry Manilow)information.
I own 2 hardcover copies of
Barry's autobiography.Barry's autobiography has the correct
information.
I suggest reading Sweet Life:Adventures On The Way To Paradise.
I specifically recommend reading The Early Years-In the Beginning...
If you are in a hurry then go to pages:8,10,and 18.His autobiography
does mention Willie having children from a previous marriage.In his
autobiography,Barry did not specifically mention the name Tim.
Throughout my 26 years as a fan,I have not heard Barry discuss Tim.
I also have not currently heard him discuss how close he is or was
with
his stepfather's children.I have not read,or heard anything
regarding that part of Barry Manilow's private life.It does not mean
what all of you have said on this board is wrong.
It just means I have not heard Barry Manilow divulge any of that.
I am not a Barry Manilow expert.I have never proclaimed and professed
to
be. In the past I have heard Barry discuss his being the only child.
When he appeared on the Ryan Seacrest show,he autographed someone's
CD.
He showed us viewers,that it was autographed by Barry Alan Pincus.
Alot of you are more knowledgeable than I am.
I have two more things to say,before I close.Pages:17-18,in his
autobiography discuss his last name being changed to Manilow.
Awhile back someone on this board said Barry was married 5 times.
The chapter on Susan(-pages:34,35,36,&37)discuss that he and Susan
were married a total of 4 times.
The End
