Bill Berry was a significant presence in the early days.  Alex Hood no longer remembers everyone who was at the first meeting, but supplied a list of very early members who might have been there, & Bill is among them.

Jamie Carlin who joined late 1954, & Frank Maher who joined late1955 say Bill never joined BMC, but that didn't stop him attending BMC events.
