Thread: Bertha Rimmer

Hi,



I'm trying to find information on a lady who would be my grand mother. She was born Bertha Rimmer and married my grandad when her name would have changed to Bertha dunwoodie. My grand parents split up and i'm lead to believe that Bertha re-married but i don't know her new name. Bertha would be 84 now. When she was living with my grandad they were living in the liverpool area, i believe down long fellow street.



I'm interested in building my family tree and would like to know if Bertha had anymore children.



Any help would be appreciated.



Thanks



Nicola

Hi.

Marriage for Bertha. If you look for births on BMD after 1946 you may come up with children. Do you know the christen name of her first husband?

Found these two, do they ring any bells? J is they middle name and Joseph was her husbands name.

This might by her next marriage :



Dunwoodie Bertha, Addison Liverpool N 10d 715 3Q 1959



Husbands name George.

Found this birth. Child reg Addison mothers name Rimmer. If she remarried in 1959 I would have expected to have found the mother surname as Dunwoodie. So you might need to look for the mothers name as Rimmer/Dunwoodie

Hi



Thank you so much for your help. Joseph Dunwoodie was my grand father and he and Bertha had 2 children together, John and David Dunwoodie.

I know that her new husbands name was George so this must be correct. Were you able to tell that she re-married in 1959?

I looked for marridges for Liverpool and couldn't find anything. I was looking for her surname to be Dunwoodie but maybe she had changed this back to her maiden name.

Could i ask where this info came from and then i can look?



Thanks again for your help x

Hi Nicola



The two references below are I believe Bertha Rimmer / Dunwoodie ('s)marriages. You can use these to get the marriage cert. This will show thier parents names and enable you to start tracing you tree back. The others refer to the childrens birth cert which should show both parents names. You can order them online go to this web site and follow instructions. Last time I order it was £7.50 per cert.
