Hi,
Bertha Richards was my great aunty. She was the partner of my great uncle, Thomas Victor Allen (known as Tommy), they in fact, did not marry, although Bertha did use the name Allen. Tommy Allen was my grandmother's youngest brother and they originated from Nothampton, he was already married to a french lady and had a daughter, Vicky when he met Bertha. I,as a child, regularily use to stay with Uncle Victor (Tommy) and Bertha in Hungerford, and once stayed in the alligator's cage !! (not with them in it thankfully ! ) and I used to go with my grandmother to visit them in their fairshow when they kept large snakes.
Betty Allen, their daughter, died a few years ago and was in our local hospital in Kettering when she became ill. She had been staying with my mother at the time. Although my mother has a few photographs of them, I would appreciate any further information if you have any.
