Bertram family in Wellington County, Ont
« on: Monday 01 December 14 17:20 GMT (UK) »
I'm looking for any information on the Bertram family who lived in Arthur township, Wellington North, Ontario.
Father John died in 1925 & wife Helen (Ellen) in 1922 at Lot 19 Walton Street.
Three of their children look like they lived all their lives in or around Arthur.
George b.19 Dec 1872--d.23 June 1935 ( married Mary Edwards on 14 Dec 1927 @ Mount Forest)
Agnes Mary b. 19 Dec 1876 ---d 1955
Thomas b. 16 Sept 1879----d.1960     All thee were born in Arthur & are buried in the cemetery just outside Arthur.(Greenfield?)
There was a further three children, Elizabeth, James & Henry but I have managed to trace them OK.
Hopefully someone from Arthur has knowledge of this family. Thanks

Thanks Sandra,
As you see from my last old post on the same subject I had been to the cemetery a few years ago & photographed some of the headstones. Henry A.Bertram died on the 20th Dec 1894 in Klerkdorp Hospital. S.A. I have his death Notice which,strangely does not state the cause of death. His occupation was an 'Amalgamator' in the mines.
I was hoping that there was still someone in Arthur who knows something of the three who remained there. George, who married Mary Edwards were probably too old to have family.
James the oldest son ended up in Mexico & I have been in contact with two of his Granddaughters.
Thank you for the reply
