Brimmer who was born in Wales Circa 1900.(Married Marion Payne c 1920-5)His father was also called Robert T. Brimmer born I understand somewhere in Norfork, England, date unknown. I do not know much about any of the family that went to the States only that my Grandfathers cousin was Ernest Brimmer a.k.a. Richard Dix and that they never met.My Grandfather was also due to go to the States but for some unknown reason he never went, good job because he was due to go on the Titanic!! All my Grandfathers brothers(Four I think) emmigrated to Australia sometime in the twenties but he came to live in Luton where his wifes family had moved to. His sister Maudy stayed in Treherbert giving birth to two daughters one of whom went back to live there in later life and has now passed on, one of her daughters living there being the last link that the family has with the place. Us Brimmers in the UK now mainly live in Luton although unfortunately time is ! taking its toll and we are becoming a dwindling band.
