Irene Thanks for this. It sort of confirms my view that Bertha was born in Leigh, I need to get to Dorchester to look at the records asap to confirm. I'm working backwards as follows: Bertha May Baker, daughter of Edwin Charles Baker (b 1888 Bishops Caundle) and Bertha Ann Loveless (b 1886 Leigh?) married 1914 at Bishops Caundle I have one relation living in Dorchester who I'm trying to trace so maybe they can shed more light on the Loveless connection. thanks Derek On 30 Aug 2004, at 01:24, Eye wrote: > Hello again Derek > I wondered if you had this from the 1901 census > > Name Age Where Born Administrative County Civil Parish Occupation > > Bertha Loveless 15 Dorset Leigh Dorset Melbury Bubb General Domestic > > Regards > Irene > > -----Original Message----- > From: Donna King [mailto:emily04@rogers.com] > Sent: Saturday, August 28, 2004 8:37 AM > To: TOLPUDDLE-L@rootsweb.com > Subject: Re: [TOL] Tolpuddle Martyrs > > Derek - Sorry I don't have a record of a Bertha Ann Loveless in my > tree. > > Also I couldn't find a record of Bertha Ann Loveless in the 1891 Census > for > Dorset - Volume 13 Bere Regis & District.
