Bertie was born in Upper Hale Surrey before 14 March 1880 which is the date of his christening. He is the son of John Harrington and Jane Hulcoop.
In 1907, Bertie emigrated to Canada, as had others in his immediate family and he settled in the Brantford Ontario area.
Research Notes
We are unable to definitively track Bertie beyond the 1911 Census, at which time he was 30 years old, single and residing with his parents in Brantford. We have seen reference to a record which indicates he married, but not until 1936. This alleged wedding was to Emily Adelaide Plumridge, and Bertie would have been about 55 years old at that time.
We do not know the date/location of Bertie's death.
