Bertram was the eldest son of Bertaram Horace Pinsent by his wife Lilian Mary (née Hynes). He was born in Shoreditch in London in 1932 and grew up there with two sisters and a half sister. Bertram’s father was a “corn dealer’s motor driver,” when young but he later became a “warehouseman”.
Bertram was a “counter assistant” by the time he married in June 1961. They had a daughter and two sons in the years that followed. The first two were born in London and the third in Bracknell, near Reading in Berkshire where the family lived in a flat on the London Road above the “Smith and Sons,” warehouse. The firm employed Bertram as a “caretaker” and a “warehouseman.” His third son came to public attention for being a “leap-year baby” (born on 29th February in 1972). The Reading Evening Post published included a short article and family photograph documenting the happy event on Friday 10th March 1972.
The family lived in Bracknell from 1968 until at least 1979. All three of Bertram’s children married and the sons have both had sons of their own, so the family line doubtless continues. Bertram died in Berkshire in 2003. His widow may still be alive as far as I know.
