Families covered: Bertie of Ancaster, Bertie of Bersted, Bertie of Kesteven, Bertie of Lindsey, Bertie of Uffington
BE1883 reports that this family first came to England with the Saxons from Bertiland in Prussia. They gave their name to Bersted in Kent. What was probably the senior branch of the family fled England for France at the beginning of the 11th century but returned in the middle of the 12th. | |||||||||||||||
