Bernice Reynolds and George A Reid - children
My Grandmother Bernice Isabel Reynolds married George Albert Reid in Sydney in 1901. She endured many pregnancies and between the years of 1901 and 1918 gave birth to a total of twelve children out of whom just two would survive to adulthood - my father, George, and sister Doris. A third child died at the age of about 5/6 in a tragic domestic accident.
As the NSW Registry of BDM’s does not allow, at this time, online searches for births after 1907 I can only record the dates of births of those children born to Bernice and George before 1907…at this stage. Whilst I can however record each child born to the couple, rather than the date of birth I can only at this stage record their date of death as the deaths indexes are searchable online up to 1977. From what I know the children died not too long after birth, sometimes just months.
