About Bertha Currie

At the 1891 inquest into the death of Bertha Currie, Minnie Dean testified to the living arrangements of the ten children then in their care. She deposed that 'three of the children slept in her bed and four others in small boxes in her room. Two slept with Mr Dean in the lean-to, and one with her adopted daughter Maggie Cameron, in the kitchen' ('The Winton Baby Farmer', North Otago Times, 21 May 1895, p. 1).
