Married 2nd husband William Henry Wallace 1910-1920 United States. Son of Irvine Pierson Wallace and Mary A. Miller. William Henry Wallace 1/w Nannie Bell Martin m. 13 Aug. 1898 Obion, Obion Co. TN.

Tombstone for Bertha E. Wallace has her birth year as 1879. On her Record of Funeral in Dyer Co., TN. has her date of birth as March 30, 1885 age at death 49 yrs. 9 mo., 22 da. Cause of Death Kidney Trouble.

Maybe the 1885 birth year on Funeral Record is correct over the 1881 birth year because when she married William H. Brown both mothers had to sign consent of marriage because she would have been 14 years old and underage. Born in 1881 she would have been 18 years old when she married.
